2026 Utah State Fair Quilt Challenge

 

We hit the state fair on opening day yesterday. We should have bought tickets online first, because the ticket booth line was easily an hour long. We checked out the quilts in the Pioneer Building. I was surprised (but really pleased) to see mine wearing a blue ribbon. I guess I’ll find out what the ribbon’s for after the fair closes. We visited the dairy cows and goats, and admired the 4H displays and the butter cow. The rides and games were still setting up, but there was lots of fair food. We had curry mac & cheese with brisket burnt ends, chicken fried rice, and crab cake corn dogs with seviche. It was over $60 for three rather small servings, but the food was good and absolutely unique. We hit a pineapple Dole whip food truck on the way out. That wasn’t exactly fair food, but it was exactly what the doctor ordered.
