Watch funnel cakes being made (and then eat one)

Date taken: June 16, 2012

Location: Midsummer Music & Food Festival at Candler Park

In the 1920s, Asa Candler, the Coca-Cola co-founder, former Atlanta mayor and Druid Hills resident, donated more than 50 acres of his land to the city of Atlanta. Today, that land is Candler Park, and it’s home to a public golf course, swimming pool, playground, pavilions, basketball court and several fields. Each year, the park hosts at least three annual festivals — Sweetwater 420 Fest, Midsummer Music Festival, Candler Park Fall Fest. And, I believe you can find a cold Coca-Cola at all of them.
