The running of the Cream Puffs
Thursday, August 2nd, 2007No this is not some kind of weird dairy state Wisconsin foot race or a kind of fish. Um, salmon creams puffs, sorry does not work for me. What does work for me is standing in line no matter what the high temps to sink my teeth into an awesome work of damage to my diet, the Wisconsin State Fair Cream Puff. Light and airy pastry with a huge load of whipped dairy cream, topped with a dusting of powder sugar that always ends up everywhere on my face, except my mouth. Yes, the Wisconsin State Fair in Milwaukee as started their 10 day run. So I have 10 days, roughly 200 hours to get my butt in line to taste heaven. If you don’t want to run into the fair, don’t forget their drive up. Where else in the US can you have a drive thru at a State Fair? Every one has the some kind of food on the stick, but we top it with the cream puff drive thru!
This morning I was getting my Vinnie fix on the local NBC channel morning show, hoping that one day they will get them brought into the studio. You just know that the anchor Vinnie will not let you down by providing something, just something, if you get my drift! However they had another person reporting from the opening of the fair, and what did he have in his hand, two big, mouth watering cream puffs. When he put them up so that my 50 plus inch TV had the whole picture those cream puffs, I was ready to dive right in. What torture!
So you better get down to the 80th streets and Interstate 90/94 and get them fast before I eat them up!
