Drive Thru time! Culver's is like a Midwest In-n-Out. They're everywhere here! Culver's restaurants are also noticeable with their "trademark" blue roofs.
Their drive thru menu below. Their online menu here.
I love that, "Get Culverized"! OMG! They had a small size, a large size and a family size! The small was $3.50. We should have opted for the larger size! These delicious morsels of cheesy goodness were gone in less than 10 minutes! Okay, eight. All right! Five!
Delicious - 2 types of cheese (yellow and white)
Toll roads suck! Because the Midwest has such crappy weather conditions, their roads get messed up more easily. So, in order to have the funds to repair them throughout the year, everyone must pay tolls to drive on the freeways. Thank God we only have earthquakes to worry about! Ha ha. On our drive back to Illinois, we were prepared with loads of change, not like on our way up to the Dells! We were literally scrounging for coins, even asking our daughter if she had any. I felt kind of low asking my 9 year old for money for the damn toll road. She gave us two dimes and one quarter!
On another note...here's my new Converse One Star's from Target. This is the kid's size 6 which is equivalent to a women's 8. The kids' price was $19.99. The women's price was $29.99; same shoe but a different color (gray), so hell yeah, I got the kids' size! You know it's cold when you see me wearing socks. I normally don't even wear shoes that completely cover my feet. My fierce heels won't cut it here.
Here's a Meijer supermarket...
The Arlington Heights water tower...this was kind of different than the other ones we'd seen, which were tall and thin with a bulbous top,
After all that time driving...we were tired...but the day wasn't over yet! We still had dinner to go...One more thing, if you can't get enough of Madison, Wisconsin, check out these past posts by Kirk!

My blog friend, Jeanna (Wisconsin Candy Dish) posted about Culver's cheese curds. I'd never seen them battered and fried like the ones she posted about. I kept thinking, "Man, people like to fry everything in the States!" LOL! :) I mean, fried chocolate bars too! (or as you guys say, "candy bars") :)
Anyway, I'm originally from Quebec and cheese curds are a big thing there because we use them on poutine. It's probably the most unhealthy thing a person can ever eat. Fries with gravy and cheese curds.
What I have discovered since I moved to Ontario is that Ontarians do not make cheese curds like they do in Quebec. So, we say "Ontarians don't know how to make real cheese curds". LOL! I actually pick up cheese curds and take it back to the Island every time I'm in Quebec!
Yum deep fried cheese curds......
hi c - isn't the fried candy bars craze from the uk (specifically scotland?). maybe i'm wrong.
i've seen what poutine looks like and no offense, it looks kind of 'gloppy', but hell, i'm willing to try it!
i've never had cheese curds until culver's. but then, those were fried, not "regular", like the kind that will 'squeak' when you chew on them.
hi kirk - hell yes, those were good! family size next time!
