    Amish in The News: New York Times Tackles Buggy Safety, Amish Chili Cornbread Salad, and More!

    BUGGY SAFETY:  This story is notable mainly because of where it ran/who wrote it: The New York Times.  They do seem to maintain an interest in Amish issues and I will say that I like the way they reached out to some more offbeat sources.  Often the media goes for the "low hanging fruit", the same sources over and over to get a quick quote about the Amish.  As a journalist, I've gone that route too. But there are more than 3 - 4 "Amish experts" out there, there are a whole wealth of people with different experiences and perspectives so I think,true to form, the NYT did a great job on this article.

    Buggy safety caught the eye of the New York Times this week...

    AMISH COUNTRY CHILI CORNBREAD SALAD:  Check out Amish Country chef Lee Ann Miller's excellent recipe to add some warmth to these cold winter days! Click here.

    BLAST FROM THE PAST - SAM MULLET ATTEMPTS AN APPEAL:  Interesting, Sam Mullet, the leader of the "Amish cult" near Bergholz, Ohio is attempting to get out of jail on appeal citing errors from his previous attorney, Ed Bryan.  I had some lengthy conversations with Ed when he was defending Mullet and he seemed to feel very passionately that this was a "local church issue" and the penalty was too severe.   This is an interesting line of defense, doubt it'll work.

    MENNONITE CHURCH SPLITS:  The larger, organized Mennonite church continues to unravel, driven apart by internal divisions over gay marriage, women in the ministry, etc, read more here.
