Merkt's Cheese

I forgot to tell you about one of my favorite holiday foods…Have you ever tried Merkt's cheese?  This processed cheese spread out of Bristol, Wisconsin has been a family staple for years.  I tend to stay clear of things like processed cheese spreads…but you have to keep your comfort foods around at Christmas.  My favorite

New York, I hear you calling my name...

Almost time for the annual trip to the big city.  I look forward to this mini vacation all year.  We've been doing it regularly for 8 years (with one year hiatus in there somewhere).  This year, we're flying my dad in as well.  Should be a great time.
