Today I went to the WORT FriendRaiser Potluck in Sauk City. Hosted by the Free Congregation of Sauk City. The event was a huge success, thanks to all of the attending community members, the CAB members (I swear I am not tooting my own horn here), and the members of the WORT programming.
The middle-eastern themed food spread included tabouli, hummus, spinach phyllo dough pastries, samosas, lentil soup, chili, cranberry bread, and much much more. Another highlight of the event was Madison Home Brewers sampling some delicious home-made beer.
The drive to Sauk City was absolutely gorgeous, really, one could not hope for a better way for a community gathering. It was brisk but sunny, and it reminded me (as I forget sometimes, especially in the winter) just how beautiful Wisconsin is. And it got me thinking, as I assessed how many times and in how many different ways I have criss-crossed my way across Wisconsin terrain -- I never would have thought years ago that I would be proud to think of myself as a Wisconsinite. It's an odd feeling. I wondered what this place looked like 500 years ago, 1000 years ago... Also, I drive too much.
