Top 10 Favorite County Fair Foods

I went over to EightyMPHmom to see what the Monday Mingle was today and one of the questions was what is your favorite food to eat at the country fair. Well that got me thinking about how much I love everything at the County Fair. So I wanted to write down my top ten favorite county fair foods to eat.

Monday Mingle I’m still Sick

I haven’t done a true Monday Mingle in a few weeks. Last week I couldn’t hear at all and this week, I still have major ringing in my ears but the doctor promised that chewing gum will help, oh and he’ll drain my ears before I have to fly later in June. I haven’t had a trip invitation for a few months and now I have three different states to travel to in June and only one week. I’m pretty excited, and anxious to get well.

Current questions {week of 5/23/11}:

1.  What were your childhood pets and their names?

2.  Favorite cartoon or comic as a kid?

3.  What is the weirdest thing you’ve ever eaten?

I had a few cats growing up and one was hit by a car and my grandmother paid for a cast to save it’s life. Her name was rainbow, I had a cat named Aransas and it had a crooked tail and we had a family dog named Pixie.

My all time favorite cartoon was Rainbow Bright. I also loved Wonder Woman and watched it every Saturday night with my dad.

My mom says I used to eat the wood right off the coffee table when I was a toddler. Other than that, Sushi is as weird as I go and I’m not big on Sushi.

 

That’s me in a nutshell.

What Would You Do Without The Internet or TV? Vlog

Welcome to Monday Mingle!

mondaymingleThis week’s questions:

Current questions {week of 3/21/11}:

1. What would you do for fun if you had to give up TV and internet?
2. What is your favorite breed of dog?

3. What is under your bed right now?

My answers:

If I had to give up internet and TV then I would go back to painting. I used to paint a lot before I had kids. I have tons of artwork under my bed, which happens to be question number thee. Of course if you really wanted to get down to what’s under my bed, we also have cracker packages, my iPad is under my bed along with a package of chocolate that I’ve been slowly working on since Valentine’s Day. I think in the video I said Mother’s Day but that’s not until May and rest assured the package of chocolate is not THAT old.

My favorite breed of dog is yes, chocolate labs, my dream dog that we recently decided we were not able to keep. Having a dog, a blog, traveling and two kids makes taking care of a puppy exhausting. So she’s living with a new family now that can care for her better than I could.

I look forward to reading everyone else’s answers this week.

1) I think I’ll be running around like a mad mom in a minivan

2) I love cheese burgers, cheddar everything except onions, I don’t like American cheese, and I like mushroom and swiss too.

3) Gas prices are a a pain in the but. They are about 3.56 or at least they were on Monday, they could be higher now. Supposedly they are supposed to level out soon. I’m really hoping so because my budget can’t afford much more.
