We Love The Loaf!

We are so glad that Tillamook cheese has started a tour, "Bringing tasty cheese to the people."



And yes, if you are thinking it sounds familiar...almost exactly two years ago I posted about getting some of this cheese in the mail! :)

Tillamook cheese and I go way back to high school when I was able to take a trip with Amanda and her family to Oregon. Tillamook, Oregon to be exact! :) Her Aunt and Uncle live there so we enjoyed quite a few days touring the Oregon coast, including the ice cream and cheese factory in Tillamook. It was such an amazing trip with wonderful memories, and one we plan to take when the kids are a bit older! I was quite disappointed that they didn't have it on the East coast (although today they said Trader Joes does...not that Melissa will need to know that ;) ) and thrilled that we are able to buy it in Texas.

Amanda let me know that they were coming our way, so the calendar was marked. I debated about going as Lorelei is still iffy on how she is feeling, but she was going to be terribly disappointed if we didn't go, so out we went. Brad even went along on his lunch break! We got coupons and buttons and recipes and it was fun talking to them about the tour they are doing. The picture of the kids inside is the one the lady took with her ipad and put on their website...if you can tell it isn't to my standards but trying to get them both to look was crazy...probably since it wasn't a camera! :)

And oh how nice it was to get out of the house! :)

  1. So funny, my mom went to Tillamook with a college friend YEARS (or more accurately, decades :-)) ago and still talks about her visit and their cheese.
