HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB PIE: Dixie’s Kitchen features a superb-looking recipe for Amish strawberry rhubarb pie. To me, nothing says summer in Amish country more than strawberry-rhubarb pie…the flavors meld in this amazing blend of sweet and tart and,yeah, nothing better than this pie. And, as Dixie, says topped with a scoop of vanilla, it is pure amazing. Click here for this superb recipe.
MENNONITE WRITER’S RETREAT: Gina, of Home Joys, shares about her “writer’s retreat” that she attended with a few other ladies. I’d love a writer’s retreat, they are very helpful and spiritually refreshing in terms of inspiring one to write. Click here to see photos and read more. Her husband Ed passed away over a year ago and it is nice to see her living so fully, but still hard to believe Ed is gone.
CHERYL MCNULTY PAINTING PROGRESSES: Cheryl has another delightful painting in progress of an Amish girl. I can’t wait to see how this one turns out. But, for now, take a look at how it is progressing. And, stay tuned, I’ll be sending a Cheryl a photo of our daughter Beatrice soon so she can do a portrait, she find one of Aster at that age, it’ll be fun to see Bea! Click here.
