MeeMaw’s Double Crunch Onion Rings: I got some onion rings are Burger King recently and, dang, they were so stingy with them. The onion rings were tiny and the container was about half full. No, if I am going to get onion rings, I want big, crunchy rings.
These look pretty perfect!
The casual dining chain, Red Robin, has consistently good onion rings. But, wow, these double crunch onion rings from MeeMaw look amazing (MeeMaw is a food blogger in Kalona, Iowa, home of the state’s largest Amish settlement and their influence does often seep into her cooking and baking).

Dessert Recipes From Lehman’s: Lehman’s is that mainstay of Ohio’s Amish country and off-the-grid survivalists. I could – and have – spend hours aimlessly wandering the aisles of this amazing and sprawling hardware/home store in Kidron, Ohio. You do get a good mix of customers there, from local Amish browsing for essentials to the survivalists to the tourists. The company founder’s granddaughter posted several amazing-sounding dessert recipes from a recent Lehman’s cookbook. Click here for three sweet treats, wow, the carrot cake looks superb.
