The Holman Kornfest

"Where," Dwight asked, "is the Holman Kornfest?"

"Funny, you should ask," Gretchen said, as she carefully arranged the assortment of leftovers for the upcoming banquet.

"Does it have anything to do with the Beer, Wine or Cheese Festival? Or Dairy Days?  Yes, that's it, Dairy Days!   I remember having creamed corn when I was a kid," Dwight recollected.

"Oh!" Gretchen smiled, her lips forming an upturned crescent moon, her eyes slowly closing as she luxuriated in her recollection of  the simple pleasure of the delicious burst of freshly shucked  corn and rich, warm, sweet cream butter. "The HOLMAN KORNFest!  It's all coming back! And who could forget  Weinerfest and Cranberry Fest and, OMG, the Sparta Butterfest?" she exclaimed.  "What I wouldn't give to be back  in LaCrosse, Wisconsin."

Well, to tell  the truth, I don't know if Dwight or Gretchen will make it back, but our Leftovers are going to take their rightful place in the land of Kornfest, Weinerfest, Cranberry Fest, Butterfest and Cheese, Beer and Wine Fest  at the University of Wisconsin -  La Crosse. In fact, we'll be packing  up  this magnificent moveable feast in the next few days to send them on their way.

So, if you've been dreaming of Leftovers from days past, then head to the University of Wisconsin, La Crosse for Leftover Fest!

We're Leftovers II and we're on our way to LaCrosse Wisconsin!
