  1. The best vegetable soup (possibly beef stock, I cannot be certain) was at an Amish-style restaurant near Lancaster, PA. My grandmother lived there when I was young. I can still taste it 40+ years later.

    This looks pretty tasty as well. 🙂

  2. Good winter dish to heat one up .Or on a day rainy.Nothing beats old fashioned stew.Amish Im still researching seems a sect who refuse modern living. Stick with the horse and no TV. is this the was they live? Never heard of them until now. They eat well and grow all the need seems a good way to go. Will not give up my cars though

    • That’s OK, I won’t give up electricity either! They don’t use electricity. Yes they farm the land with horses, have community barn raisings and are very religious. a very admirable community.

  3. As Fall approaches, all the nice smells in the kitchen … stews and soups simmering on the stove and apple and pumpkin pies … makes me hungry looking at pictures like this Diane.

      • I am sure, it was.
        On your blog there are so delicious things. One question:
        Have you ever tasted “Poutine”? Once a week I am cooking Poutine and my husband loves it. Maybe this dinner could be a fine recipe for your blog too.

      • In Europe it is hard to find the typical cheese for this recipe. So I am using Gouda instead. It is only necessary getting a melting cheese.

        There are so many ways making great Poutine, a needed more than 10 versions to find my version 🙂

        I am sure you will find the perfect way for your Poutine-version.
