So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Cheesy Goodness at Wisconsin Craft Fairs

By Rick Amorey

Wisconsin is very well-known for their cheeses, that's why their known as America's Dairyland. Really, Wisconsin has the definite know-how on making cheese much better than any other state. Our products can even reach the caliber of global products. But, we're going a bit too far; let's keep the discussion closer to home.

We have found the perfect way to celebrate Wisconsin's skill with cheese. Cheese Days is a celebration that occurs biannually, and here we celebrate this dairy product of different varieties. Besides the obvious presence of cheese, you will also enjoy the traditional things that you will see in a fair; there are rides that your kids will enjoy, club stands, and of course, the craft shows.

The craft show is where I usually lounge, myself. I have a certain appreciation for the physical forms of art, you see; whether it's for carving pieces out of wood or a skill with embroidery. It's just so fun to simply look around and enjoy the talent surrounding you. As an added bonus, I get to nibble on some brie or limburger cheese. Not everyone can make crafts, but everyone can appreciate the level of skill involved in making one.

If you are a native of Wisconsin, and you have taken up crafting, it may be a good idea to show it off at Cheese Days. You'll definitely receive attention; I for one like to go past every booth and talk to the craftspeople. I hear interesting stories of inspiration that way.

But, as it happens, Cheese Days only happen on even-numbered years. But this is no reason to despair, as there are still a lot of crafts shows that happen in Wisconsin all year around. There are listings online for these events; the Internet is a bulletin board that is used to reach a bigger audience. See you on the next Cheese Days!
