More Catching Up - The Covid Questers #s 67 & 68

Covid caught up with us in mid-December which threw a wee hiccup into our pursuit of the 70/70 quest. After a bit of scurrying around on the web, we found two entertaining items we could do from home with Kendall quarantined in the way downstairs and me trying (unsuccessfully) to avoid Covid in the way upstairs.

#67 of the 70/70 Quest: Cheese Making Class!

Kendall Miller, the consummate student

Even before Covid, we had been looking around for a cooking class. Art of Cheese came to the rescue with a "Holiday Appetizers and Desserts" cheese-making class offered via Zoom. They did a great job of providing easy to follow instructions and demonstrations, introducing us to the making of three kinds of cheese: Quark, Chevre (Fromage Blanc if not using goat's milk), and Mascarpone and then how to turn those cheeses into a variety of appetizers and desserts. I see a cheese making and tasting fest in our future with Chocolate Chevre Truffles and Mascarpone Stuffed Dates high on the list of tasty treats.

#68 of the 70/70 Quest: Audio Information Network of Colorado (AINC) Holiday Concert!

...and now there were two of us with Covid.  No matter! The quest continues thanks to AINC (where I currently volunteer and Kendall had volunteered for years) which came through with a Zoom Holiday Concert that Kendall could watch from the downstairs and I could watch from the upstairs with texting and hollering going back and forth. We did manage one quick peek at each other mid-concert when Kendall offered a sing-along performance.
