On, Wisconsin!

Sigma, University of Wisconsin

I was very excited to return to Wisconsin in the warm weather and get the opportunity to see all the wonderful things about Madison in the beautiful weather this time! My favorite please, by far, was the terrace! It is the patio behind the student union that looks out onto the lake and it is a very popular spot for students and townies alike. Brittney, Wisconsin's advisor, took me out to the terrace for lunch on one of the most beautiful days. The terrace was filled with people hanging out, drinking and enjoying the weather. There was also no shortage of students sun bathing on the dock and paddle boarding in the lake!

The other amazing part about being out on the terrace was that this is where I tried cheese curds for the first time! Even though I was told these weren't the best ones, I enjoyed this Wisconsin speciality to no end. Cheese curds are basically little chunks of deep fried cheese and they are amazing. They also usually come with some sort of cheesy or mustardy dipping sauce, so how could that be bad.

The most fun I had during my visit was definitely during the practices at the phi house. Wisconsin has some really fun songs and their entrances and exits for formal recruitment are so energetic! My favorite song they did was written to Spice Up Your Life and it was so catchy; a great recruitment song!

My last night was a Friday and on Fridays in Madison every restaurant does a fish fry. So that night I went to Quivey's Grove Stable Grill for the all you can eat fried fish. I obviously also got the cheese curds and it was all so amazing. It's a good thing I don't live in Wisconsin because I would try to eat this stuff for every meal!
