COUNTDOWN TO BLOOMSDAY Who the hell ate cheese in Ulysses? And check out the price.
'Ripe for the Moment
The entirety of James Joyce’s Ulysses takes place on June 16th, a date that now commemorates the author, as well as his main character, Leopold Bloom. To celebrate Bloomsday next Saturday, pints will be a-pouring from Dublin to Brooklyn as Joyceans frolic, and at the market, Cato Corner will be cutting perfectly aged, caramel-sweet, crumbly wedges of their raw-milk, year-old Bloomsday cheese. If you neglected to celebrate National Grilled Cheese Month (April), kill two birds with this recipe. ($26 per pound for the year-old Bloomsday, $21 per pound for the regularly available six-month Bloomsday, at Cato Corner, available Saturday).'

(Yeah, fine, Bloom eats a Gorgonzola cheese sandwich in Lestrygonians...)
