anyhow, we went to the jazz and ribs festival last weekend. americans have a weird way of combining stuff but i totally applaud this particular combination. the thing was held in the bicentennial park in downtown columbus. and of course it just had to be a 90+ degree day. the place was packed and it wasn't easy too get around, but being the edsa 2 veteran that i am, i had no problem squeezing through the throngs to get to what i wanted which were 2 things 1) funnel cake and 2) ribs. on that day, pretty much nothing could get in between me and spare ribs. i actually didn't have red meat ALL WEEK in preparation for this so i was psyched. there is of course the issue of picking which vendor to buy ribs from. they all had trophies and banners claiming that they won in some barbeque contest in wisconsin or wichita or whatever other places. that didn't really help at all so our method involved finding the one with a reasonable number of people in line. we figured you really coudn't get bad ribs right? and we did get pretty good ribs. i only had one regret and that's that i should've foreseen that barbequed ribs would be so much better if i had rice. . . but at least i know that for next year. . . and aside from cinnamon sugar elephant ears (very similar to funnel cake), i also had chocolate-dipped frozen banana. . . just typing that up makes my mouth water. . . hmmmm. . ."so, how was the jazz?" you may ask. truth is i really couldn't tell you because they could have been playing crap for all i care but i was too full and satisfied to notice. we actually stayed behind the stage so we could hear the band pretty well without being with the crowd in front. they were playing latin jazz fusion of some kind. i would've dance if my butt wasn't too heavy from all the food. and i wouldn't have had anyone to dance with, because as much as i'm crazy about that boy, i'm not that crazy about his dancing skills =)
