This is just random stuff from life that most of the time includes monkey photos or monkey stuff. Why PoMonkey? I like monkeys! And some friends were on vacation and sent us a postcard. They said that they had found the perfect place for us to live...Pomonkey! I agreed. Indeed, it would be fun to live in a place called Pomonkey. And a blog name was born.

WHAT A MARVEL!
I know that all of you have been waiting on pins and needles to know someone who has actually seen what is possibly the World's Largest Cheeto. Well, look no further...I'm your gal! Mr. PoMonkey and I headed west for the Easter weekend to the vast farmland of Iowa to visit some great friends from Trinity (actually they are the first friends we made when we got to Chicago). I must say that we thoroughly enjoyed the scenery of rolling hills (as we passed the Mighty Mississippi) and the beautiful open spaces dotted with hundreds of silos. We made our way to the town of Algona, population 6,000.
Saturday evening we headed to Sister Sarah's Restaurant to view the Cheeto. As you can see, it was encased for protection and laying eloquently on a much deserving pedestal of purple velvet. Sadly most of the people sitting at surrounding tables seemed to be ignoring that they were in the presence of such wonder!
(I apologize for the glare in the photo.)

I can never go and see the giant Cheeto as I would not be able to help myself and I would eat it. I love Cheetos!!! Actually I love Cheetos cousin, Cheese Puffs.
