Amish Acres

Bruce took me and Grandma to lunch at Amish Acres in Nappanee today. Neither Bruce nor I had ever been there to eat, so we really didn't know what to expect.

The meal is served Threshers Style (family style). It included broasted chicken, roast beef, beef and noodles, bread, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, stuffing, slaw, bean soup and choice of pie for dessert.

We all nearly fell into a food coma before leaving the table.



After lunch, we strolled through the gift shop.

Here we're having fun playing with the Amish hats and bonnets.



































The old stove in the General Store brought back memories for Iris. She showed us where you load in the firewood and the hatch at the top that kept food warm while the rest of the meal was still cooking.







Iris enjoyed seeing the Iris' in bloom near the Amish Acres Big Round Barn.

Bruce tried to figure out how I got the hook on the ring in this Amish Ring Game -- on my first try.
