I've never tried spicy gouda but I know jalapeno cheddar is awesome. Habanero cheddar is pretty good also and I don't like habaneros.

I can get a lot of different chilies here. We are an Ethnic city here with people from Mexico and India. Davis has an Asian market too.

The cheese will get a bit sharper over the 30 days. Monterrey jack is not too strong tasting. The texture was great too! Better than the cheddar was. The cheddar tasted good but I messed up on the curds so it was a bit grainy.

I am learning!

I'm sure you will perfect the process soon enough!

Today we will be bit cooler which is good news! Another fire stated on Saturday and this one is much closer to Woodland. It is called the Yolo County fire. We had a lot of smoke yesterday

Ya'll stay safe Ron! I hope it stays away from you!

Stay safe please down the all of you @ronott1

Yes! And I get to enjoy the attempts LOL

Ya'll stay safe Ron! I hope it stays away from you!

I am keeping an eye on the safety alerts. The smoke is out of my area today because the wind shifted. Thursday or Friday the wind is supposed to shift back to a north wind and we will likely get some smoke then

Stay safe please down the all of you @ronott1

Thanks!

Plucking normally doesn't destroy the follicles. Otherwise in a few years, women would not have to pluck eyebrows anymore. Hair follicles can be very difficult to damage, or kill. Even professional instruments designed to destroy hair follicles, are not always 100%, and they plainly tell you that when you go in for electrolysis. Even in bald men, many still have intact, but inactive follicles, so Rogaine reactivates the follicle, and the hair starts growing. For those with dead follicles, the hair won't grow anymore. Even with most chemo treatments, hair loss is usually temporary. Yes, there are a couple exceptions to that, but again they are the exceptions, not the rule.

I used to get the corners of my mouth on my upper lip, and a tiny area on my chin waxed. I got tired of paying $20.00 for something I can do just as well with a razor, and there's no pain involved. No, shaving doesn't cause increased thickness, or increased hair growth. That's a wives tale. The facial hair thickness can increase a bit due to the loss of estrogen in mature women.

Ron, practice makes perfect, and the failures are still delicious. Keep at it with the cheddar. I'm sure you will get it perfected.

Ron, stay indoors too. That smoke is very hard on the lungs when intense, and constant. Praying you stay safe.

Dh is worried I will get a beard.
As young men shave to get more hair.
I'm glad it's just a myth! Lol

I have tweezed my eye brows so much in my life - that some areas do not come back.I used to use an eyebrow pencil but, it would sweat off or get rubbed and looked a lot weirder than ones yanked out daily.

"Natural beauty" is just so tiring to accomplish. Chicka don't worry about a beard, I always tweazed a couple stray hairs out and they didn't multiply coming back. But boy some really were long. They must be buried deep under my double chin.
