When: last Sunday // Weather: 40s and cloudy // Real life: mac ‘n’ cheese festival
I tried to keep an open mind for year 2 of Indy’s mac ‘n’ cheese fest. Year 1 was sort of underwhelming, but the first year of anything is underwhelming. I mean, when I look back on 1985, I don’t think to myself, “damn, I really hit my stride as a newborn.” But I was underwhelmed again. There were long lines, still no organization, not a lot of vegetarian options, and leaky spots in the ceiling. They also tried to hand out forks via the “take one, pass it on” method. This time of year? No thanks, no flu fork for me.
Maybe I just don’t like food fests. I love eating, but not a lot at once, and I like to enjoy some ambiance, you know? And if you think I’m going to stand in a line to get a single bite of food like it’s 1930, you’re wrong. So instead, we’re going to start our own mac ‘n’ cheese fest: invitation only, at our house, with wine pairings. 😉
