What’s the Picture For?

Before you read this post, you need to read this post.

I returned to the annual carnival and saw the same booth as last year. I was glad to see they still sell Cheesburgers, but the Sandwhiches are gone. Before I made my selection, I took this photo.

June 20, 2009

Just like last year, a woman in back of the booth saw me and, with a very stern look on her face, said, “What’s the picture for?”

I smiled my very nicest smile and said, “Every year I come and try something new.”

Her face lit up as she said, “You were here last year!”

“Yes I was,” I replied.

She said, “I have the fried pickles I told you about. Do you want to try them.”

I was amazed that she’d remembered our entire conversation. I told her I’d like to try the pickles. She said, “They’re on me.” She went into the cooking area and prepared them for me herself.

She handed them to me and said, “Here ya go, Sweetie. Let me know what you think.”

They were very tangy but tasty, and the ranch dressing was a good addition. When I was done, I went back to the booth and thanked the woman again and told her the pickles were very good.

Stay tuned for next year. I still haven’t tried their Oreos, Reeses, Milky Ways or “fun shaped” chicken tenders.

    Seriously, Roger, the only fried food you seem to have issues with is chicken. What gives?

    However, props for not titling this post “There are two types of people in this world …” You demonstrated remarkable restraint.

    Pickles and Twinkies don’t have bones.
