We are back at it! Dane County Farmer's Market opened today to a beautiful day and the LunchBox back at it on the square! Find us every market at the top of State St. on Mifflin in front of the Vetran's Museum.
Congratulations Matt!
My husband, Matt, has served the last seven years of his decade of employment at the University of Wisconsin as the Technical Director for the Student FM Radio Station, WSUM. He has taken a new position and is leaving WSUM this week. I just want to put forth how proud I am of Matt and wish him the best of luck with the new gig.
2nd year, Top Ranked Cart in Madison
Ingrid's LunchBox has once again placed first in the annual City of Madison street food vendor review for the second year in a row. These rankings help us earn our vending spots for the following year meaning that I will get to keep the same Farmer's Market spot for next season. Thank you so much, Madison. You all rock!

It's Festival Day in San Francisco
I would like to wish Ingrid and Emily the best of all at today's San Francisco Street Food Festival. It's expected to be a great turnout!
San Francisco Bound
It is on! Emily and I are off to San Francisco for six days to participate in the San Francisco Street Food Festival! On August 20th, we will not be at Farmer's Market because we will be serving up apple crisp crepes in the Mission District in San Francisco. Then I will also be cooking breakfast for the conference the next day as well which is pretty awesome! Emily and I also get to attend the conference as well.
San Francisco Street Food Festival, August 2011
How cool is this? I have just been contacted about participating in the 2011 San Francisco Street Food Festival! I don't have the specifics beyond what can be read off of their site,but apparently I served one of the organizers last year at Farmer's Market and now they want to fly me to San Francisco to serve for two days at their annual Street Food Festival. It sounds like it will come down to serving small portions of two items, preferably from the Farmer's Market menu.
I'm still thinking about what to serve, but Matt suggests that a mini Wisconsin fried egg sandwich with horseradish hollendaize and fresh spincach on a cheddar and chive baking powder biscut for one item. The other I am thinking should represent the crepe, so I was thinking apple crisp crepe with real whipped cream and strusel. Now I just need to figure out how to get Vernon's apples out to the west coast.
Of course you get to come up to the back door!
I recieved a surprise visit from Senator Russ Feingold today at Farmer's Market. I am pleased he took the time to stop by during his insanely busy campaign this fall, even if he didn't have the time for an oatmeal. Senator, I am definitely voting for you! ]Thanks Justin for the pictures, and Marie for dragging the senator over to meet me...
