The March Customer of the Month is Gayle Mazzarella of Waterloo.
Gayle's family has a long history with Hansen's Dairy Moo Roo at the corner of Kimball and Ridgeway avenues in Waterloo.
"Our nieces were the first employees, and I still remember taking our kids to the grand opening," she said. "Our nieces kept us coming back for more and more!"
The Mazzarella family likes Hansen's products because of the taste and the local aspect.
"We love the whole milk and the chocolate milk, which is not as sweet as others and we like that," Gayle said. "Our favorite is the heavy cream — it's just so good!"
The photo above is of the Mazzarella and Pakala families, taken in front of Moo Roo many years ago. "I like it because this is what we did many summer nights," she said.
Thanks, Gayle! Customers of the Month receive a $5 gift certificate to use at our stores and two free hands-on tour passes to the farm (a $30 value). You could be chosen by filling out an entry form at our stores or through your comments on our Facebook and Twitter pages.

The March Cow of the Month is a pretty cow with a unique facial feature.
Apple Slushie is 3 years old and is pregnant with her second calf. Her first was a heifer we named Apple Snowcone.
As you can see in the photo, Slushie has a crooked nose. When looking at her straight on, her muzzle is twisted. Fortunately, it doesn't cause her any trouble eating or drinking.
Apple Slushie is a good cow — in both production and demeanor — so it's just another reason she'll bring a smile to your face!

Ingredients
*Items that can be purchased at Hansen’s Dairy Stores
|
|
- 1 pkg Beeler’s Breakfast Sausage or Sausage Links*
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt (optional)
- 2 eggs*
- 1-3/4 to 2 cups Hansen’s Dairy Milk*
Toppings
- 2-6 Tablespoons Hansen’s Dairy Butter*
- Great River Maple Syrup*
|
|
- Brown sausage over medium heat in a large skillet or on a large griddle, chopping into fine chunks. If you use the Beeler's Sausage links, cut them into 1/2-inch chunks before browning (they'll cook faster).
- Transfer sausage to a bowl, allowing to cool a few minutes and reserving grease for frying pancakes.
- Mix dry ingredients in 3-quart mixing bowl.
- Create a well and add wet ingredients to well.
- Using a fork, whisk all ingredients together, making a thick batter. A few lumps are OK.
- Mix in browned sausage.
- Heat skillet or griddle to medium low to medium heat.
- Add a tablespoon of grease or butter, melt in skillet/griddle and allow it to coat the surface.
- Pour 1/3 cup batter onto hot skillet/griddle, so it forms a 6-inch circle or so. Repeat until the skillet/griddle is filled.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes or until batter has bubbled and bottom is golden brown.
- Flip and cook for another 3-5 minutes, until both sides are golden brown.
- Repeat until all batter is cooked.
- Top with butter and maple syrup.
