I learned about a new cheese term today - something called a burrata.

It's round, about the size of a large apple, with an outer layer of white cheese with the soft texture of bocconcini - and inside is a semi-solid cheese, kind of a creamy mixture of cheese curds.

I ordered the "burrata pizza" for my lunch, and it had the most delicious salami on it, and in the middle the ball of cheese!
 
ok i will definitely try it, where did you buy it? in person or online?

... two pages later, I finally get a chance to post my reply. :)

I got this little thing: Belton Farm Vintage Red Leicester at the local Woolworth's. It was on sale ($6.50 for a block instead of $9), so I thought why not. Belton Farm is also an independent, family-run British business founded in 1922 and located in the Shropshire countryside, and exporting all over the world, so they know what they're doing. :)

Thomas Dux Red Leicester is also reasonably priced and delicious with plain crackers. It was originally an Aussie grocer, but is now unfortunately only available in the Aussie Woolworth's.

Dark_Indigenous_Prince, I can see you're in Los Angeles. Maybe (just maybe?) you can find either of those in LA? I'm not sure.
 
Adjustments were made at the writers group for adults: no more trigger warnings, and cold readings are allowed instead of always having to submit work via some internet program a week in advance of the meeting. We also convinced the facilitator that she didn't need to provide weekly learning programs, which are a lot of extra work for her. She teaches at the college and though she didn't really want to teach courses on the weekend, she felt obligated to teach. Next week, we're letting her come down from the podium, moving all the tables to face each other, and turning the meetings toward support and critique instead of remaining an exercise in formal academia.

Yup. No need to over think it.
 
Now if we can just tone down the guy who touts the value of using AI to generate work... He apparently teaches workshops in how to cheat using AI, so has a financial interest in encouraging people to bypass learning to write.
