handfastings and houseguests and the lack of a cheese castle
Happy belated birthday, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
azurelunatic and nostrademons!
Last week was the week of visiting babies (Aaron and Liane's,idonotlikepeas and girlgonemad). This week is the week of handfastings and houseguests, with a visiting elemmire7 through Thursday, the Scooperbowl and assorted festivities (tagged after the fact to preserve pseudo-elopement surprise, congrats to the two involved!), and ending Sunday chez jpallan and crschmidt's. Busy busy!
However, I must note that Andrew is in trouble *grin*. Even though I haven't talked to him in awhile now. Because the summer of the year we were dating, I went out to visit him in Kenosha. Twice. And somehow, he failed to inform me about the Mars Cheese Castle. I had to learn about it fromhyounpark and elemmire7 tonight! We were talking about weddings and what one considers important at them, and how the people who own Cabot Cheese spent most of their money on flowers at their wedding. I think I made a remark of, "Geez, I think I'd spend that money on, well, cheese!" and that's how it came up.
But the important part is THERE IS A CHEESE CASTLE AND MY EX-BOYFRIEND WHO LIVED IN THAT TOWN FAILED TO TAKE ME THERE WHEN I VISITED. TWICE. He loses at teh Käsenets.

hyounpark and I ended up skipping the Mars Cheese Castle on our way through Wisconsin when we were making our cross-country drive, choosing to check out the Dane County Farmers' Market in Madison instead, given our limited time. But we bought plenty of cheese at Fromagination and ate all the meats at the Old Fashioned and belted out solidarity songs in the Capitol for kudzita, so that mostly made up for it.

However, should you ever land within 150 miles of Milwaukee again, I will definitely take you and any of yours to Mars Cheese Castle! We even have a Wisconsin tourism map that explicitly lists cheesemakers, specialty cheese shoppes, wineries, breweries, and so forth. It would make quite the delicious weekend trip.
