Just like with the chocolate shop in Missouri, a sweet start to the day just makes the world a brighter place...especially when you're all not much of morning people to begin with.
The Jelly Belly's Warehouse tour is unique in the sense that you take the entire tour from the comfort of their custom train and get to learn about the entire jelly bean making process from start to finish! Including how new flavors were introduced to the line, like the blue bean they created for Ronald Reagan's Red, White, & Blue Jelly Bean Inauguration gift!
Being one of the last Fridays of Lent, we got some really good sushi for lunch! Having never really tried actual sushi before, Jeanette and Jennifer were in for a treat. Jeanette loved every bit of it---Jennifer thought it was interesting...kind of like eating an aquarium...
After trying all of the Mars Cheese Castle's samples (including the infamous "squeaky" cheese curds), our Wisconsin Family got a block of nine year old aged cheddar, and it came with very specific instructions.
1) Break off a tiny piece, you don't want to try to eat more than your taste buds can handle at once.
2) Stick the piece on the top of your tongue and push it to the roof of your mouth.
3) As it melts, let your senses take you to a beautiful place that only Wisconsin cheese knows how to get to.
And then you better go check out the cheese isle at the local grocery store.
Be sure to bring an extra cart.
Thank you to our fantastic Wisconsin Family! It was so much fun to spend time going on adventures with you involving coffee, cheese, ice cream, funny & sad movies, and well, some more coffee. You're the greatest! We miss you and King Jorge already!
"I get up in the morning to find and experience the joy I felt every day as a kid."
Racine, Wisconsin is adored by food lovers everywhere for being the home of Kringles (yes, like Santa's street name, Kris Kringle). A light pastry, similar to a Danish, Kringles marvelously compliment your morning cup of coffee...your afternoon cup of coffee...your even---well, you get the picture. Now, all you need is a Kringle! We got a few different e kinds and made our own assorted packs!
To Dear Friends, Lots of Dairy, and Days like These,
Love,
The Crew
