SAN GENNARO FEAST



San Gennaro Feast

We went to the Italian Festival friday night-I had a craving for a funnel cake.

We picked Miles up from school at 4 o'clock and headed straight there. $7 a person to get in, we got some FREE Starbucks and headed right for the Midway where they had the traditional carnival foot stands-Corn dogs, funnel cakes, lemonade, deep fried twinkies and the like

I got some cotton candy, a carmel apple, a LARGE order of Fries a corn dog and 2 funnel cakes PLUS a LEmonade.

What an after school SNACK!!!!!!!

Miles was excited to get on the rides so we got in line to get some tickets 20 for $30(rides 4 tix each)

First he wanted to pet the billy goats,rabbits and ponies at the petting zoo then we headed to use up some tickets

They had the Gravitron(like Silly Silo/Cyclone etc) Miles went on it 2X and the 2nd time a girl threw up-it was all kinds of unny-he had a great time

Miles also went the Glider ride where you lay on your stomach like on a hang glider and then get spun high and fast-he was waving at us every time around and we were screaming for him to HANG ON!!!

The Ring Of Fire is a Roller Coaster that simply goes around on a vertical loop til you puke-Miles was 1 inch to short to get on and was extremely disappointed-he was wanting to ride it bad.

He went to the house of mirrors with a slide and funhouse-he ran around it for for 20 -30 minutes to give us a chance to find a bench and rest our feet.

Miles then talked me into going on a ride with him-IT was awesome -I cannot recall the name of it it was a standard carnival ride where you spin FAST and high. I was dizzy when we got off , Miles was running to the next line for Bumper cars

After the Bumper cars we headed for the FEAST-where they had over 50 booths set up cooking sausages, cannolis, italian ice, pasta,pizza,kabobs,-IT WAS SWEET-they let you buy a wristband for $25 and you could go to every booth and they had a MINI sampler platter -small dixie plate.

It was great -we ate til our feet gave out and thank goodness they were passing out ALKA-Seltzer samples at the front gate!!!!!!!!!!!

We waited till 10 when the did the fireworks show and then we called it a night.

Saturday we plan on going to our favorite little diner "Hushpuppies" The only place around you can find GREEN FRIED TOMATOES-plus they have all the ribs,crab,alligator,catfish,chicken and other southern/midwestern cuisine you can ask for..ALL YOU CAN EAT RIB & CRAB nights are only $12.99----------

Well Im back to the drawing board on my idea with the CEREAL-now i've designed a VENDING Machine to dispense Cereall,Toppings and Milk into a LG Cup with a Spoon

25 cereals to choose from-1 scoop of each-get 2 scoops per cup

20 toppings

Dried Fruits(bananas,blueberries,strawberries,pineapple)

NUTS(almonds,pecans,walnuts,etc)

Candies(mini M&m's,Snickers bits, sprinkles,gummi bears)

Syrup(chocolate,Strawberry,Butterscotch)

and then 4 kinds of milk (whole,2%,soy,Lactose-free)

I probably wont be the one to make it happen but I can guarantee you will see cereal vending machine s in EVERY school, airport,mall and there will be aa cereal bar in every coffee shop and diner-CEREAL is a completely UNTAPPED food item in the restaraunt industry.
