It's time again for the Ohio State Fair, which means it's time for a deep fried fair food feast! A staple at the fair since 1965, Marshall Family French Waffles. Basically a branding iron is dipped in batter and dropped in a deep fryer to create the crunchy, flaky, sweet treats.

Ohio State Fairgrounds
Welcome to your new Lustron home! Pick one of four floor plans and then pick out one of four exterior colors: "Surf Blue," "Dove Gray," "Maize Yellow," and "Desert Tan." Lustron houses are prefabricated enameled steel houses developed in the post-World War II era United States in response to the shortage of houses for returning GIs. The low-maintenance, extremely durable, baked-on porcelain enamel finish was expected to attract modern families who might not have the time or interest in repairing and painting conventional wood and plaster houses.

On the north side of Ohio Stadium, also known as the Horse Shoe, there's a huge archway with a beautiful mosaic and pictures of iconic players. Though I've been to the 'Shoe many times, it was only recently that I discovered the flowers at the top of the arch. #UrbanJungle
