Unique Greasy Food at Fair

Night View

I had a really great time with my friends at Spokane County Interstate Fair last week. Since there were a lot of things at the fair, which were quite different from Japanese festivals, I was surprised a lot. Above all, the difference of food was really interesting for me, just because I love to eat. I could try a lot of kinds of food, which we cannot eat in Japan. Some of the food looked a little strange and greasy, however, all of it was tasty! There was three main kinds of food which I tried at the fair.

Curry French Freies 
First, as soon as we arrived, I found that a lot of people were eating curly, enormous French fries. Though I was really surprised at the size of them, I decided to try some, soon. When I found the shop, I was also surprised at how to order. The ordering line and getting the order were different lines. The ordering place and picking up the order were in different lines. Therefore it would be possible for someone to not pay the money can get curly French flies by just waiting in the pickup line. It is strange, I think. By the way, the taste of the fries was OK. They tasted a little salty, even before we sprinkled salt on them. The funny thing was that since they made a whole potato was used, we can eat fries, shaped like a top. In Japan, almost all of the French fries are the same shape, a stick shape. This difference was interesting for me. All of these differences were interesting and extend my view of food.

Next, I shared an elephant ear with 3 friends. I had never eaten one before I went to the fair, so I imagined that it was a big pie. Yet, the real one was far bigger than my imagination. It was absolutely enormous! I could easily understand why it is called an elephant ear. I planned to eat it just by myself, yet we decided to share it with each other. It was lighter and had more cinnamon than I expected, however, it was nice. A snack with cinnamon taste is not so common in Japan. I rarely eat it in Japan, yet now I am about to get hooked on cinnamon.

greasy food!! 
Finally, I ate a deep fried Oreo snack at the end of the fair. I could not find out what it was at first. However, since I do like Oreos, I decided to try it. We had to wait a few minutes for it to fry. It meant that we could eat it fresh from the oven. It was absolutely wonderful!! The crunchy texture was disappeared and it melted in my mouth. I had never heard of such an idea to fry a snack, so it was a sensational, novel, and fantastic food!


In conclusion, thorough the fair, I could find a lot of interesting food. All of it has value to try. American food is enormous, not delicate, and greasy, however, at the same time, it is sometimes novel, strange, and interesting! I want to try to cook it in my house in Japan.

Unforgettable Southwest Trip

I went on a totally amazing Southwest trip with my classmates. The trip was my first time to go to the Southwest so everything was new to me. Sarah, Anikke and Bethany came with us. They made our trip more exciting. I’m happy I could go on this trip with them and I had a lot of great experiences. First, I really enjoyed New Mexico. It was chilly but not too cold. I went to the Old Town in  Albuquerque, New Mexico. I liked the Old Town because there are many cute things and good restaurants in there. For example, I found a gate that was decorated with a lot of red chili peppers. I had never seen anything like that before so I was very surprised and it looked like a lot of flowers from a distance. The red chili peppers were absolutely gorgeous. Not only that, I found a great restaurant. I forgot the name of the restaurant but they have really delicious Mexican food. They gave me some Mexican chips for free and recommended that I eat the chips with honey. I really like Mexican chip

My most Amazing Three Memories of the Southwest Trip

Last week, I went to the Southwest with all of the Extension students. Before the trip, we learned about history and culture of the Southwest in American west class. So I was looking forward to going on the Southwest trip. But I couldn’t imagine that I could get a lot of memories and experiences on this trip. During this time, we went to New Mexico and Arizona. In New Mexico, I went to Santa Fe and New Mexico University. After that, I went to the Grand Canyon in Arizona. Each place has different culture and geography. So I was really surprised and impressed by them. Finally, I got three most amazing memories of the Southwest Trip. First, one of my most amazing memories of South West Trip was downtown in Santa Fe. First of all, I was really impressed by Adobe buildings. I had never seen Adobe buildings before and I thought their design was totally different design from Spokane. The color of the adobe was brown and some of the walls were turquoise blue. So there were a lot of com

Really Faburous Southwest Trip

I had an absolutely amazing experience on the Southwest trip in mid-October. I enjoyed a good deal of beautiful scenery of nature and city areas, delicious food and performances, and culture. I spent a lot of wonderful time with my friends and teachers in Santa Fe, Black Bart’s Restaurant and the Grand Canyon. I enjoyed a good deal of beautiful scenery of nature and city, delicious food and performance, and culture. First, my one of impressive places was Santa Fe Plaza. There were brown houses and buildings made of adobe, and the doors and window frames and decorations were colorful. I like passionate red and turquoise blue color because these colors match the adobe brown color. Also, there were many gift shops in the Plaza, and we could find a lot of native Americans gifts such as dream catchers, pottery, fabrics, unique fashion accessories, dishes, and traditional clothes. I bought a dreamcatcher, some pretty earrings, a ring, and postcards, so I was very happy. It rained at nig
