Fair Life, is a featured series I’m writing on the 2012 Iowa State Fair. I’m going to try to post something different each day I’m at the fair that features some behind-the-scenes looks at different aspects of the state fair along with factual information.

Today I’m competing in the Iowa 4-H Cook This! Culinary Challenge. Come see me cook! I will post updates tonight about how I did!

We are planning on cooking a stir fry with some meat and sweet & sour sauce. For a dessert, we are making ice cream and including an iowa grown fruit, another fruit, and cherries. Also we are going to be making a fruit sauce to put over the chosen fruit.

I’ll take some photos and post them up later tonight along with my updates!
