"When walking, walk. When eating, eat." · Zen Proverb Can you believe we are already talking turkeys?? It's been said that the older you get, the faster time goes, and we are beginning to believe it! The holiday season opens up new opportunities for us to get creative, and to share ideas with each of you. This time of year gives us the opportunity to take in and appreciate the people we love, and of course, the food we love. So, dig in! On the cheese front: <http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs142/1108583401734/img/18.jpg> New from Doe Run Dairy! Some amazing Jersey cow milk cheeses, full of flavor and body. Our favorites are Barn Owl, a soft ripened, washed rind cheese that has a rich, creamy texture and nutty flavor and Seven Sisters, a hard, aged cow milk cheese that is reminiscent of an Alpine Swiss, nutty with fruity notes on the finish. The River View Tomme is a very special goat milk cheese from River View Dairy. Aged over 60 days with a natural rind, the interior paste is dense and smooth, while the flavor is mild and slightly earthy. Try pairing this cheese with apples and pears or other tart fruit. The Brebis from Highland Sheep Dairy is one of the best fresh cheeses around. This creamy, decadent, spreadable sheep milk cheese is perfect paired with beets and braised greens or just simply on toast with honey! We are bringing in new cheeses each week. Our offerings change based on availability, each unique and, let's be honest, delicious! What's HOT TURKEYS! Thanksgiving means family, friends, thanks, and.....turkey!

We had the opportunity to spend time with students at the Student Sustainability 'Show and Tell' at Carnegie Mellon, where student groups displayed and discussed the Environmental and Sustainable projects they have been working on. We were also lucky enough to attend a lecture by Melinda Hemmelgarn on food and the media, which explored the factors that affect our good food choices and food literacy. After the talk - we all ate more Wild Purveyors Cheese!! We were also thrilled to share our knowledge and passion with local University students at Pitt through tasting, talking and sharing ideas at the William Pitt Union! A big thanks to all of the students we spoke to--keep your ideas coming!! Thank you for your continued support, and for giving us the opportunity to us to bring sustainable, healthy and delicious foods from local farms to your table.
