the remaking of a kitchen

oh my goodness. i went shopping for groceries today and hit 3 different stores. the co-op for various herbs, seeds and nuts, oh, and some dried figs. then to byerly's because i had a coupon for some olive oil at a terrific deal. i felt i had to buy something else and wandered to the cheese area and chose a little treat for us. it's the point reyes original blue cheese from farmstead cheese company. it is so unbelievably good, creamy, bluey and just the right texture. yes, i do like it a lot. this makes me KNOW that i need to investigate the local artisanal cheese makers, in the two states and buy some of theirs soon.
oh, i also went to the local grocery and got some salmon and asparagus for our dinner, and a loaf of bread is in the oven. i plan to use the seeds etc from the co-op to make dakota bread - something i discovered the last time i ate at cafe latte'. it was so nutty, seedy and fiberously delicious i googled a recipe and found one. it's up next!
