I voted today.

You are not allowed to complain about the result in any way unless you vote.

Big election day in Wisconsin.

Will it be Barrett or Walker?

Totally Madtown

Last Saturday, we had a totally Madtown kind of day.  Our friend Megan was visiting from Kansas city and we wanted to show her some classic Madison things.

We started with breakfast at Mickies Dairy Bar, a Madison classic.  Great old fashion diner with greasy comfort food and malts that still come with the tin (yes, we had chocolate malts for breakfast)!

Then it was on to the farmers market where we picked up a loaf of Stella's spicy cheese bread and some sweet pickles... and of course the mandatory picture in front of the capitol.

We ended the day at Brat Fest.  Yes, we have a festival all about brats.  But it was pretty great because it was free admission, they had live music, and the brats were pretty darn good.

I am so excited for my first full summer in Madison!

Mother's Day on a Dairy Farm

Sunday, Fisch and I went to his cousin's annual pot luck at their dairy farm in Western WI.  The day was spent the nicest, down to earth people I have ever met, eating yummy food, riding horses, playing in the hay loft, and visiting the baby cows. 

Fisch and I decided that we need to move to the country someday.
