cabenson | Sunday Morning Musings

We went to the fair Friday and walked FOREVER!! I took my required rest breaks and luckily, we found a couple of air-conditioned buildings to relax in. This as the first annual trip to the fair that did not end with me getting a heat/humidity induced migraine.

We checked out the antiques and the commercial buildings as well as the food displays. The daughter of some friends won 2nd prize with her Savory Taco Cheesecake. The Ugly Cakes were, well, ugly. We ate corndogs, cheese on a stick, Steak on a Stick, ice cream, lemon shake-up, roast beef sammich and corn bread. I was in line to get an elephant ear but it was taking too long. We grabbed about a pound of fun candy (including wax bottle for Mrs. CB-why yes, we are in fact 10 years old)and a slice of fudge for each of us. We were there four hours and I think we are going back...with the camera. I decided that I need to do a "Boobs of the State Fair" photo show because there were some seriously fine racks )as well as seriously "I don't need to see that" racks). Yes, I am a pig. I also want to get a deep-fried Twinkie or something on a stick. Okay! I am a gluttonous pig.

Last night we finally watched The Aviator. WOW! We loved it. In fact, we are off to do some walking at the mall and I am hoping to pick up a good biography on Howard Hughes. Leonardo DiCaprio has regained me as a fan...what a cute little ass he has. I was not impressed with Cate Blanchett at Katherine Hepburn, but Kate Beckinsale's Ava Gardner can warm my bed up anytime! And learning the history of The Outlaw? Mmmm...mammaries.

Anyway, off to walk in the air-conditioned and overly-priced Polaris Mall. There is a new movie theater up there with reclining seats so we may take in a pic as well.
