@@@ Taking a day to explore the Thurston County Fair is a summer tradition that Heather Short is passing on to her three kids, ages 6, 7 and 9.She said she s always enjoyed the fair s small-town feel and variety of activities. Our kids just really <a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Louis Vuitton Speedy Round</a> enjoy the animals and, of course, the rides, said Short, 39, of Lacey, as she waited for her kids to finish rides in the carnival area.By noon Sunday, the fair was on track to beat last year s attendance of 33,350 people by about 3,000, said fair coordinator Theresa Reid. We re trending up, she said. It s good. The boost in tickets was most likely because of a stronger economy, Reid said. People have a little more disposable income, she said. Other factors included sunny weather which always helps the fair attendance new activities and some additional promotional efforts such as bus advertisements, Reid said.The fair s animal barns and show arenas had the most activity throughout the day, with events such as Equine Western Games and the 4-H dog grooming competition. In the fair s cattle competition, a 1,500-pound Black Angus named Gohr s Emulus, or Emmy, won top awards in the FFA show and the adult showmanship contest.Teresa Smith of Lacey said her son s 2-year-old cow gets the royal treatment at home. In fact, she sleeps in a horse stall every night. She has a fan in the barn, and if it gets really hot, we have a (water) mister for her, Smith said. My husband calls her The Gucci Cow because she has more products and has more time spent on her hair than I do. Meantime, at the fair s Author s Corner, Maureen Bieker, sold and signed copies of her new book, The Paper Tiger. This is my first public appearance, said Bieker, 47, of Olympia, who writes under the pen name Mary Ann Baker. She works in information technology for Thurston County, and spent about three years writing the story about a runaway who joins a circus. The book was released in January by Amazon, and she s already begun to pen a sequel. It s fiction, but the stories and the subplots, those are things that are in my life, Bieker said. It was a story that had to be told it just had to come out.

-Do <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com>Celine Bags Outlet</a> you have a family to feed tonight? Friends coming over for dinner? Or maybe it's just you, and you want something a little special.聽Special doesn't mean it has to take a long time. Who has time, anyway? Here's is an easy recipe from the Washington Post.聽Pan-Seared Pork Tenderloin With TarragonYield: 4 servings1-pound pork tenderloinKosher saltFreshly ground black pepper1 large shallot3 cloves garlic3 tablespoons unsalted butter4 stems tarragon3/4 cup no-salt-added chicken broth1/4 cup dry white wine (may substitute 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar)1 teaspoon granulated sugar1/2 lemon1. Use a small, sharp knife to cut the silver skin and any visible fat from the tenderloin. Cut the meat into four equal portions. Place each one between 2 pieces of plastic wrap; pound to a thickness of 1/4-inch. Pat each piece with paper towels, then season lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.2. Mince the shallot and garlic; they can be combined.3. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of the butter; tilt the pan to coat it evenly. Add 2 of the pork cutlets and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate; cover loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Repeat with another tablespoon of the butter and the remaining 2 cutlets.4. Finely chop the tarragon leaves.5. Add the shallot <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com>Celine Outlet Store</a> and garlic to the skillet, stirring to coat. Cook for 1 minute, until the garlic is fragrant, then add the broth, wine and sugar. Squeeze in a tablespoon of lemon juice, being careful not to let any pits fall in. Increase the heat to high; stir to dislodge any browned bits and cook for 3 or <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com>Celine UK</a> 4 minutes or until the liquid has reduced by one-third.6. Add any meat juices that have accumulated on the plate of cutlets. Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter and the tarragon; cook for 1 minute, then pour the sauce over the cutlets. Serve right away.Per serving: 240 calories, 24 g protein, 3 g carbohydrates, 13 g fat, 7 g saturated fat, 95 mg cholesterol, 130 mg sodium, 0 g dietary fiber, 2 g sugarAdapted from "The New Cast Iron Skillet Cookbook: 150 Fresh Ideas for America's Favorite Pan," by Ellen Brown (Sterling Epicure, 2014).
