The annual Bearcreek carnival was definitely one of Daria's favorite events that the town put on. For one, the carnival company that they usually hired to bring in the games and rides also had their own food trucks, so she never felt compelled to have anything for her cafe there. Sure, there were a few booths that were exceptions and not part of the carnies, but at least she knew there were enough sweet treats around, she didn't need to bring her whole bakery with her. She actually got to walk around and enjoy the night, treat herself. This year she'd even felt particularly adventurous and bought tickets for the rides. Standing over next to the ferris wheel, in all it's rickety glory, she looked up at the cars, just swaying with people laughing and having a good time. "You know, normally this thing scares the shit out of me, but I might have to give it a try this year. You wanna be my ride buddy?" She asked the person next to her.
