Day 3 in Ponderings of the Universe

This must have been Sunday.

Started the day off with another grilled peach, this time the herbed goat cheese drizzled with honey variety. SO GOOD! Would definitely recommend! Also got a kombucha, which they had on tap. I’ve never particularly enjoyed kombucha as the types I’ve tried have been too vinegary/fermentedy, but I quiet enjoyed it! I think it was coconut lime flavored.

NEW FAIR FOOD #13 and #14: The sweet corn BLT from the Farmer’s Union was hands down the most delicious thing I ate at the fair this year. It was absolutely perfect and I want one every day forever. Their strawberry lemonade was also delicious and tart. Both recommended most highly.

Some cute fair art. I don’t know who the critter on the end is but I’m guessing its something MN related…

NEW FAIR FOOD #15: Wood-Grilled Elote from Tejas Express. It was way too goopy. I’ve never had Elote before, though, so maybe that’s normal? It would have been so much better with a third of the chile mayo/Cotija mixture. Would not recommend.

NEW FAIR FOOD #16: Messy Giuseppe from Mancini’s al Fresco. This was ground beef and Italian pork sausage in marinara with Parmesan cheese on top and served on Italian bread. It wasn’t good as a sandwich. I think it would have been much better on some pasta to spread the meatiness/saltiness and then with some mozzarella and/or provolone melted on top. Not a bad concept or taste, just poor execution.

Got another frozen mocha thingy. It was hot out and they are quite refeshing.

Mum got a popcorn (the first of many).

And we watched a draft horse cart show. So pretty!

Horsies!

Then finished the day off with more Nordic waffles. Got the Vegetarian Viking, which had in it a black bean veggie burger, cheddar, mixed greens and a chipotle sauce. It was probably my favorite of the savory ones I tried. We also had a Berries and Cream which had raspberry-strawberry jam and vanilla whipped cream. Both very tasty.
