Three days into the fair, one to go. The girls have won their usual assortment of ribbons, the heat and humidity have been the same as usual too. I have had fun running around with Dell's camera (only for a brief time!). It's so fast that you really feel like a photographer. I'll be interested to see if she likes any of the photos. I spent all day Thursday and Friday at the fairgrounds, leaving at 7 am and returning home at 10 pm ish, and today I just couldn't do a whole day. So Larry spent his day there and I came home at 2. I spent a couple hours helping shuck corn for the blue ribbon dinner, so I ended up with all th bits and pieces of corn that no one wanted. Esther and I blanched and froze up a lot of packages for the next low country boil.
(I don't have pictures up yet, since they are on Dells camera, but I really liked the Low Country Boil that Laura introduced us to. It's a Georgia/South Carolina tradition, kind of a shrimp boil with extras. Very easy, good for big groups, and a lot more affordable than serving straight crab or shrimp at today's prices.)
Besides doing the corn, I baked muffins, did a load of wash, ran the dishwasher, did all the animal chores, took a bath, and caught up on emails. Nice to catch up before the last day of the fair.
