After quite the indecisive parking disaster, we finally made it in and headed straight for the (ok, for the bathroom first!, then for the) Australian Battered Potatoes with cheese and ranch!
If you've never had these before, you must make them a fair staple! They are amazing!
The Cheesy Bacon Bombs, caught my eye next, and were the greatest decision ever! Basically croissant biscuit balls stuffed with cheese and bacon. Ain't nothin' wrong with that!! They were, like, actually legit good. Like, appetizer at a party good. I might have to make them someday! I actually Googled them, and apparently they are a real thing. Outside of the fair world.
We found the Deep Fried Doritos I wanted to try this year, but, honestly, they looked kind of lame. They looked just like a plain Dorito chip. Barely any batter or anything...looked dry and boring. So we passed.
Then, we walked around a bit through all the infomercial booths to get our appetite back, after stuffing our faces with "dinner".
We always have to get our photo booth on!
This yellow background was everything this year! Changin' it up from our usual black and white photos.
We decided on a little roller coaster in place of our usual Tilt-a-Whirl ride, because, let's be serious, we are getting old, and there is always a huge risk of an instant migraine and/or nausea from fair rides these days. Boo.
Games were next, which are all too expensive lately! But worth it! So worth it.
Even for these sad, sad, tiny prizes. Didn't the boobie prizes used to be a little better?!
Sigh. Womp Womp...
Next up was dessert!!
Obviously, I couldn't decide between a few last fried options, so we got two to share!
We chose the deep fried cheesecake, and deep fried slice of red velvet cake!
OMG you guys. a whole, huge slice of cake. With frosting and all. Straight up battered and fried. It was amaaaazing!!! So was the cheesecake, as it got all melty and delish. Oh man. These were a great decision. No matter how full we may have been.
A quick stop to see the leetle goats, and other animals, and we were on our way!
They actually had the Budweiser Clydesdale horses there, and even the Dalmatian dog from the commercial! Gah! So cute! Except it's always sad how small the cages are :( Ugh.
They also had oxen and camels which was really cool. And those dang Alpacas are so cute!
Ah! I love this tradition. I look forward to the fair every year! So much fun!
Love you, Seester!!!
Did you get to go to the fair this year?
