En Ka Fair

Every year, during the third weekend in May, the Winchester En Ka Society holds it's annual fair.  Complete with rides, booths, and food, it is a good size local carnival.  Part of the proceeds go to the En Ka Society, who in turn provide grants for students, work with the mentally challenged, and provide services within the town.  The En Ka fair runs on the Friday from 11-midnight and kicks off with a parade on Saturday morning at 9 am.  The parade leaves from Winchester High School on Skillings Road.  The fair opens on Saturday at ten and runs again until midnight.  Parking is available on the streets that intersect at Skilings Road and Mt. Vernon Street.  Tickets are available on Thursday evening for slightly cheaper than on Friday and Saturday.

Quick Kiddie Takeout Meal

I have lost the guilt over not being able to cook every meal and resort to takeout on occasion.  My husband actually found this kiddie meal that we are a big fan of at Chipotle, a burrito chain.  It costs $3.99 and includes a taco kit- rice, beans, and a meat if desired, a taco or burrito shell, organic milk or juice, and a little baggie of chips.  Since there are so many Chipotle locations, it is an easy pick up.  The ingredients they use are part of "Food with Integrity," meaning the animals are supposed to be humanely raised and ingredients fresh with a low impact on the environment.  I haven't researched this thoroughly, but would love to believe that it's true.  Meanwhile, the convenience of the locations and the fresh burritos are great!
