Amish Country (lots of pics!)

This past week I spent in the New Wilmington/Volant/Grove City, PA area and got to buy some pretty cool stuff at the Outlets and the local Amish Shops. Here is what I got:

1st some HUGE cookies (at least 4 inches !)from the Rockey Mountain Chocolate Factory (Not Amish):

Apple Something (not my fave, too crunchy)

And at the Heinz Store at the Outlets I got this toy:

Next, some candy marshmallows, just like in Lucky Charms but I didn't have to pick them all out of the box! I have no idea what I am going to make with these, so if you have any ideas, let me know!

Finally, some pictures of the local Amish (taken while my bf was driving, so they aren't that great) and then some pictures of the Amish made mini-pie and honey butter that I bought:

I have never had Honey-Butter before, and this pack has 4 varieties so I am very excited to try them all!! The apple pie was for my mom, I got myself a black-raspberry one, that was AMAZING! The crust held the little pie up all on its own without any pie plate but was still soft to eat!!

I am also excited for this new cookbook I got from Westminster College, where I almost attended (but went to PSU instead for $ reasons)

I'm going to go through it tonight so I'll post any superfun recipes.
