Maitre d'Fromage...

What a wonderful conversation tonight! Wow! While having dinner with a customer and friend we had a chance to talk to the Cheese Master at the steak house where we had dinner. They offer an impressive assortment of atisanal cheeses and her knowledge was staggering! She is just 30 years old but what a love of cheese and such expertise. It was great to hear her passion for her subject (and the tasting was awesome, too!) and afterward she stopped by to talk about her travels, experiences and how she came to be there.

Turns out she was an international studies major in college and just happened onto the study of cheeses. There are no classes it is all self taught! In talking with her I asked who filled in for her when she was not working and she said she is looking for a full time assistant but it is hard to find someone interested in learning about cheeses. Sounds like the perfect job to me!

I asked if she'd be willing to teach a college student about cheeses during the summer and she gushed at the chance. She gave me her card and asked me to please have my daughter call her. She'd give her a job for the summer and help her find a place to stay in DC! What a great opportunity! You can learn about cheese, where they come from, the areas, topography and the makers. Way cool! Sound great for an international studies major.

Anybody know one? Hint, hint!
