    Every casserole is a hot dish, but not every hot dish is a casserole, technically. It's all about what'cha cook it in.
    Also loot-eh-fisk isn't fun. Especially when your Norwegian grandmas never quite rinsed it enough. However, lefse, krumkakke, sanbakkels, and risgrøt are magnificent holiday staples 'round here. Even though I personally like sanbakkels better in the spring and summer when I can have 'em with berries.
    Random fun WI and MN television/media interaction - because where I live is so close to MN, because of how television stations worked for so long, if the Packers and Vikings both played at the same time, folks without cable access up here wouldn't be able to watch the Packers play, because only the Vikings games would be broadcast. I'm sure that's pretty common, just something I found funny. I personally do not care about football.

      *Shudder* I still remember the half-inch size chunks of still-raw onion in the meatballs my grandma used to make.
