Frying Cheese

Last week when I returned from a business meeting in Chicago, my colleague who was driving asked if I would mind if we stopped at the Mars Cheese Castle.  We did, and she suggested I try "Frying Cheese".  I bought some, took it home, and prepared it.  It is FABULOUS!   I prefer to slice the cheese about 1/4" x 1 " slices, then fry them.  Because I bought the "plain" cheese I added some hot sauce before popping into my mouth and it is truly delicious.  They do sell it in other varieties like Garlic or JalapeƱo which might be what I try next time I'm on I 94 South.

Preheat a nonstick frying pan or a lightly oiled skillet.  Slice the cheese into 1/2" to 1" cubes.  Drop the cubes on the heated pan and fry about one minute on both sides until golden brown.  Cool slightly and serve warm.

Mistaken Identity

It sounded like maybe our next door neighbor started up his lawn mower.  We're not sure because this neighbor hasn't cut his grass for 2 months, so we hadn't heard that particular sound for awhile, but we were pretty sure.  Ended up to be much louder than a lawnmower...it was the Goodyear Blimp going from Timmerman Airport to Miller Park to cover tonight's Brewer Game.  "Go Brewers!"
