You may not have heard but this is American Craft Beer Week (ACBW). This week (May 13-19) has been set aside by the Brewers Association as a week to not only celebrate the small craft breweries out there but to also celebrate those who love and support the industry.

My collection of Mother’s Day gifts this year all came before the actual day of Hallmark celebration and tasted and sounded delightful. A few weeks ago we went to see GOAT, a groovy psych-rock band from Sweden that I absolutely love. This past weekend I enjoyed the Sweetest Pint tour in York, PA, where …

Combine this focus with a sincere love of food and you have a woman who adores the luxury of eating out as often as possible. Here are some of my favorite …
Lancaster, PA, is known far and wide as a destination for those interested in learning more about the Amish culture. There is a large and integrated Amish community in Lancaster and they provide many beautiful vegetables, cheeses, meats, and baked goods at local markets.
