Over there are rides and such,
but here are the barns and displays.
4-H sheep, goats, rabbits, and cows
The spinners and weavers.
Photographers.
Prizes for craftwork.
Mini-doughnuts and fresh squeezed lemonade.
Local talent on stage: kids dancing,
dreamers singing.
We stand at our assigned gate, and stamp arms
so folks can get back in later.
You don’t talk to me
I don’t talk to you.
That’s fair.

A fair with no deep-fried Twinkies: Sounds like a plan!
Oooh. Gross. We have the fresh mini-doughnuts and those are my yearly guilty pleasure. This year you could add $2 and have maple and bacon on them, which I’m sure is lovely (I like maple syrup on my pancakes with a side of bacon, after all), but I didn’t spring the twonie to try.
(FYI- this is a twonie aka toonie: http://cdn3.volusion.com/aujxd.ayqsr/v/vspfiles/photos/100468-5.jpg?1417450529 )
