The Fair, The Fair, the Unforgetable Fair















































































I know it has been a while for me posting but I have been under the weather and I have been busy trying to get back into my kitchen, that post coming next!




A few weeks ago the NC State Fair was in town and Brian decided to help a co-worker out by working a booth out there this year. I had not planned on taking Landon to the fair this year with everything that has been going on but at last minute Brian was asked to work a Saturday afternoon at the fair and I decided to take Landon for the few hours Brian would be working. Since Maw Maw and Poppa were out of town to invite them to join us it was just Landon, Gamma, and myself.
While Brian was working we walked around the fairgrounds for Landon to see and feed the animals and meet some Characters from UNC-TV Shows like Curious George. He even got to see the cows getting milked which he loved! Landon seemed to have a good time but I didn't do a good Job taking pictures. I only got a few with the Characters. Landon wanted to meet Curious George but when we got there he was very shy, so I jumped in the picture holding Landon to get him with George. We also saw this robot, probably 7 1/2 to 8 feet tall and Landon was very scared of him, he was screaming!
I think Landon liked the "elephant ear" the best of all. I got one with 1/2 powdered sugar and 1/2 cinnamon sugar and I think Landon probably ate 1/2 of the fried dough.
What is everyone elses favorite thing to eat when they go to the fair?

Sure hate we missed out on the "fun" of going to the fair. Glad Landon got to go and certainly seemed to enjoy it.
