Prairie Days Town Celebration & Craft Show

Prairie Days is this weekend, and I’m really looking forward to it. Not only do we have a craft table, but the kids always enjoy the activities which go on all weekend. Last year we took turns sitting at the table, while the other takes the kids around to the rides and games.

I’ve also got someone of a tradition when it comes to events like this. I MUST have a corn dog, no matter what. I don’t know why, but it’s a must. Use to be the only place you could get a corn dog was at the state fair or at big events. Now they sell them in the store, but it’s just not the same. I’ve got to have my corn dog served fresh and made right in front of me.

Enough about foods though. The partner (my mother) is busy pouring candles and getting ready for Friday and Saturday. She’s made sure to have our most popular scents on hand. This includes French Vanilla Coffee, Country Home, Vanilla, Cinnamon Sticks, Best Friends, Hummingbird, and several others. Most of the time we just never know what’s going to sell, and it’s often a surprise. Even still, some scents still sell better than others.

If you are in the central Iowa area, come on down to Prairie City and see us! We’ll be right on the square with the other crafters, and free smells are always available. :)
