So we went to the State Fair and it was exactly how I
thought it would be. There are more types of food than you would think possible
– including some which to us were incomprehensible.
One of these was funnel cakes - which of course we had to
try. It is had to describe so I have included photo. It tastes a lot like a
donut.
I also tried the corn dog which was much to corny for my
liking and I had a hot dog which was up to the usual high standard of dogs in
America. There was simply too much to try – and some of them – like the turkey
legs – were impossible to contemplate. These must come from turkeys that are
four feet tall.
We saw dogs jumping hurdles – this is apparently called
‘agility’. This is not something Georgia could do. She can surely jump but is
not good at following directions.
We saw a lot of very large horses and very many rabbits.
There was a whole pavilion of rabbits. Some of them had won prizes for
something – I just cannot imagine what. I man let us pet one and it was very
soft – perhaps it got a prize for this.
Cate offered to let me watch the tractor pulling but I had
had enough excitement for one day.
I need a giant Amish donut in my life
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of winning a prize for being the softest. That is comforting, especially they way my week has gone.
ReplyDeletelenny: Everyone does.
