Okay, I missed the major league baseball CASKET last year. Wow. Guess you’ll be needing that after all the fried food (apparently fried butter is the latest thing, although NPR had a piece on this morning about fried beer. Yes, beer.).

Have a great time!!!!! :)

Thanks Lynn. And yeah, the caskets and funereal urns. Tres bizarre.

How does one become an atheist minister? Oh, never mind… I just answered my own question..duh!

I was at the Del Mar fair in June.
Chocolate covered bacon was glorious and the deep fried Klondike Bar was sublime.
Deep fried butter…vomitrocious.

Looking forward to L.A. County Fair.

LOVE the L.A. County Fair! Will most likely go on the last day. I’ll start fasting now.

“Vomitrocious” is now going to be my favorite word.

I’ve been thinking about the Fair and all it offers. Me, I want to see what used to be called “Home Arts”–Sewing & Crafts–has graduated to “Tapestry”..but still has all the wonderful incentives to get out the fabric/beads/etc and put some creativity to work…or to acknowledge that I could never come up with something as beautiful/inventive/amazing as what I’m looking at.

But this year I’m going to do something different—I’m going to be lazy and not drive.
Metro has a train direct from Union Station to Fairplex on the weekends…NO DRIVING!

Of course you’d have to leave early and not be the last person to ride the ferris wheel but you can still arrive early and get a full day in…

Thanks for the tip, Lynda. I didn’t realize Metrolink has train service right the Fairplex on weekends. Good to know.

The brush art was so amazing.
