*Originally posted by Athena *St. Urho pointed out, the Marquette area got 301 inches last year. The same link states that we’ve exceeded 250 inches in 4 of the past 7 years. I don’t know what you’re comparing things to, but to me, 250+ inches counts as a really good winter. Beat that, trolls!
As for pasties, yup, the homemade ones are best. We live about a block and half from a pasty shop, so pasties are on the menu quite a bit at the Athena household. Lil’ pockets of yumminess!
I see noone here has mentioned Cudighi, my favorite UP treat. Actually, Cudighi is not really found outside of Marquette County, that I know of, so it’s not even a UP thing. **
Alas, '97 was the last good winter in Kalamazoo. The last few years have been gray and rainy down here amongst the trolls. Sure, last year was impressive, but it was a bit localized.
Heh. Cudighi, the finest in Italo-Fin cuisine…
