Here's something near and dear to Lassa's Antipodean heart: a grill-centric episode of Cheese TV, starring the ever-elegant Mme. Fromage, fresh tomatoes, and marinated goat cheese from Australia!

You can read and watch more of the Mme. at her blog, http://madamefromage.blogspot.com/

While at the Craft Brewers Conference, Lassa and I stumbled into the Pink Boots Society, http://pinkbootssociety.org/,  annual meeting. Quite unlike the 5/1 men/women ratio in the rest of the conference, the room was jammed with women in brewing; brewmasters, QA specialists, pub owners, marketers, retailers, distributors, etc. There were seasoned pros and newbies.

Sebbie Buhler of Rogue Ales (and label model on Rogue Chocolate Stout) introduced us as culture founders, and urged all pink booters (ies?) to discover cheese. And afterward, we got the chance to meet many of them.

Tenaya, aka Madame Fromage, has graciously allowed us to re-post her inaugural episode. We're looking forward to more Cheese TV in the future!
