Beach Pics...i think it works!
Totally with you on the PA Dutch cuisine. What few green vegetables were served at my Mom's house were always served in butter, sometimes browned butter. Lots of fat(lard, not vegetable oil), lots of butter, lots of dough, lots of meat, lots of potatoes and always a dessert.
Thanks for the pics and thank goodness the worst of the cold weather has passed for now.

My cousin said she didn't know the difference between marigin and butter until she got married.
She thought the terms were interchangable and didn't know that there was something so delious as real butter made from real cream.
On really special occasions, the green beans at my house would be drowned in a melted cheese-like substance, generic Veelveta I suspect!
Cute pictures---nice first trip for Emma!
The diet in Iowa bears a strong resemblance to the PA Dutch. At our State Fair, one of the main attractions is sculptures of celebrities and politicians made from butter (we had a nice, larger-than-life "butter version" of Barack Obama this year), so that might give some insight into our local diet.

Sorry PA Girl,
In our house the term butter applied to anything that looked like butter (stick form) and smelled like butter. It was margarine to be certain!
Wow, cheese-like substance. That would have been haute cuisine in our house but if we had ventured that far it most definitely would have been velveeta.

Funny...my mom never bought Velveeta. Then I got a recipe a few years ago that called for it. I searched and searched in the refrigerated section of the market and couldn't find it. Finally I found it on the cracker aisle! I wonder what Velveeta is really made from if it doesn't required refrigeration? Eewwww!
