newsweek-paris-france:

A few of the cheeses at Alléosse on Rue Poncelet, one of the best affineurs (literally: ripeners) in Paris. Note that most of those in the picture are “au lait cru,” made with raw milk, which would make them of questionable legality in the United States, and in many states harder to buy than a gun.

Mmmmm. Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeese.

“What a long strange trip it’s been! 35 years ago today Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield started serving homemade ice cream out of a renovated gas station in Burlington, VT. 35 years later we’re still on the same mission to make the best possible ice cream while giving back to our communities.”

Street Lit

Putting a message on a wall can be a much more effective way to reach the masses than expecting them to go find a book and learn it themselves. Some men just want to watch the world learn, regardless of medium. This collection of street arts details some memorable lines from famous books, hit the pictures to see which author and title, if you didnt already recognize them immediately.
