    As the summer progresses we'll be visiting the midwife more and more.  She is located in rural Wayne County, Indiana in the middle of a large Amish settlement, so I always enjoy going to visit.  Recently, I noticed a new Amish-owned business near her.  Unfortunately, they are only open on Fridays and Saturdays so I have not had a chance to check them out. I think I am going to have to make sure we schedule one of our midwife visits for a Friday!  Have any of our readers been there?

    Of course, I am always up for a visit to Fountain Acre Foods in Wayne County, an Amish-owned bulk food store and bakery. On our last visit up there I procured  some "peanut butter meltaways" and they were delicious!  Here is a recipe for these that is common in Amish kitchens.
