MLKBTCH is a tongue in cheek name born behind the cheese counter with my female co-workers (and friends), where we also cheekily referred to ourselves, in comeraderie, as the milkmaids. It is a who and a what.

The who, is me, a championer of women in the dairy industry and advocate of the history, culture, and relationship of humans and ruminants. And yeah, maybe I’m a bit more b*tch, than I am maid.

The what of it all being a disbatch of sorts. Writings, musings, photos, etc. that share this deep love of the world of cheese and that celebrate the profound aesthetics of it all.
