Say Cheese!

So on Thursday I was driving and happened to hear on the radio that there would be a statue of Abe Lincoln carved from cheddar cheese on display for three hours the next day on Constitution avenue in D.C. Obviously I took a mental note to go see it.

On Friday my mom, Emily, me, and my friend Colleen headed out to D.C. for the sole purpose of seeing the cheese statue of Abraham Lincoln. As we exited 66 onto Constitution there was the bright orange life size rendition of Abe himself. We parked and walked over to see it and were greeted by enthusiastic employees of Cheez-it who gave us each several bags of cheez-its to take with us. I happen to love cheez-its, so this was wonderful.

We each took a turn getting our picture taken with Abe. As I stood next to him, I definitely noticed a distinct cheesy smell. We were glad it wasn't super hot that day.

Afterward we of course hit up Tangy Sweet for some delicious frozen yogurt.


Not everyday do you get to see a life size cheese statue AND eat pomegranate frozen yogurt. It was a very good day.
