How about: “If Midnight Mass starts at 9 PM, you know you’re in Wisconsin.”
That was the hardest thing I had to get used to when I moved here. Every other place I’d ever lived — Midnight meant 12:00 AM
“You buy Christmas presents at Farm & Fleet.”
There are other stores? What the heck for? LOL!
Mr. Wonderful has been helping me remodel my kitchen. He went to F & F for something and came back with a new set of Chicago Cutlery kitchen knives for me. He said they were, ‘practical and pretty’ just like me. Awww!
Now WHAT is not to love about that OR gifts from Farm & Fleet? :)
(Now, if he’d only get me that milk cow I keep asking for...my life would be PERFECT!)
