To the street fair!

Skagit's Annual Street Fair
in downtown Mount Vernon
It's only a 5-min drive from my brother's house.



Merchandise booths






Dry goods being sold are rather pricey (I'm converting it to PhilPesos!? hehehe) but of mediocre quality.



My US$5/pc
dingleberry kabob






Did I just say
dingleberry? Hahaha. Never mind. I was also holding a choco-dipped strawberry kabob that belongs to Madires.



Mama Sita
este Madires






People were staring at us... because of what we're eating. Ikaw ba naman ebak este dingleberry ang kinakain mo. An old Caucasian guy even shouted at us, "Hey! That looks yummy".



Here comes the interesting part - I caught a Filipino family with a middle-aged white guy in tow, looking at me.
Of course, I took off my sunglasses and smiled at them. Now, that's sarcasm! Hehehe. Two of the daughters (very Filipino-looking but with blonde hair) were whispering at each other's ears with matching fingers pointing at me. Let me guess, they said, "Lookie! That's like a Filipina who doesn't even look like us. She's like not dyed her hair, blonde and like shaved like her eyebrows like to a thin like line. Ewww... a F.O.B!"... Hahaha kidding!





Native Americans playing
celtic-sounding songs






They're selling their album/cd for only US$15.00.


A few pics here.


Nothing really interesting in the said fair so we left an hour later.



Allow me to introduce a new photo blog of an online friend. It features
Pinoy style, South Beach diet foods:
