Last weekend was a lot of fun while having family in town visiting from Chicago. It has kind of been a tradition for them to come to MN at the end of the summer and for us all to go out to the State Fair, so that's what we did last Friday night. I still had my dad's camera so I was able to take some photos.
My favorite thing about the Fair is the Food! Isn't it for everyone!?? LOL. IMO (in my opinion) it is always best to share food at the Fair, that way you can try small bites of a lot of different things. This time at the Fair I sampled bites of:
- Fried Ravioli
- Cheese Curds
- Fried Green Tomatoes & Corn Fritters with honey butter
- Bacon-wrapped turkey tenderloin
- Italian Gelato
- Scotch Egg
- Roasted Corn
- London Broil
- Corn Dog
- Sweet Martha's Cookies
We walked around a lot and I took some random photos here and there
Check out the size of this Oinker.....
It was a lot of fun and I'm glad most of the family could make it up this year! (D & K, wish you could've come too!)
great pics! looks like a lot of fun was had!

Oh, I love the fair and the food. I can't say that I have ever had a cheese curd. Are they deep fried curd?

Deep Fried and battered. They are awesome!
