Sure, my family church has potlucks all the time, where all of the ladies bring green bean casserole and Waldorf salad.

I brought pigs and did a sewing project every year for the county fair and won prizes like crazy. It was seriously the highlight of my summer: seeing all of my boy-crushes outside of school, getting to wear western clothes to the pig judging, and eating all the carnival food I could handle.

My header picture is from the other county-fair-like yearly event in the next town over from mine back in Ohio. There’s a pie bake-off and contests for everything imaginable. I highly recommended a road trip (so you can write about it in your travel book, naturally).

i’ve always wanted to live in a small town…but never have. it’s probably for the best, though. i’m sure i’d be blacked-balled within 16 seconds for not being able to whip up a green bean casserole for the weekly potluck. do small towns really have those?! and how about county fairs? i’ve always wanted to go to one of them…with a pie bake-off…

You would sort of be the worst eye doctor ever.

“Can you see the Anytime Fitness across the parking lot? Good. I’d say that’s about 20/20 vision. Go on home.”

For a moment, I thought asking for a license plate number was like an impromptu eye test. Like, “Look out your window and see if you can read this license plate.” Wow, I’m slow.
