For When I'm Not a Poor Law Student...

I'm going to admit it - I really like cheese. Like, I'll go to Whole Foods and just sniff various cheeses for 10 minutes (and eventually buy a piece of one to taste over the next few days).

That's why one day, when I have a real job again, I want to do this. That's right, Cheese Boot Camp. From the Murray's website:

Learn from the Murray's what we know best: Cheese! From how cheese is made to the basics of tasting, and everything in between. We've designed this weekend long class to give each student a strong foundation in the world of cheese.

Cheese U is a serious course of study, and will include suggested readings and optional take home assignments. The series will culminate in an exam. Successful completion of the program is awarded with a Certificate of Achievement.

After the 3-day series, complete with lectures, demonstrations and tastings, each student will be able to differentiate cheese styles, describe cheeses in depth, and pair like a pro.

I may be crazy, but I actually want to be able to speak knowledgeably about cheese and be able to understand terms like "nutty flavor" and "smooth finish" (or something like that, those things might not actually apply to cheese).

Cheese boot camp, you heard it here first.
