State fair...

The state fair comes to a close tonight and I'm a bit happy for that. The nightly 10pm fireworks haven't gone over too well with Skye. We can't see them from here but we can definitely hear them. Tomorrow I head in to pick up my piece... and my ribbon!

I won two 3rd place ribbons this year!

One was for this pottery piece (thanks to Susanne's hubby for the pic)


Susanne also took home a 2nd for her Iggy hedgehog and a 3rd for her figurine set.. woohoo!


My other 3rd place ribbon was for these chocolate crinkle cookies.


Everything in those cases looks so appetizing but I don't envy the ladies who run those areas... tomorrow they get to unload cases of cakes, cookies, bread and candy that have been sitting in there under the lights for a week and a half.. ick! Its too bad they don't have a climate controlled kind of display set up... that's a lot of food that could go to people who need it.
