Deep Fried Resolutions
I thought about making a list of New Years resolutions. But, let's be realistic; I'm not actually going to do anything to make any of them happen.
Instead, I've decided to come up with a list of STATE FAIR 2009 RESOLUTIONS!! Thanks to Sarah who reminded me that there are only 213 glorious days until this year's state fair (Aug 7-23). If you don't know me well, you should know that I LOVE the state fair (and county fairs for that matter).
So, here's a list of deep-fried resolutions for this year's fair(s):
1. Make another guest appearance in the tractor parade (this will also give you internet stalkers a way to see me in person).
2. Get the deep fried cheese from the Wisconsin Cheddar booth but SHARE this time. I have no business finishing off that basket of deep fried lard and dairy all by myself.
3. Catch the donkey/mule shows. These are hilarious. The donkeys do the total opposite of what their masters command them. Sort of like a 3 year old but I won't name names.
4. Get there for breakfast and have a cinnamon roll. Seriously, they have the best cinnamon rolls ever.
5. Make it to the world's largest drive-thru breakfast for their breakfast burritos.
6. Buy dip mixes at the Expo Hall. You know how you taste them all and pretend you're interested so you can sample more. Then, you walk away empty-handed and the poor sales girl just watched you devour 15 different flavors but she didn't make a sale. I keep meaning to buy one.... really.
7. Get Keegan to ride his first ride by himself. We attempted to do this last year at the county fair. But, you know Keegan. He wouldn't sit down (and he's too small for the seatbelts to do any good) so Nathan had to ride it with him. It was quite the sight seeing a 6'1" man squeezed into one of those little kiddie rides.
8. Go more! This year's fair is longer than usual; they've extended the number of days. I plan to take advantage of it.
9. Try duck. Not on a bun though because buns are a waste of fair stomach space.
10. Try archery at the DNR building. I'm never brave enough to do it in front of the line of strangers watching (probably some of you stalkers in there too....). This year I'm going to give it a whirl.
That's it for my 2009 Deep Fried Resolutions. See ya' at the fair!
