fair oaks farm

I used to pass Fair Oaks Farm all the time when traveling to the Region for work.  I always wanted to stop but on my way up never allowed enough time and on my way home just wanted to get home.

So, on Sunday when David and I were making the I-65 trek back home from Chicago, the words "oh come on - we're on a road trip!" actually came out of David's mouth.  Can you believe it? this from the kid who hates with a capital H driving!

We should have borrowed a few kids to take with us so we would fit in, but thankfully I am clearly cooking one now so maybe we fit in - at least just a little.

but, I digress. The point is that I love love love cheese and milk and cheesy, milky things.  This place is a gold mine!  You can sample cheese, eat grilled cheese, drink milk, eat ice cream.  Yum-O!  We didn't tour the birthing barn (ew) or any of the activities.  It was purely an eating destination for us.  But, I highly recommend making time to stop next time you are traveling up the dreaded I-65 route to chicago.

now trips to chicago or the region don't seem so bad after all.
