Today I am not posting a recipe!  I want to share my experience at the State Fair of Virginia. 

We were able to get to the fair before the crowds got there!

 
I had such a good time!  I am not  a ride person, they make me ill.  I do enjoy watching others while they partake!

 
One of my favorite things about the fair is the animals!
 

Love these little pigs!
 
This little guy was very curious and got right up to the camera
 
The goats are so cute!

At one time we owned 8 chickens.  I miss them so much!

Of course, one of the best things about a fair is the food.  I ate a gyro sandwich and for desert, I had fried Reese Peanut Butter Cups and Fried Oreo Cookies!  Actually, I brought the Fried Oreo Cookies home.  They are very rich and you can’t eat to much of this type of food!

Fried Oreos!

Fried Reese Peanut Butter Cups!
 I have been blogging for a few years on another site, and it is there, that I met my friend Ann.  She and I were finally able to meet up and speak with each other face to face!  I loved that.  Sorry about the photo – I am still figuring my camera out!

My friend Ann and I!
 
We spent the day looking at quilts and other handcrafts, eating food that would normally not be a part of our diet, and enjoying the animals.  It was a good day!  Hope you had a wonderful day also!  Thanks for stopping by.

    Im not a ride person either . Just watching other people go on them makes me feel sick.

    On the other hand those deep fried Oreos look fabulous.

    Its always a thrill to meet a bloggy friend. Great picture of the both of you!

    Well, I look drunk! And that didn’t come until later around the campfire… (teehee). It was FANTASTIC meeting you as well. I didn’t try the fried oreo, but did try a bite of a fried reeses cup and part of a fried ho-ho. And had a pork parfait for lunch. Fair food at it’s finest…
