So, the best reason, in case you didn't know, to go to the "Great Minnesota Get Together" is the food. Sonny and I have kept track the last two years of all the things we have tried, so that when people ask what we had, we can tell them. Here's this year's list. And let me mention that it's a lot but it works out so much better when you share everything over the course of the day, that way it doesn't seem as overwhelming when you order something, and you get to try more things.
1. Shrimp on a stick
2a. Lefse for me
2b. Reuben on a stick for Sonny
3. Wild Rice Burger with cheese and grilled onions
4. Buffalo Chips (waffle fries flavored like buffalo wings)
5. Cinni Minis (took over half of those home)
6. Strawberry Smoothie
7. Corn on the cob (2 for one ticket...can't beat that!)
8. Crab cakes
9. Walleye cakes
10. Bottle of Water
11a. Pickle Dog for me
11b. A pretzel rod for me
11c. A beer for Sonny
12. Blackened Chicken on a stick
13. Sweet Martha's Chocolate Chip Cookies (the big pail to take most of them home)
14. Milk to go with the cookies
We also got our soda quota sharing two Cokes, two Dews, two Root Beers, and one Orange Crush. Needless to say, Sonny was feeling sick when we got home and didn't sleep well, and I had to get up and take a Tums during the night. But it was a ton of fun!
