I wanted to share a few scenes from the "What the Fluff?" Festival today in Union Square, Somerville. A huge crowd braved the somewhat unpleasant weather to enjoy all the great activities (like fluff bowling, hula-hooping, and fluff-eating contests), entertainment from local bands, jugglers and acrobats, as well as a wealth of Fluff-based treats. All sorts of restaurants and bars joined in the fun with special drinks and dishes based on marshmallow Fluff.

A chocolate cupcake fluff parfait from Kickass Cupcakes— far too sweet to finish!

I want this awesome retro poster.

A family of fluff. No disrespect to the edible goodies, but that baby? Probably the yummiest thing at the whole festival!

A Fluffy Irishman (Coffee, frangelico and fluff) and a Fluff Alexander (brandy, creme de cacao, and fluff syrup) from The Independent. They reminded us that it is nearly hot toddy season!

A treat from the Fluff Fear Factor station: Dorito, pickle, hummus, roasted garlic, fluff, and pepperoni. A friend noted as I raised this to my mouth "Wow, there's not even a hint of fear on your face!" It tasted like nachos. Nachos covered with marshmallows.
