20 Fair Foods With Recipes, For The People Missing Everything Deep Fried On A Stick

Something many of us Americans look forward to each year is state and county fairs. Some people go to the fair for the rides, the games, or the petting zoo, but the majority of us go because of the food.

Due to the pandemic, most fairs this year were canceled, but not without some push back from the people. Like most things this year though, the people lost, and many of us had to go without our yearly funnel cakes, pizza on a stick, and cotton candy.

To help with your cravings, I compiled a list of some of the top fair foods and their recipes so you can get your fried food grub on from home this year. Hopefully, one of these hits the spot just right and holds you over until next year.

So, although many of us didn't have the opportunity to attend our local and state fairs this year, hopefully making some of these recipes will make you feel like you did. Now go and make something sweet and fried, because honestly, there's nothing better.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate.
