NC State Fair

Every year, we tell ourselves that we aren't headed to the NC State Fair especially after feeling sick from all the fried food.  However, every fall we are tempted by the building excitement of the NC State Fair all over again.

This year's special fried food was Texas Fried Frito Pie, which the Hubs just had to try. For those of you who aren't familiar with Frito Pie, it consists of Texas chili with shredded cheese and Frito chips. In this case, imagine all of those items fried into a little nugget with sour cream and salsa as condiments. 

We also had the Bloomin' Onion, which is just too big for 2.

And of course there is the overpriced soda that we all lined up to purchase. This year we brought our Pappy's Mug so each refill was only $2. 

Never surprising, but always odd: Free Child ID Tags.

I'm not sure if we'll be heading out there again next year... (but my guess is yes).
