The cacophony of differently pitched screams, screeches and yelps are piercing through my eardrums, like the Tower of Babel. However not all of what I can hear is beastly. The cheeky giggles of children and the low-pitched laughter of the teachers bring a massive smile to my kindle face. I’m deafened by the stall-owners and barkers and their cry for customers, “Win the game and get yourself into the lucky draw!” One would belch out, or “go on have a go-shoot the cans!” another stall owner will scream out. The cries seem to work, as elated customers approach the decorated stalls.
Looking round, I notice beauty-holic stalls, chatoyant vivid nail paints over the table like a rainbow canvas at the nail art stall. As I took a few steps forward, I see the vibrant and brilliant streaked hair braided very professionally, the hair-styling stall. Once, moving forward, zipped back and forth across the queue of games stalls. Trying out the luck with lucky 7 and giving the best shots with the cans. Going all wild with the mud games and tattoing the face and hand. Adding colour to the event, face painting was a strike.
The sky was dotted with a few fluffy clouds that looked like candy floss. Below, students stood watching, eating their sweets and snacks. Ice creams wobbled perilously over and dripped down their fingers as they melted. Some munched on brightly coloured balls of candy floss. The strands dissolved on the tongue and the sweet sugar stuck to the teeth like glue. Groups of friends sipped on drinks and appetized themselves with divine, delish, luscious bites and the tempting, savory roadside paani puri and chaat. With the fuse of cuisines the bake sale was a continental platter.
And BANG! with the major hit of the event. The jumping castle. Already I’m certain I can bump my way to merriment and amusement. Whilst the fragile bodies are vibrating vigorously, removing thin, brown-black hair from the faces, laughing and breathing together. The impact of the jumps and

    15 years, 14 weeks, 5 days and 44 minutes later, heretofore known as Now, Young Sigrid became ‘The Pie-Maker’, opening her own bakery, complete with a pie-crust roof and aptly named ‘The Pie Hole’. It was her sanctuary, a place where her gift of mysterious origin and dangerous consequence could do some good. No fruit ever went to waste in the Pie-Maker’s hand, but would retain its ripe flavour forever more, so long as she did not touch it again. When asked what it was that gave the fruit pies their fresh and flavoursome appeal, the Pie-Maker would shrug with a modest smile and simply said that it was her late mother’s recipes that made all the difference.…

    Food has been a topic of deliberation and study for years, mostly due to its implications for the society and people who consume it. Many people research foods in different ways and use the information they gather to come to various conclusions about people, places, times, or things. Namely, in the article “Time, Sugar, and Sweetness” author Sidney W. Mintz poses a very compelling discussion on sugar for its use in history and for its use today, while in the article “Why Revolutionaries Love Spicy Food” author Andrew Leonard contemplates the success of the chili pepper in China. Furthermore, in “More Than Just the ‘Big Piece of Chicken’” author Psyche Williams-Forson explores the creation and prosperity of chicken-related black stereotypes. Out of all three articles, however, Mintz’s “Time, Sugar, and Sweetness” was the most cogent, as his contained more unique ideas, the best support,…

    The dining area of Rocking Horse Ranch was always hot and crowded during meal times, where the tired, overworked servers would bustle around attempting to provide excellent customer service for each and every inane request from the guests. I’ve heard that loud, hectic, quick-paced atmospheres filled with pretentious parents and scrambling children are almost calming sometimes. This atmosphere never brought me serenity; it gave me anxiety and stressed me out. Just the thought of sweeping melted ice cream cones off of the stained carpet and dry mopping the tiles floors gives me nightmares.…

    I was at the Elma Fair Grounds, entering the building where we bought our tickets. Exiting that same building right when I got out I received a firm smack in the face by some exquisite smells of cotton candy, fries, burgers, popcorn, with a mixture with barn animals, , and burned rubber from the car races that I had missed due to showing up late. At the entrance I saw beautiful, magnificent, serene, massive, horses, next to the horses where playful, pudgy, and muddy pigs. After we passed the barn side that’s when the fries, popcorn and burger aroma kicked in, everywhere I looked I would see food, food stands, people walking around selling food and even food on the ground. However, one of the best parts about a fair are the carnival games. I could hear the sound of glass bottles being struck by a plastic object, which was music to my ears, I instantly knew it was the ring toss game one of my favorite and next to that one was the ping pong ball toss.…

    It was a rainy, humid summer afternoon in Disney’s Magic Kingdom. We were exhausted from all the walking we had done and thus decided to rest before heading to our next attraction. We sat on a bench near a food kiosk, watching the multitude of people come and go. Thereafter, my troublesome brother and I had gone to buy a churro and a water. While in line he asked for me to buy him a pretzel, but I complained that it was overpriced and perhaps not even tasty.…

    In 2015, Dunkin Donuts opened few stores and restaurants in other cities of India. Dunkin’ Donuts was also looking for distribution partners in smaller cities in India. Because of the similarities donuts have with Vada in Indian foods, Indian chef Pedro D’mello was asked to analyze and review the flavors offered at Dunkin’ Donuts. In 2015, he suggested that as the festival “Diwali” was associated with sweets, donuts should reflect those traditional flavors that might become quite appealing to the consumers. As families and friends share boxes of sweets viz., Mithai, and exchange “kheer”, the South Asian version of rice pudding, “jalebis”, deep-fried pretzel-shaped treats etc., he tried and developed various flavors. Among them flavors like a kesar badam (saffron-inflected almond milk) donut, topped with saffron cream, blanched almonds, and crushed pistachios; a milk cake donut filled with rice pudding; a soan papdi (flaky pastry) donut coated with chickpea flour; and a white chocolate donut topped with guava and chili became very popular. Overall, it took just three months to formulate the recipes for the new donuts. Thus, American products with a distinct Indian flavor resembling Indian sweets came into existence. Further, sufficient care was taken to store them in a cool environment to keep them fresh and…

    Everyone’s face shone with joy and the children shook their parent’s hands from side to side screaming happily. The sweet smell of fluffy cotton-candy tickled my nose as I entered the park. “Ooooh!Ahhhhh!” The cries of joy and sounds of machines whirring never seemed to stop.

    When you’re traveling to another city or even country, tasting the local food is as important as getting to know the culture and visiting some tourism places. Through local food, you get to know how people in that particular place you visit like their food. If you ever have the chance to visit the cultural city of Indonesia—Jogjakarta—then you’d know that Jogjakartans like sweet food. This belief will be confirmed if you taste the city’s very own sweet rolls—bakpia.…
