Subject: SC - cheese
I've lurked here for several months on the sca-cooks list, not out
ofshyness, but out of a feeling that I had little to contribute - - I'm
verynew to the SCA. But this week, I decided that I would put forth a
besteffort to come-up with something of interest, even if it was based
uponsecondary sources (like the internet). Therefore I present, for your
entertainment, criticism, amusement and use the following chart of cheeses
