Davene tagged me for this some time ago, and my mental note must've been filed away because I forgot all about it until yesterday. Sorry Davene!
I, for no particular reason, decided to see if I could make mine all fair related. My family probably already knows most of these, so don't get all hoity toity kids, when nothing new to you is mentioned.
1.) I have been to the fair everyday, the whole week of the fair since I was 11.
2.) One of my favorite fair foods, is a Gyro. But they have to be from Lynn's, the others are nowhere near as good.
3.) I won Reserve Grand Champion Market Turkey when I was 17. I think it sold for $250. Maybe more.
4.) I went to State Fair competition my last year as a 4-H'er with my sewing project. I made a revolutionary war era outfit. I didn't place, but I had allot of fun.
5.)I am terrified of the Ferris Wheel. (that whole height thing)
6.) Except for photography and embroidery(and that was because I had put it in the wrong category) I have placed at some point in every category I have entered projects in.
7.)I have slept in the loft of the pig barn at the fair, and it was one of the best nights of sleep I ever got while staying at the fair. (Until I was married, I got a camp site and put up a tent and stayed there the whole week)
And there you have it. Actually I could've kept going, but that would just get dull, so I'll restrain myself.
Consider yourself tagged if you want to join in!

Mrs. Bonnie, thanks for doing this! It was really fun to read. I don't think I've ever known anyone so gung-ho about the fair as you. :)
I love your enthusiasm for the fair -- it's charming. The fair is such fun here, too.
Aww man, now you made me wish it were fair time right now!!
Argh! Even with line-drying them, my maternity jeans did exactly what you warned me about. Cheap (expensive) piece of junk!! :(
