The Fair!

The NC State Fair (as stated earlier in one of my posts) is one of my favorite events. I love it! This year the fair was not nearly as crowded as years past - but that was fine by me - I could get to the food stands easier! The roomie and I bundled up and headed out to see what fantastic mullets and redneck individuals we could find.

To begin the evening we visited John the Greek's stand where we split a gyro. Umm - delicious! It was so good...as you can see -

Oh yummy....

However you need to have something sweet to follow that delicious dinner with -

DEEP FRIED PECAN PIE! Let me tell yall this is one of the best things I have ever eaten. Im a big fan of the deep fried snickers but this was the new thing to try at the Fair this year so of course I had to try it. Soooo goood.

After finishing that off we decided to walk around the fair and check out all the animals. Another one of my favorite things to do. We also saw the biggest pumpkin and watermelon and sweet taters. Dragging the roomie around to all the vendors and animals it was time to suck it up and ride some rides. I believe they were fun however the whole time I was praying out loud and/or screaming with my eyes shut.

The view from our cage - or the rides name The Zipper.

The roomie in the cage - she was having a delightful time while I was not.

Once the roomie had her fill of rides we decided to eat some more (of course!) French fries from Al's French Fry Stand and Ham Biscuits from the Church were definitely in order. So yummy. After feeling like complete heifers we called it night but not before we watch the fireworks.
