Amish Country Visit . . .

we went to Amish Country the last few days and had a great time . . . food was wonderful . . .

I thought I would spend a ton of $$ on fabric . . . went to several shops . . . and bought NOTHING . . . there just wasn't anything there I wanted . . . everything was kind of old . . . fabrics I saw 2 years ago in my local shops . . . I was bummed !! . . . I guess I have the best 4 shops right where I live !!

I did find a good Amish bookstore . . . so I found a new author of Amish books, which I really like to read . . .

the other disappointment was Hershey . . . we went there to buy raspberry chocolate chips . . . Hershey has always been the only place I could get them . . . and . . . they are NOT making them anymore . . . darn . . . I loved putting them in my brownies . . .

but we still had a good trip . . . spent time with some friends . . . and then went to Philadelphia to meet up with my son and his family from Virginia . . . we toured the US Mint and the Benjamin Franklin Science Museum . . . and most important . . . we got to spend time with our 2 grandsons . . . always fun ! ! !

Raspberry flavored chocolate chips sound like heaven! You can't get them anymore? That is a disaster! I wonder if you could find a gourmet raspberry flavored chocolate bar and chunk it up yourself?
Sounds like you had a lovely vacation.
