I think I went to the OC Fair maybe once? in high school? This was when I learned what the word “boonies” meant. LOL.
Aidan thought this was a GREAT idea
Anyways, Mike and I took the kids to the fair with Bao and Shanielle on Sunday. We had fun. We went around 4pm so it wasn’t too hot for the kids. I think the kids are still too young to enjoy the fair, but things will definitely be different next year.
Because it’s the first question I get when I tell people I went to the fair, here is a list of things we ate and how we felt about them:
Food
1. Foot-long corn dog: Mike was unsatisfied because he kept walking by people whose corn dogs were bigger than his.
2. Deep-fried White Castle burger: Yuck!
3. Marshmallow Yammies: Sweet potato fries with marshmallow sauce. Yum! (Only thing better would have been the yammie funnel cake that Shanielle and I will be selling next year…look for our booth!)
4. Funnel cake: Really can’t go wrong here.
5. Brisket sandwich from Chuck Wagon: Yuck. I had better.
6. Grilled corn: Best thing I ate at the fair. Bao challenged me to live off it since I said I could. LOL.
Highlights:
Just one highlight because it’s so good it trumps the rest:
1. Shanielle getting her head stuck in the photo frame while kids were waiting to take a picture with it.
Tips for next year:
1. Be Asian. Bring your own water because drinks are a rip!
2. Get the turkey leg. This is just a memo for Mike. LOL.
3. Go in the evening. Less crowded and way cooler.
