Here we are for Day 24 of the series of that I’m moving over from my old blog that scheduled ahead of time while I’m recovering from shoulder surgery.

It’s the time of year for state and local fairs. I decided to pull out a really cool cookbook that I picked up a few years ago called Blue Ribbon USA: Prizewinning Recipes from State and County Fairs.
I love the signs from the old state fairs.
The recipes I want to try include Missouri’s Catfish Wraps, South Dakota’s Pumpkin Streusel Sweet Rolls and Rhode Island’s Apple-Cinnamon Oatmeal Bread…among others.
If you are like me, you grew up going to the fair every year. A big part of going to the fair is the food. Why not be able to recreate some of those foods at home? I love when I can recreate a recipe that brings back such sweet memories and this book does that for me.
