Mama in the City: Deep Fried Oreos and Family Fun

Well, Hello There!

Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!

Hi! I'm Andrea, a 30 something girl who loves living the downtown lifestyle and didn't want to give it up once I started a family. I live in beautiful Vancouver city right along the seawall and three years ago I had my first baby.

My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!

I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.

I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.

Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

Deep Fried Oreos and Family Fun

Posted by Andrea F August 26, 2010

If you live in BC you probably already know all about the annual summer event of the PNE in Vancouver. It's a Vancouver classic and has been around for 100 years, it started out to be all about farms and animals but now the tradition includes mini donuts, fair rides and of course the Super Dogs show.

This year we went with both of my sisters, both of their husbands, and my niece and nephew. We had a total of 6 adults and 3 kids in tote while we toured around the grounds. We hit all the classic exhibits and consumed a large amount of mini donuts and fair food.

My husband really wanted to try the PNE's deep fried Oreos. There was the choice of deep friend Jelly Beans along with the traditional funnel cake. Of course.

We had so much fun that we missed Ben's afternoon nap. He did so well and was fueled with fair food and fun, but he ended up crashing on the car ride home.
