Leaving California meant leaving the home of “It’s the Cheese” and “Happy Cows” promotions (though I never saw a talking cow and I never hope to see one). The commercials have followed me up north, but I am far away from my favorite places to buy cheese. But cheese is everywhere, and now Beecher’s Handmade Cheese, an artisan cheesemaker, has opened up shop in Seattle’s Pike Place Market. Their milk comes from Cherry Valley Dairy, in Duvall.
