Giddy up, it's that time again.
The Indiana State Fair is underway and we are so excited. Remember how much I love traditions? Well our fair experience is definitely a tradition because we do that same things every year and I love it.
Last year we went four times and gave ourselves titles of "Fair Groupies." We go often because we only go on our favorite discount days, the Indy Star free days and $2 Tuesdays.
Buy a couple newspapers today to get free admission coupons to use either this Wednesday or Thursday. Or print out the Turkey Hill coupons and get in this Tuesday and next Tuesday for just $2 AND buy $2 portions from different food vendors throughout the fair.
This year, we'll head back to Madeline's favorite section: Little Hands on the Farm in Riley's Fun Park.
I love it too because it's totally free and every year kids walk away with a free hat and snack.
At the farm, kids can learn how food is planted, harvested and delivered to grocery stores to end up at their kitchen tables.
Speaking of healthy, fresh food (ha!), our fair food tradition always includes some combination of the following:
- grilled cheese sandwiches at the Dairy Bar
- grilled corn from the Lions Club
- Bloomin' Onions
- funnel cakes
- Lemon Shake-Ups
However, I can't gather much dignity because my food list definitely means a slight waddle by the end of the night. And since I'm pregnant, I'm sure the waddle will have extra sway. It won't be pretty but it does mean the fair was a lot of fun. Yum, yum.
