Herma’s News – Final day of Open House 2017 – Getting into the Spirit of Christmas!
The spirit of Christmas is the spirit of love and of generosity and of goodness. It illuminates the picture window of the soul, and we look out upon the world’s busy life and become more interested in people than in things. – Thomas S. Monson

Emile Henry Tagines
Made from Flame Ceramic, our tagine can be used either directly on the stove or in the oven. The cone shaped lid helps the steam to flow just right for a moist, tender meal and allows you to make delicious tagines, stews and any other recipe which requires simmering.
Complimentary Gift Wrap – Wait time may be in effect.
Keep in mind that due to the high volume of gift wrapping this time of year, please allow 24 hours, if necessary, for your complimentary gift wrap.
Complimentary gift wrap is provided for regular-priced items, $25 or more.
Cheese Department
December is a very exciting time in the cheese department as we now carry a bounty of Christmas cheeses from all over the world. These are cheeses that you may only enjoy during the holidays for entertaining and warm nights in front of the fire.

Featured Cheese
Kirkham’s Lancashire
A high quality Stilton that is one of the best in the world!
What sets the Kirkham’s Lancashire apart is the quality of the milk and the long, slow production process. The first step in the cheese-making is an overnight pre-ripening of the milk, designed to get the native cheese-making bacteria working and active. Graham uses only a tiny amount of starter culture and works the curds carefully to drain them at their own gentle pace over the course of many hours.
The result is a cheese that tastes very much like the milk that was used to make it, with an extraordinarily complex, intense, long-lasting flavour. – Neal Yard Dairy
Cathy will crack open this beauty on Friday. We can’t wait!
We will have Kirkham’s Lancashire out for tasting along with many others for your enjoyment during the final day of our Open House.
