The cheese guy Marc Bates of Cannon Beach has a lot to share about cheese at a workshop May 30

arc Bates, aka the Cheese Guy, will present a one-day Introduction to Cheese and Cheese Making Workshop from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, May 30 at the Cannon Beach Community Center. Cheese lovers, cheese likers, or even if you’re simply curious, Marc Bates is your go-to guy. He’s up to date with the latest trends and topics in an ever-growing cheese-consuming world. Be it the basics or the boutiques; American-made or imported; pasteurized or raw, with 45 years of experience in the dairy industry, if it’s cheese-related, he’s got game. â€?Starting out with what the heck is it, why do we make it, and a short history course (short being the operative word — according to a bevy of sources on the Internet, cheese PDGH LWV ÂżUVW DSSHDUDQFH VRPHZKHUH LQ $VLD between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago when a man on a camel found the milk in his saddle bag had separated), we’ll divide cheese into seven categories, which is an industry standard,â€? said Bates about the intro to cheese course. “It’s a good number to taste and understand what make cheeses different or similar, what makes different cheeses different colors, and what produces hard or soft textures. Cow’s milk, sheep’s milk, and goat’s milk, and sometimes a mix, there’s always something new on the horizon.â€? If you ask him about buffalo, reindeer, camels and yak’s milk — he’ll have an answer. An afternoon of hands-on instruction provides the class with an opportunity to turn milk into curds and whey, and then into cheese. It’s a day all mixed together sure to include a few lifetime-spent-with-cheese insider stories scattered throughout. Most of all, it’s a unique opportunity to learn from a master. Bates and cheese were destined. Raised on a dairy farm located between Burlington and Arlington, Washington, he has experienced a lifetime involvement with milk in one capacity or another. “I went to Washington State University to learn to make cheese. I didn’t know that when I went there, but that’s what happened,â€? said Bates. His diploma lists a degree in dairy manufacturing — the last of its kind. The following year the same area of

study was renamed and rebranded as a degree in food sciences. Two years in the food services branch of the U.S. Army followed graduation. Once again, fate was waiting. Bates processed out of the army. A WSU management position in the food sciences department opened up. He applied, was hired and remained for the next 27 years. He went to school learning to make cheese, returning to manage it. In the late 1930s, way before Bates, the U.S. government and American Can Company funded research at WSU’s creamery.

More than 80 percent of them, sold nationwide, are Cougar Gold, each selling for around $22. Bates retired — or tried to. Moving to Cannon Beach, his attempt was short lived. The Oregon State University creamery in Corvallis hadn’t made cheese for 40 years but was gearing up to go at it again. OSU Dairy Processing Extension Specialist Lisbeth Goddik heard Bates was in the area. “We talked him out of retirement to have him help us get the start-up right,â€? she said. “We were so fortunate that Marc came and helped us start up the cheese pro-

gram, which produces the Beaver Classic (the friendly, so they say, WSU Cougar Gold competitor). He did a fantastic job. He’s wonderful at everything he does. He still helps with short courses at the university, helping artisan cheese makers.â€?

‘All The Better To Kill You With’ auditions

Missoula Children’s Theatre

The Barn Community Playhouse has multiple roles available TILLAMOOK — The Tillamook Association for the Performing Arts (TAPA) has open auditions for “All The Better To Kill You With,� a classic whodunit with a twist, where we not only get to see whodunit, but also how they plan they whole thing and carry it out. Written by Fred Carmichael and directed by Brett Duer, “All The Better To Kill You With� is a clever interweaving of truth and false-

hood that produces a tapestry of tension. The carefully planned deception almost works until truth rears its head and a brilliant structure of cunning topples. The audience sees everything, so the question is not “whodunit,� so to speak, but rather will the murderer be found out. The result is high tension and good dramatic excitement. Auditions will be held at The Barn Community Playhouse, starting promptly at 1

In the same gentle nudge to find a different kind of creativity, she was convinced to join Trail’s End Art Association in Gearhart and with the encouragement of members there began painting in earnest. Currently, she works primarily in acrylics and handmade papers – but will use any medium necessary once she decides what she

wants to create. In the last 10 years, she has received Best of Show awards and also People’s Choice awards twice at Trail’s End’s annual juried show; and an honorable mention at the international Au Natural competition among several other awards including her work at the permanent display of Oregon Coast artists at the Oregon Coast Arts Commission

Visual Arts Center Showcase in Newport. Paino answered some questions regarding her art. What or who most inspired you to be an artist? I think for a lot of us, things like art and music pick us rather than the other way around. I always wanted to do art, and most children yearn to do it as well. Unfortunately it is often discouraged rather than nourished. But my mother took me to a Trail’s End Art Center children’s class when I was 10 years old, and around the same time, a friend of the family gave me a wooden box filled with oil paint to stop me from stealing my aunt’s begonias to crush and make watercolors. What medium do you prefer and why? I like to work with acryl-

ics when doing realism. But right now I am fascinated with creating a palette of colors on different papers, and then painting with those papers along with acrylics on canvas or paper. If I pay attention to the journey that design can take me, it takes a chaos of a flurry of papers, and makes it into patterns that are more about the natural world than the nonorganic world. It is about that journey more than the result that has personal meaning. What do you like best about your work? The process is what I like best. It’s why I think of it as a journey. I love being in a state where coffee gets cold and I forget to do the dishes. It’s a nice place to go, but it is also gratifying and energizing when someone else likes what I’m doing, too.

BUTTERCUP

B

Buttercup in Nehalem makes chowder, such as traditional clam chowder, left, and Thai veggie chowder, right to order.

Restaurateur returns with novel take on chowder and ice cream Buttercup prepares chowders in a way I’d never imagined: to order. After stepping up to the counter and choosing from the four varieties, owner Julie Barker turns to the gas stove, puts down a pot and gets to work. Under the industrial burners are drawers full of ingredients — sliced potatoes, celery, carrots and so on. Into the pot they go, along with spices, cream and all the rest. Then, into the New Traditional Clam Chowder ($10 for 16 ounces, $18 for 32 ounces), go the clams, which have been heretofore kept raw. “They cook very quickly,â€? Barker says of clams, “and this way they don’t get rubbery.â€? ,QGHHG VHUYHG VWHDPLQJ KRW DQG Âż QLVKHG LQ the bowl with a dollop of red pepper butter, the substantial strips of locally sourced razor clams emerge with robust texture. The vegetables too DUH Âż UP IUHVK DQG FULVS ,Q D buttery cream base the tastes of the individual components maintain more of their individual character than in traditionally prepared chowder, where everything melds into a homogenized paste. It’s a novel approach and, my goodness, does it work. Considering Barker’s history, perhaps Buttercup’s success is no surprise. Before opening on April 3, Barker was behind two renown North Coast eateries: She spent 16 years as the proprietor of Manzanita’s Blue Sky Cafe before moving on to open Bread and Ocean, a bakery, deli and caterer, in 2003. Barker sold Bread and Ocean last winter then got right back to work on Buttercup. With counter service and no real dining area, Buttercup does two things, chowder and ice cream, expertly. The decision to focus narrowly, Barker says, was driven by past experience: At her prior restaurants everyone wanted chowder and ice cream. The challenge of starting anew seems to inspire Barker. Both the Blue Sky Cafe and Bread and Ocean were successful — and even beloved — under her watch. (After she left, Blue 6N\ UHSRUWHGO\ Ă€ DJJHG 7R QRXULVK KHU PXVH at Buttercup, she plans an ever-changing menu, heavy on collaboration. Each month she plans to work with local chefs and providers to create new chowders and ice creams.

base is every bit as creamy as those using milk, though it reminds more of a curry than a chowder (and that’s not a bad thing!). A sumptuous mix of veggies, including carrots, cabbage, asparagus, leeks, fried shallots and more, the Veggie Chowder is a textural delight. Shitake mushrooms even recreate a clam’s texture. Truly, Buttercup’s vegetarian and vegan options are more than compromised afterthoughts — they’re every bit as hearty, rich and wellthought-out as the options for omnivores. (Such results, says Barker, are the product of many years in a relationship with a vegan.) The carnivorous, however, might also try the Prawn & Fennel Chowder ($10 for 16 ounces, $18 for 32 ounces). With a generous helping of sliced prawns, it was simple, slightly sweet, subtly — but expertly — spiced and, on a cold, gray day, supremely satisfying. (For what it’s

Indeed, after spending nearly three decades running other restaurants on the North Coast, Barker knows all the best regional sources. They are displayed proudly: Misty Meadow Farm eggs, Jacobsen salts, R-evolution garden produce, Community Supported Fishery, and so on. Barker bestows particular reverence on her milk purveyor: Bennett Family Farm. Besides fundamentally great tastes, Buttercup makes chowder to order that everyone — those with allergies or dietary restrictions, and picky eaters — can partake. It’s a different approach, but thanks to top-notch, local ingredients and an experienced hand, the results are astounding. Traditional makers should take heed: At Buttercup, Barker is — once again — blazing a brand new trail.

ASTORIA — After meeting at the crossroads of blues and folk music in the Pacific Northwest, Ben Hunter and Joe Seamons established themselves as a duo after their first year at the Port Townsend Acoustic Blues Festival in 2012. Delving deeper into their shared love of traditional and communal American musical styles, they developed their sound by adapting the arrangements of luminaries such as Blind Willie McTell to their main instruments: fiddle and banjo. The next year at Port Townsend, Dom Flemons (formerly of the Carolina Chocolate Drops) caught their act, and invited them to North Carolina to form a trio. In 2013, they recorded an album with Flemons and began

touring across the South. Hunter and Seamons’ duo sound matured as they worked with Flemons and explored the cultures that spawned the music they had come to love. Now, as they prepare to release their own album of blues, rags, folk songs and fiddle tunes, they have begun to fuse the gritty hollers of the South with the ethos of their home in the Pacific Northwest. Their debut album was released November 14, 2014.

70 Help Wanted Reporter Make a splash in business journalism by joining the reporting staff of the ambitious Coast River Business Journal, located where the Columbia River and Pacific Ocean meet. This is a highly dynamic and story-filled place, where Portlanders and Seattleites come to make their dreams of coastal living come true. You should arrive here with polished writing skills, a strong work ethic and robust curiosity to delve into the professional lives of some of the Pacific Northwestʼs most creative and imaginative business people. Working in partnership with colleagues at the Chinook Observer, The Daily Astorian, Seaside Signal and Cannon Beach Gazette, Coast River Business Journal produces a monthly print publication. With your geographical beat spanning Clatsop County, Ore., and Pacific County, Wash., you can choose to live on the Long Beach Peninsula, Astoria or Oregonʼs North Coast. While this position is managed from Long Beach, you will also sometimes work from our Astoria and Seaside offices. An important aspect of this job is providing business coverage to several publications, each with a different environment. There will be aspects of breaking business news, in-depth business reporting and “main street” business news. Part of your job will be to continue ramping up our online content for timely and expansive coverage of business news. Healthcare is one of our regionʼs rapidly expanding economic sectors and we want to hear your ideas about how to cover it in ways that are useful to those in the caring professions, as well as engaging for the community members they serve. We have a rising tide of young and second-career entrepreneurs starting new craft breweries, restaurants, retail stores, galleries and online businesses. You will need to be as engaged and creative as they are. Our traditional industries — tourism to forestry, seafood to homes sales/construction, farming of everything from organic vegetables to legal marijuana — all are wide awake and gaining renewed momentum in a fastexpanding regional economy. Weʼll expect you to dig well beyond the superficial and explain where these industries are going, and why. Our coast is comfortable and still affordable. It's a place where our reporters and their families purchase homes and settle in for careers that are richly connected to the Northwest interior. Part of your job will be exploring and explaining the growing ties between our coast and the cities of Puget Sound and northwest Oregon. We offer a competitive wage, a generous benefit package, and a warm and friendly office environment in Mac-based buildings. We work hard but have fun — the ocean beach is a short stroll from our Long Beach and Seaside offices. We enjoy world-class restaurants, fantastic salmon and deep-sea fishing, amazing wildlife and bird watching, and many other outdoor activities. Portland is two and a half hours; Seattle three hours. Benefits include Paid Time Off (PTO), insurances and a 401(k)/Roth 401(k) retirement plan.

The Flavel House Museum

Contributor Matt Love takes a self with some of his Astoria High School students while on a field trip at the Flavel House Museum in Astoria.

A GLIMPSE INSIDE An occasional feature by MATT LOVE

The Flavel House Museum The bus rolled north into town. Destination: the Flavel House Museum. It was a sunny morning in May, and I was riding herd over my English Credit Recovery class from Astoria High School. From time to time, they can be a challenging bunch to engage, but I love their rock and roll hearts in an age when rock is dead. I polled the students and discovered that 14 of 16 students had never set foot inside the Flavel House — and most have lived in Astoria their entire lives. That’s why I take field trips. As I tallied the sad numbers and commented, the bus driver turned to me and said, “I’ve lived in Astoria for 50 years and have never been either.â€? I invited her to join us, but she had another pick up. It was a mob scene at the house; a cruise ship had landed earlier. We ventured inside Capt. Flavel’s former domicile, and I let the students find their own way through deep-paneled history. “Just be cool,â€? I said. They were. At one point, I bumped into Luis, and he told me, looking at the high ceilings, “Mr. Love, I think I’d be smarter if I lived in this house.â€? Another student, Shayla, said, “You’ll be sure to get some ghost shots in here; they’re attracted to me.â€? Two other students, Leoba and Becky, shared the story of the other Flavel House in town with several tourists and delighted them with the tale. Several of us rallied in one of the parlors and found ourselves standing in front of a huge oval mirror. Naturally, one of the students wanted to take a selfie. To liven things up, I threw us all in the frame together for posterity ‌ or at least 15 seconds of fleeting fame. A few minutes later, we

Origin:

1400s. Related to the Greek ਌ Äą ĘŒČ‘ ČĄ ÄŽ or Hespera, one of the three sunset nymphs in Greek mythology, whose name means, “Light of Evening,â€? and is commonly associated with the planet Venus, this particular offshoot comes into English through a Latinate of the same spelling by way of the Middle French, vesper, both meaning, “evening star.â€? In some branches of Catholicism, Vespers is the name of the evening prayer service, and is colloquially known as the vesper hour. The date on which Irish immigrant William Johnston named the area in Clatsop County for the evening star is unknown, though Johnston established the

first U.S. Post Office there in 1879 and would go on to build the town’s first church out of good, local Douglas fir. “Vesper is not now a post office, although it had been in the past. —Lewis A. McArthur, “Oregon Geographic Names,� Oregon Historical Quarterly, Vol. 28, No. 2, June, 1927, p. 195

“The late storm has caused the Clatskanie-Mist-Vesper mail carrier a considerable amount of trouble, as travelling was very difficult between Mist and Vesper, owing to the rapidly rising river, bridges out, etc. But Tom is not a fellow to give up and he managed to get Uncle Sam’s mail through to Mist from Vesper, when he pressed L. O. Vadnais into service by having him bring the mail over the mountain by auto.� —Chief, “Clatskanie.,� St. Helens Mist, Friday, December 31, 1915, p. 3
