Weekend Fluff Festival

Anyone like to eat marshmallow fluff? Well, our neighboring town of Somerville has a festival each year celebrating the creation of fluff in their very own town. Every September, Union Square pays tribute to Archibald Query and his invention of Marshmallow Fluff in 1917. So yesterday we braved the rainy weather and took Vince to his first Fluff Festival. There were girl scouts selling their cookies packed with fluff filling and chocolate, various ice cream stores selling desserts concocted with fluff, and high school band members selling fluffer nutters as a fund raiser. For those of you on the west coast... fluffer nutters are sandwiches with peanut butter and marshmallow fluff on white bread. Not exactly a food of choice for anyone with blood sugar issues (or otherwise).

Vince is reading up about Fluff Boy on the computer before heading to the festival


Games and Prizes were around, here's one for knocking down the Fluff jars
