Sorry, pic wasn't as clear as I hoped it would be. This is what I use:

I was shocked when I learned how to make it just how simple it was! I made sea salt and dill a lot, that was yummy! Now I'm craving chevre... Mmm

Do you always use vegetable rennet? I've heard vegetable and animal act a little differently, just curious!

Is that link where you get all your supplies? I bought a bunch from New England Cheesemaking Company but I thought it was kind of expensive. Maybe that's just me being cheap, lol

That looks so good!

FEM, that does look and sound very simple and greatly rewarding! I'm going to have to find some proper milk somewhere, so I can try this...

Oh my! I sure do wish I had fresh milk. I really love the taste of goat cheese from the store. The family thinks it's a little sharp but yummmm.

Wow, that cottage cheese sounds dead simple to make! I really need to get some proper milk. Pity you live so far away, or I'd be round with a jug!

That's essentially how to make ricotta, if I remembemr correctly. So what is the difference between the two, I wonder?

Sounds delicious either way!

Not to be out done by Liqueuer - here's a recipe for Mardi Gras Milk Punch!

Place milk, cream, bourbon, sugar, and vanilla in a blender. Add a handful of ice cubes. Blend until frothy and chilled. Serve with a drizzle of chocolate syrup!

Can't forget good ol' Eggnog. I don't care if it's the "season" or not. At my house it's milk and egg season and what better way to responsibly use up both, lol!
