Re: Talk about the fair!

I'm in Iowa, of course we have a state fair. I love the animal pavilion, and the flowers and quilts in Varied Industries. I always have to eat a funnel cake. And of course you have to see the butter cow...and whatever else has been sculpted in butter; this year it's the Enterprise and crew in honor of the 50th anniversary of Star Trek:

People sculpt things out of butter???

Dammit, I can't open the link. Still haven't figured out how to highlight things on this phone...

I'm sorry, I somehow got an extra hyphen into "butter"--that's probably why it's not working.

And yes, the Butter Cow is an institution here. It's kept in a refrigerated showcase in Varied Industries. For years, it was always done by the same sculptor--the "Butter Cow Lady"--who recently passed on the job to a successor. After the fair, the butter is donated.

See if you have better luck with this link:

http://www.desmoinesregister.com/picture-gallery/news/2016/08/09/17-photos-butter-star-trek-tribute-at-state-fair/88454442/

And I was wrong about some of my facts: the showcase for the Butter Cow is in the Ag building, and the butter isn't donated--it's frozen and reused from year to year. Apparently, the same butter can be used for up to 10 years, which is a good thing because just the cow takes about 600 pounds of butter.

Nah it's not the link itself. It's that when I'm on my phone, I can't highlight entire links using my touch screen (or if I can, I haven't figured out how to do it yet) and I was on my phone when I read this comment yesterday.

Now I'm at a computer though, and wow! That is seriously impressive! It looks kinda gross too while they're sculpting but the end products are super clean-looking. I love it.
