I’m sitting here with Bentley…(and Ina). And, guess what I just ate for lunch? A PASTY!! That’s right. I’ve officially gone through initiation to be a “yooper”… (or a “yoopie” as Jen likes to call it). It was very good. A church member, Karen, brought me one yesterday. Now I see why everyone is obsessed with them up here! They’re SO GOOD! I want to learn how to make them. One of our friends from church said she would teach me. Anyhow, if any of you guys come up, be sure to eat one!
Here’s a link because I know all of you want to learn more about the pasty, the official food of the U.P.

And FINALLY, a quote about the pasty:
Gross. That does not look like a burrito to me. But I’ll take your word for it. But I suppose that’s because I just came back from eating some JUMMY taco bell. That’s right. The burrito of the Rest of the World. =)fyi: I like Yoopie better. 😉 HOpe you’re well..
Pasties are good. My first pasty was a Cornish pasty…in England’s Cornwall region. Yum! I’m sort of had a “yoopie” pasty, but it was in Mackinac City…close, but not quite. 🙂
mmm i’m hungry. what’s in it? btw, if u didn’t get my text msg Judy, can you send me your address?
