The Great Minnesota Get Together

Here in Minnesota, the Minnesota State Fair is a pretty huge deal. The past few years, Derick and I have been attending the fair in search of yummy fair food, and to take in the sights and some of the shows that the fair has to offer.

This year, as a part of work, Gander Mountain was sponsoring an area of the Fair again this year. As employees, we could sign up for shifts to work the Gander area! my immediate team of three all signed up to work the Fair together this week and it was a lot of fun.

After my four-hour shift at the booth, a friend from college stopped by the booth and wanted to walk the fair with me, eat and catch up! It has been a few years since we have seen each other and it was a blast! My feet sure were tired by the end of the day, but it was a day well-spent!

On the "food consumed list," I had:

• a Pronto-Pup (like a corndog, but way, way better)
  
• Fudge Puppy (basically a waffle covered with chocolate, whipped cream and sprinkles.mmm)
  
• Cheese Curds
  
• and brought Kettle Corn home for Derick and I to share
  

What a great shot to end on the other night!
