Kristin's Visit to Dallas

My friend, Kristin, who works in Rockdale, TX on a deer farm came to Dallas for a Sugarland concert. I was lucky enough to have the day off on Friday so we got to go the the State Fair of Texas!! I took the day off of being a dietetic intern and consumed six times the amount of calories I should be allowed for a day. Please don't tell my colleagues. The fair had lots of cool exhibits to check out such as the Museum of Nature and Science, Farmer Mike the Pumpkin Carver, a stunt dog show, and pig races. I loved The Food and Fiber Building, it was filled with lots of food samples and food facts. There were no fried cheese curds to be found at the State Fair of Texas, but I did try a Corny Dog, a Fried Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Banana Sandwich, a Fried Snickers Bar, Frito Pie, and a Deep Fried Margarita. My favorite was the Fried Snickers Bar-it was so warm and gooey and chocolaty! A few other weird foods at the fair were Fried Beer, Fried Club Salad, Fried Lemonade, Fried Chocolate, Fried Butter, Texas Fried Fritos Pie, and Deep Fried S'mores Pop Tart.

The Sugarland concert was Awesome!!! Randy Montana and Little Big Town opened for them. We had a blast dancing and singing along.
