Our State Fair is a great state fair...

Well, it's that time of year again,folks!  When the Dallas Morning News announces the Fried Food Winner - the 2012 Big Tex Choice Awards!  There were two - one for taste and one for creativity.  The most creative winner was Fried Bacon Cinnamon Rolls!  On a stick of course.  And the winner for tastiest went to Fried Jambalaya.  I will probably pass on that one but I might just try the bacon cinnamon rolls.  And I definitely want to try the Fried Pork Wings.  Yes - you read that correctly.  These must be those flying pigs we've heard about...  Be sure and check out the slide show on the link so you can peek at all eight of the finalists.  
The fair opens September 28th and closes October 21st.  Big Tex is 60 this year so you know it's just going to be one big party.  The Killdares are back.  And the Bird Show.  So "don't miss it - don't even be late!"

  2. Bluebonnet at the State Fair of Texas by Mary Brooke Casad; illustrated by Pat Binder - it's about an armadillo named Bluebonnet that ends up at the fair with a rabbit named Joe Bob.
