My Fourth Annual State Fair Post

The one good thing that came out of Mrs. CB's non-trip to DC was that we were once again able to take in the Ohio State Fair. The weather was nice, a little warm, but we had a great time and ate tons of crap. And Mrs. CB got hit on by a 12 year old farm boy.

And, on the heels of last year's critically acclaimed, yet Non- Pulitzer Prize Winning photo essay on Boobies of the Ohio State Fair, I decide to once again focus on something that makes my mouth feel good, so I present, with a "photo-heavy warning*:




They had grilled steak sammiches...


Steak and Cheese on a stick...


corn dogs,


hot dogs,


full racks :)


Italian,


great Amish food from a place called "Der Dutchman", but I always pronounce it "Der Dutchwhore"...I don't know why no offense to my dutch whore friends


Deep fried Oreos,


that tasted scrumptious!!!


deep fried pickles


For when a handful of fair fries isn't enough,


deep fried everything


deep fried s'morey goodness


and even deep fried Coke?!


Hot Beef Sundae was quite the hit,


as was the roasted corn and


turkey legs


make your own slushies are always fun


and so is Strawberry shortcake on a stick,


and cheesecake on a stick,


maybe even an egg on a stick, but never, EVER


an old man on a stick.


and to finish, a pissed off looking cardinal.

but where are....

Now that is just a Deep Fried Win right there. Hands down. Oreos, twinkies, strawberry shortcake... damn people, we're covering all the major food groups. Ohio knows how to do it right.

Although I must admit, I am confused on the deep fried Coke. But, to each his own.

*chuckles* Mmm, egg on a stick...

Great sequel to Las Boobies de 2006 :)

I have not been able to fix the garage door opener so tomorrow after work a specialist is stopping by... the horrors of being a homeowner!

You know it darlin'. We had the gutter people out to replace the gutters and downspouts yesterday, and when they removed the downspouts, the drains to the streets were full of roots.

Had to call a rooter to clean them out--another $200 in addition to the gutters.

OMG, I need to do this at the Minnesota state fair at the end of the month. I just had dinner, still this post made me hungry!

Just looking at these photos, I've gained 10 pounds. URP!

That was great!

[livejournal.com profile] coldbeer has reminded me many times that the culture and ancestry we call the "Pennsylvania Dutch" are actually German, not her Dutch people at all.

Though now that I think about it I don't see why this spares her from being a whore.

i challenge you to put together a new vid and you have to title it:

"Deep Fried"

I'd be interested to see what you come up with
