Re: What I saw today...

Love it.  We actually have a PA Dutch bakery here in town and they are so
cute and nice to have around.  Plus the fact that you can buy all kinds of
foodstuffs w/ NO preservatives there.  I truly love that.  I can't afford
the great furniture they make (next door to the bakery) but when I can - one
of those chairs is going on the porch!
