When you were growing up, did you enjoy going to fairs?

I remember having so much fun going to the Wisconsin State Fair! Some of my favorite things to do there were eating cream puffs 🤤and riding the SkyGlider.

At small fairs, I remember having a blast on rides and enjoying snow cones and cotton candy. The blue cotton candy was my preferred cotton candy. 😋Yes, I was aware that it tasted the same as the pink cotton candy. 😆

I just LOVED cotton candy! Now, I think it is too sweet. 😉 What do you think of it?

This week’s song is “Don’t You Love Cotton Candy?” from “The Runaway Club,” Season 5, Episode 16 of Bob’s Burgers.

The episode is a hilarious parody of The Breakfast Club, and the kids want to be out at the cotton candy festival rather than stuck in detention. The song is a parody of “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” by Simple Minds.

Lyrics:

Don’t you love cotton candy?
It’s made of cotton and also candy
If your fingers get sticky
Eat off your hand
Lickety-licky

Don’t you love cotton candy?
Ah, don’t, don’t
Don’t, don’t
Don’t you love cotton candy?
Oh, yeah

The song is funny! 😂 I have never heard of a cotton candy festival, but if I had been able to go to one as a kid, I definitely would have—and definitely would have gotten sick from eating too much cotton candy. 🤣

How do you like the song?

What fairs/festivals did you enjoy when you were growing up? What were you favorite foods to get there?

Wishing you well! 💛
