Cheeseheads

Christy Lee is a vivacious lover of life. Being around her is akin to absorbing sunlight after weeks of gloomy days. Mrs. G. arrived at Christy Lee and her husband Donny's house and within a half-an-hour, she and Mrs. G. were on the road to explore. Their first stop was Culvers for Mrs. G's first taste of Wisconsin cheese curds. It's hard to argue with fried cheese.
Curds consumed, they toured the historic Milton house which was built by Joseph Goodrich and is believed to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad.
Christy Lee and Mrs. G. squeezed through the underground tunnel which connects the main building to a nearby cabin.
Next stop: the Wisconsin State Capitol.
It's a gorgeous building, and Mrs. G. and Christy Lee infiltrated a Maryland Boys Choir's guided tour and learned the ins and outs of the of the capitol's architecture and artwork.
Hey, Christy Lee.
What up, Wisconsin?
Mrs. G. and Christy Lee met up with some derfs at the Bonfyre American Grille. Melissa, Tanya and Jenny make a toast with their various flavored mousses.
A sugar-coated three way.
These were some of the funniest women on the tour: Lindsay, Jenny, Christy Lee, Tanya and Melissa. It was difficult to reign in the laughter...
and even more difficult to say goodbye.
Thank you, Christy Lee and Donny, for the comfortable couch and the great coffee. You two newlyweds are crackerjack.

Glad to see the good times are still rolling!
Deep fried cheese! Despite my Wisconsin connections, that is something I have never tried...
Looks like a great stop on the Derfwad Tour!
Oh they are adorable. And I often cross the border for real cheese curds from Wisconsin.
Cheese curds ... You're truly a Midwesterner now, Mrs. G. Congrats!
All these new things that you have tried...How fun!
Fired cheese curds, hard to imagine that they wouldn't be just wonderful! Sounds and looks like you had a great time.
Now that you've had the official food of Wisconsin (other than beer), might I suggest that the next Derfpalooza be a tour of various state fairs? Then you could try all of these delicacies, but on a stick!
Wish I would have known you were going to be in Milton, that I might have been able to manage, I'm in Janesville. So glad you had a good time and got to enjoy some of WI finest food.....curds :-)
Claudia's State Fair idea is pure genius. Glad you are having fun Mrs. G!
well good lord you know i would have jumped in for a sugar 3 way- and fired cheese, oh, my stars I am so there.
Mrs. G you do know how to roll.
I want to meet all this long lost family.
Group hug from Hugs Galore
Looks like a blast. And how cute is Christy's new husband?
Fried cheese......heaven!
Julie M - Wish we had known. There were a few of us coming up from the area - you could have hitched a ride. :0)
Mrs. G, it was a blast!
*sigh* It was such a good time.
It was stuff that memoirs are made of!
I know firsthand what a great woman Melissa is, so I am sure you had amazing conversation and fun in Wisconsin
