The Grazing Hour

My favorite joke to make is telling our workshop students to “say cheese” when I’m taking pictures 😄🦷

Todays Tasty Tuesday is brought to you by Rana and it’s a loaded one so strap in:
*
First my bite is a rosemary crisp, brie, and a slice of red pear. I love the sweet of the fresh fruit with the brie, similar to jam but more fresh!
*
My song is Hope by We Came As Romans. To me this song is about persevering, not settling for less in our circumstances or ourselves. A little backstory: the band lost its lead vocalist Kyle Pavone in 2018, and it was a huge loss for both them and their fan base. Kyle was a crucial organ to the bands make up, full of life and energy on stage and in sound, passionate and accessible to fans. But Kyle was struggling and eventually lost his battle with mental health, a fate too many reach too soon. Since this lost the band has not only stayed together but grown stronger, putting out amazing music and keeping Kyle’s spirit alive by advocating for mental health help! The song I chose is just one example, their discography is full of songs of hope, pre and post Kyle, and we’ll all never stop saying his name 🖤
*
To learn more about his story and what’s being done after to help others who suffer from mental health issues I encourage you to check out and never lose hope 🤍

One of my favorite things about charcuterie is the flexibility-picky (mini) eaters? No problem, we’ll turn anything into a rose 😉 We’ve got chicken, salami, and turkey-where are you going first?

Who is The Grazing Hour?
The Grazing Hour is Rana and Trevor! Started by Rana in 2020 after the world went to hell she thought “why not start a charcuterie business?”. She made boards and built a reputation in the community for being “the cheese queen”.
Then on one late night grocery store run she heard from under her earbuds “is that The Story So Far, on your hoody?”.
Trevor and Rana had met and became best friends sharing their love of music and nature. One thing led to another and they fell in love. So much so Trevor quit his job to run The Grazing Hour with Rana. With the help of their community they partnered with making Charcuterie for them and using the commercial kitchen they have. They also got engaged during all of that! With a wedding planned for June and business steadily growing nothing can stop the Grazing Hour!
🧀
🧀
If you read all of that thank you! We just wanted to share little behind the cheese story for all the new faces around here! Again thank you everyone for the continued support and love.

Todays Tasty Tuesday is brought to you by Trevor.
My tasty bite is a cracker topped with cucumber, and smoked salmon! In the background I have Little Green House by spinning. Anxious are new comer to the emo/hardcore scene but are taking it by storm with huge catchy chorus and emotional lyrics willing to strike feeling in anyone. My favorite songs off this album are Growing Up Song and Speechless. The album as a whole is a masterpiece!

You asked and we’re answering! We’d like to introduce to you Tasty Tuesday-where we’ll share with you our favorite charcuterie-esque bites along with some of our favorite songs (that last part thanks to .daydreams 😉) Our goal is to have a little more fun on here, inspire you to try some combinations you might not have come up with on your own, and share our love of music with you lovely grazers♥️
🧀
Today’s taste is brought to you by Rana- brie and pepper jelly atop a crisp. If I could put that pepper jelly on everything I eat I would! The song I chose is Full Circle by Movements-a song about real emotions and real struggles but also about believing that you can overcome!

01/10/2023
