Our state fair is a great state fair...

don't miss it, don't even be late.

Tonight tonight tonight. Things I'm looking forward to:

- chicken fried bacon
- fried pickles
- fried grilled cheese sandwhich
- the pirate ship
- funnel cake
- the ferris wheel at night
- fried chocolate truffles
- spending $50 to win a big stuffed animal worth only $2

I have fasted all day in order to be able to eat my bodyweight in fried batter.
I have printed out the fair food locator
I have printed out a fairgrounds map

From my calculations, I will burn off a chocolate truffle in my quest to get a grilled cheese sandwhich. Those are all the way over by the creative arts pavillion. I guess I could get a grilled cheese and then check out some of the entries into the quilt competition.

Next year I think I'm going to enter my grandma's mincemeat into the fair. Mom finally handed down the recipe. It's full of burbon and suet. I'm thinking it will fit in just fine at the fair.
