There's a church or monastery or something like that just west of Portland that has a sausage festival every November. Bunch of different kinds of sausage. You can sit for dinner and/or buy the sausages and take them home to cook.

I've never been fond of food festivals. I've been to a few and they were just crowded outdoor affairs, terrible parking, eating while standing, and the whole thing ends up costing a bit more than the trouble involved. I would rather sit down at a decent restaurant instead.

I love it. End of summer time, lots of music, the BBQ is awesome, and let's not forget funnel cakes. I work security at the beer gardens one or two nights, and get paid for the experience. What's not to love?

My neck of the woods doesn't even have woods. The Chili Cookoff is not too far south of here, though.

Now I live in the Austin area and there are always somethin being promoted as a food based "event". Somehow it's not the same.

I live within a mile of the Cafe, we eat there quit a lot. Just really really wish they did breakfast!

I remember getting ice-cream for the shop years ago, The Black Cherry was to die for. Miss Jenny, the owner, charged 10¢ a dip. The salesman that supplied them the ice-cream told her she was loosing money on the ice-cream. She told him to go fish! It was her ice-cream and she could charge whatever she wanted!

Well the ice-cream is still pretty good, but they sure do like to charge for it now!

In Ann Arbor, MIchigan, where I live, they have the Bacon Festival. It started off about 12 years back, and nowadays, it has become quite an event. But, it is a pricey event, and only people of means can attend, which is why I dont attend. I think they want $195.00 for the basic fee for the festival.

In my old home town the local social club puts on a Testicle Festival every year. Pig, calf and turkey oysters. It is very well attended by the way.
