I write like it's my job - because it is! I have a Master's in English and love words: crossword puzzles, Scrabble games, Wordle, and, of course, good, old-fashioned books.
I'm a writer and editor at OnlyInYourState, and a contributing writer at Cincinnati Magazine. I love the Great Outdoors and am endlessly awestruck by this beautiful country of ours. Coffee keeps me going, yoga keeps me sane, my kids keep me grounded, and my writing keeps me inspired.
We’re going to go on the record here, and say something that might be highly controversial. Forget what you know about Midwest dairy; the world’s best cheese curds can be found right here, in Oregon. In fact, we posit that Oregon lays claim to the world’s best cheese, period. We’re talking, of course, about Tillamook, the world-famous Oregon creamery that’s the very best cheesemaker in the country. Once you’ve tried their fried cheese curds, you’ll agree: they’re the best in the world, and they’re made right here in Oregon.
Everything's better with cheddar. And cheddar is better if it's from Tillamook Creamery.
"Cow comfort" is top priority at Tillamook, and they adhere to high care and safety standards. The creamery also utilizes cutting-edge technology to make cow care more efficient.

The folks working at Tillamook Creamery also take a great deal of pride in this cheese... they know it's the best!
Cheese curds are the ultimate portable snack; they're small, peanut-sized pieces of curdled milk with a mild, cheddar flavor. Tillamook's cheese curds are as delicious as they come!
Tillamook cheddar is made from a quality blend of cow's milk that contains just the right amount of protein and butterfat. At the creamery, the milk is given heat shock treatment to ensure the protection of the beneficial enzymes in the milk, while also killing harmful bacteria. What does all this mean?
It means these squeaky lil' bite-sized morsels are insanely delicious! We can't get enough of them... and after trying the cheese curds from Tillamook Creamery for yourself, you'll understand our obsession.
