Buffalo Bill Days down here. Means I'm gonna get me a funnel cake!!!

HungLikeJesus · 07-25-2008, 06:47 PM

case - is it pretty crowded in Golden today?

What's a funnel cake?

kerosene · 07-25-2008, 06:59 PM

Yeah, they have 10th and washington closed off. I doubt I will find parking near there, so we might just walk to the park.

Srsly, you don't know what a funnel cake is?

sweet greasy goodness:

Sundae · 07-25-2008, 07:01 PM

I have to say... yes it does look greasy. I'll pass.
Thanks for the pic though, it's not at all what I expected.

DanaC · 07-25-2008, 07:10 PM

Not what I expected either.....looks like washed out jelabi.

Sundae · 07-25-2008, 07:21 PM

I expected fruit cake for some reason.
You know, proper dark dense fruit cake.
Must have been the context it was written about somewhere. Some sort of home baking scenario I imagine.

zippyt · 07-25-2008, 08:18 PM

SG , A funnel cake is fried doe , topped with Powdered sugar , i have seen cinnamon or coco powder as well .
They are KILLLLLLER !!!

SteveDallas · 07-25-2008, 08:45 PM

MMMM! Yummy (heart attack) carnival food goodness.

"Funnel" because you take the batter and pour it into a funnel, and then move it around as the batter runs out to make the cake.

SteveDallas · 07-25-2008, 08:49 PM

Also, zippy.... you know I don't usually pick on people's spelling

But you mean dough. Not doe. (Though I'm sure there are places you can buy fried doe.)

zippyt · 07-25-2008, 08:53 PM

there aint no minced up Deer in yer funnel cakes ????

Must be a Southern thang !!!!

Pie · 08-01-2008, 02:24 PM

So hey -- it's Friday afternoon, and I NEVER HAVE TO COME BACK HERE AGAIN.

No sh*t, it's my last day on the job. Sweet!

Griff · 08-01-2008, 02:45 PM

Sweet! Goodbye suxors!

DanaC · 08-01-2008, 03:14 PM

*smiles* Nice one Pie

Well, here we are again. Another Friday, seven days older and not much wiser than the last one. And, I really have to ask myself, what the fuck have I done this week? How.....no really, how can it be Friday again already?

See, now, that's the problem with going on an obsessive one. Whole weeks (and sometimes months) can just breeze on past your window unregarded.

Somewhere in amongst the haze of 1980s BBC sci-fi, I'm pretty sure I did some work. There was at least one Council meeting, a Group caucus and rally on the town-hall steps....I made a few phone calls, sent a few emails and read the odd report. Compress it all, I bet it wouldn't make a day and a half's worth of work. Last week's flurry of sorting and ruthless disposal of clutter was a good start to my summer mission but it has floundered somewhat this week, stranded on the badly-made, papier-mache rocks.

So, what do I have planned this weekend? Well....I was thinking of watching some early Doctor Who episodes....

It's Friday. This is a good thing. Friday is for indulgence.....Monday, now, next Monday I am going to get busy.....
