We enjoyed ourselves this past weekend at the King Richard's Faire. It's hard to believe that an entire year has passed so quickly since were were there last time! Though we weren't able to spend as much time at the faire this year, we still had just as grand a time. Strolling through the canopy of tall forest trees and the beginnings of a fall breeze adds greatly to the wonder of the faire, and the medieval music of bagpipes and pipes adds to the mythical feeling of the times.
Of course, we could not forget about the faire food. We learned from our mistake last year that one roasted turkey leg per person is by far too much. So, one turkey leg per two people it was!
This year, we were not alone and I'm glad E was there to join in on the forest festivities.
We arrived to the faire early this year and the long lines we experienced last year for the bloomin' onion was not an issue at all. We enjoyed our fried onion while watching children try their hand at the best ride/game at the faire: the Dragon Joust!
Finally, who can forget about "peasants' bread"? Warm fried dough with sweet powdered sugar and cinnamon.
Don't let the stifled smile fool you- peasants' bread is pretty much Chris' reason for going to the faire each year!
