Sadly, it was a fair and the octopus which put me off chocodiles. ;)Debnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1381393706912671861.post-31463872666910444772014-10-21T15:24:00.795-04:002014-10-21T15:24:00.795-04:00I would try that sandwich.

But, we do have a deep fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich coated with powdered sugar, kind of like a low end Monte Cristo. I am quite impressed that you were able to hold off to only one bite per item.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12600572945417898619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1381393706912671861.post-82138182537012570412014-10-21T12:51:11.970-04:002014-10-21T12:51:11.970-04:00I think that might have been a Smash Bros. shirt, ...I think that might have been a Smash Bros. shirt, but it also might have been Digemon; not sure.<br /><br />Good job getting braver!<br />Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14054476535275659839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1381393706912671861.post-53115861772381676102014-10-21T06:11:46.498-04:002014-10-21T06:11:46.498-04:00Realized this is the second fair post of yours I h...Realized this is the second fair post of yours I have seen, and that I probably wrote a similar comment previously Time flies!<br /><br />Was that a Digemon T-shirt someone was wearing?<br /><br />Posted my thoughts about a comment on a Times op-ed piece that David B. Coe had written that wound up showing on my FB page. Getting braver about expressing my thoughts, I guess. :) <br /><br />Hope you and family have an awesome week!Rosannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036527098846672269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1381393706912671861.post-32941182826317471422014-10-21T01:12:52.372-04:002014-10-21T01:12:52.372-04:00All of those foods sound good.

The one special thing I liked to get was something called an "elephant ear"; fried dough dipped in butter and topped w/ sugar and cinnamon. We only went a few times when the kids were very young, and the four of us would share a meal from a place a church group ran that had fried chicken (2 or 3 pieces, not sure), a ham biscuit, some pulled pork, green beans and maybe fries. It's been so long I can't remember exactly what the meal contained for certain. Glad y'all had fun!Rosannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16036527098846672269noreply@blogger.com
