Early in the morning, when I usually arrive at the bakery, I can easily be accused of entering - zombie like - in search of coffee and brioche or croissant with jam. It's easy to forget that there are wonderful dairy goodies available...to paraphrase that old comedian Henny Youngman - "take the dairy case."
On the top shelf, in the red cap is all natural, homogenized whole milk. Next to that are two different kinds of chocolate milk - regular and dark chocolate - talk about "death by chocolate." Below the chocolate is my favorite, all natural - NON homogenized whole milk...the kind that you have to shake because the cream rises to the top. This is the kind that used to get delivered to our parents, grand parents and great-grand parents. Sometimes, when no one is looking and I'm the first one to open the bottle, I dip my finger in take a taste...don't tell the rest of my family. A glass of this milk with with Pepperidge Farms milk chocolate Milano cookies - heaven. On the left side of the middle shelf - Big bottle, green cap - that's 2% milk.
On the bottom shelf, small bottle, green cap in the middle - Goat's milk. Go on line, compare the nutritional value between goat and cow milk...Goat rules...I tried it and like it a lot. I thought perhaps a hint of sweetness more than regular milk. There's also quart bottles of half and half and half gallon bottles of dark chocolate and chocolate milk.
Happy Belated Birthday, Michael
and thank you for your Moroccan Carrot Soup
