Everything has been remedied, as far as I can tell, and it's a pleasant stop if you can time it right. (Typically around Labor Day weekend and the following week). We took our girls for the first time and they enjoyed it. They had to get used to the fact there are boatloads of bees, but the bees are in their own, symbiotic world at that point. They have a few fields, all a very short drive from each other. This last trip up we went to their little general store and ended up having an impromptu dinner from a BBQ truck they had up that weekend. Just a magical night that unfolded with these vibrant yellow flowers all around us against a dark gray sky. If you're too early, it doesn't hit the same, and if you're too late, you'll know it.

A beautiful Kansas farm that loaded with "u-pick" strawberries every May and early June…read more Maybe it's the Kansas in my blood, but it's really, really beautiful around this farm (much more so than nearby Missouri farms). Rolling hills, green tree canopies, dirt roads and big sky all while being surprisingly close to Lawrence. This farm is such a fun experience to pick strawberries at, and I'll go step-by-step in just a sec, but I have to shout out that I really appreciate the simplicity of this experience. Some of the u-picks and pumpkin patches go overboard with cheesy rides, hastily-made plywood games, etc. Some may love those, I don't always. I prefer to let the nature and friendly people around provide the fun, and Wohletz shines in that regard. Details on how it works: Step one: We're in a semi-transition from Covid times, so it's appointment based from their FB page and they'll drop them 24 hours in advance, give or take. Step two: Plan for about 45 minutes from the KC area, plug it in your GPS and go -- bring cash! Step three: As you make your way to the picking fields, the staff will guide you to a row that's flush with berries. Many are visible, some hide under big leaves, but they're super easy to pick compared to peas or even blackberries in the summer heat. Step four: Take your hopefully loaded up basket, pay in cash and head out to gorge on strawberries, make a cake or pie and plan to do it again next year. Again, we gravitate to this area a lot anyways, but the rural land around Lawrence really is a special place. I'm just now realizing we drive up this way for strawberries in the spring, trail runs in the summer, pumpkin picking at Schaake's Pumpkin Patch in the fall, and cut a Christmas tree at Strawberry Hill Tree Farm in the winter. Enjoy Wohletz and if you miss their prime picking season, they are also available at the OP Farmers Market on most days!

I swore I'd never step foot in an Aldi. Never. I had standards. Taste. I'm the kind of woman who…read morealphabetizes her spice rack and judges people based on their cheese drawer. So when I heard whispers that Aldi might carry Egg Life wraps? I laughed. Mocked, even. As if the same place that sells lawn chairs next to frozen tilapia could possibly carry the one item I had been chasing like a low-carb lunatic across all of Johnson County. But desperation does wild things to a woman. I had searched high, low and emotionally unstable. Whole Foods? Ghosted me. Sprouts? Played me. Trader Joe's? Cute, but no. My fridge was empty and my hope? Evaporating. So, with a shaky hand and a heart full of doubt, I took a quarter--an actual metal coin like it's 1987--and entered Aldi on my lunch break. And there they were. My precious Egg Life wraps. Just... sitting there, smug in the cooler like, "Took you long enough." I gasped. Time slowed. A child cried somewhere in the background. A manager asked if I was okay. No, sir, I'm not okay--I'm in the middle of a personal redemption arc. Now? I'm in Aldi weekly. Sometimes twice. I walk in like a woman reborn, tossing low-carb finds into my cart like I'm on a game show. Goat cheese? Yes. Off-brand cauliflower snacks that slap harder than name brand? Absolutely. I don't even recognize myself anymore. No, Aldi isn't glamorous. There are no chandeliers. You bag your own groceries like you're training for the Hunger Games. But Aldi has something better: the goods. The secrets. The kind of underdog energy that turns skeptics into believers. So yes. I was wrong. Aldi, you magnificent, chaotic, budget-friendly beast--I bow to you. You have my quarter. You have my wraps. And now... you have my heart.

I do not eat a great deal of meat but when I do... I want quality. I was ill prepared for the wonderful experience that awaited me. The person that helped me, Brian, was terrific. He was super knowledgeable about products, preparation and taste. He even steered me away from higher priced items for lower priced things he thought I would like better. He was thorough and patient with my endless questions. He is very well suited to his job. They have all sorts of items in this quaint shop. They have cheese, jams, jellies, bread, eggs, kitchen equipment. From outside the shop, it does not appear to be very large inside and it isn't necessarily large.. just well packaged. The meat selection is vast... beef, pork, buffalo, chicken, lamb.... in every configuration you can imagine. They have steaks, ground meat, jerky. I learned so much just talking to Brian. There is ample parking and this store is located in a strip mall so there is easy access. Everything is sparkling clean and has a very nice atmosphere about the shop. Tremendously impressed with this gem of a shop.

I hadn't touched a steering wheel since I totaled my old junker 15 years ago. Between that and being in multiple wrecks as a passenger I'd been terrified of driving ever since. Somewhere along the way I started saying "I can't drive" rather than "I don't drive". As it turns out I'm doing at least a little better than I thought and I've made great progress in a short time. I even rented a car and drove all over town for a day- something I'd never done before and never thought I would. I'm learning so much more than I ever learned in Driver's Ed at my poor high school (they graduated students who couldn't read a newspaper) or from my parents. Lawrence at least makes some effort but does not have a true full-fledged public transit system. (There's no service at all on Sundays just for example.) It's nothing like Chicago or even Milwaukee. If you've never been without a car for years on end anywhere in (most of) the Midwest then I probably can't explain what it's really like. It's like some kind of second or third class citizenship. You have to have a car or at least be able to drive here. There's just no way around it. Now I can say instead just that "I don't have a car", which is certainly a step up, and I'm working on that. I'll have a down payment February if not sooner. It's a big step forward and I could not have done it without excellent, professional, patient, and highly effective instruction.
