We went up to Amish territory today.

For lunch we had shrimp tacos. <3

We shopped around at several different places and made some good finds.  One thing I found was a couple of short chains that can be used to hang things.

One place we stopped at had strawberries.  :D  There is a strawberry festival later this month that we'd like to catch.

We got ice cream for dessert.  My partner Doug got blackberry and I got brownie explosion, both very good.
 
I bought some flowers, herbs, and vegetable plants.  I forgot to pick up a mixed pack of wave petunias, though, which annoys me because they're a favorite and I've only seen the in single-color packs before.  These were white, lavender, and purple.

On the way home, we stopped at a panderia for pastries.

We also check out a Mexican grocery store, which is excellent.  They have a little botanica in one corner with glass candles and such.  They have several racks of spices.  I found chile pequins, which I didn't even know were commercially available -- they're wild peppers, only about pea size.  So I bought some.

It's been a productive day.

I've had cheese made by Amish farmers that was yummy. I bet they make good ice cream too.
