Countdown to Big Tex

So, you know how I get all excited over silly things? And how I love to plan trips, big and not-so-big? Well, the perfect storm is coming next month--a short trip to Dallas and a visit to the State Fair of Texas! We've never been to the fair before, but this being Texas, we know it's going to be BIG. It is famous for--what else?--fried food, and in reading over the list of finalists in the Big Tex Choice Awards I found this little treasure that I felt compelled to share with you:

Deep Fried Butter – 100% pure butter is whipped till light and fluffy, then specially sweetened with a choice of several flavors. The tantalizing mixture is surrounded by a special dough and quick fried.

Doesn't that just set your taste buds on fire? I'm pretty sure you have to show proof of low cholesterol levels before placing your order.

We love the fair. The NM state fair is HUGE also. Don't know what we are going to do in Vegas with no fair this month. It is our favorite thing in Sept. The deep fried butter sounds interesting. We did deep fried twinkies last year don't recommend them.
