    Old Favorite: Amish Meets Italian

    Published: Jan 16, 2012 · Updated: Feb 2, 2021 by Kevin Williams | Leave a Comment

    I posted this a year or so ago on the old site, but since we have so many more visitors to this new site and it's a slow Monday evening, I thought I would post it again.  My life being so influenced by the Amish is rather ironic since my mother's side of the family is a sprawling Italian clan and my childhood was spent off and on in the cultural cauldron of Arabia.  And I pick the Amish??:)   Oh well, I thought I would merge the two in this video by introducing my grandmother (age 86) and my great-uncle to traditional, delicious "whoopie pies"....this video I guess could more accurately be entitled Mennonite Meets Italian because these delicious confections are from one of my favorite bakeries, the Mennonite-owned Country Crust Bakery outside of Bainbridge, Ohio.  Yum!:)  Anyway, click here to see what happens when Amish meets Italian.  I think it's pretty funny.

    Kevin Williams - The Amish Editor Amish Cook Column

    Hi There, I'm Kevin!

    Welcome to Amish365, where I share my knowledge of Amish cooking and culture! I’ve spent almost three decades exploring Amish settlements and kitchens from Maine to Montana and almost everywhere in between. I’ll occasionally throw in stories of my travels, journalism adventures (I’m a Pulitzer prize-nominated journalist), fascination with grocery stores and Kmarts, and much more!
