Philadelphia - It's Amish Time!

Philadelphia! Got to head up and check out Paul's hometown for Christmas. I guess you could call it the "Philadelphia: I Ain't Afraid of No Carbs" tour as we grabbed delicious food left and right. From farmer's markets, Italian markets to his Aunt Grace's kitchen, it was everywhere and it was good. REAL GOOD.

First day in and we visited Booth's Corner. An indoor farmers market that has lots of homemade Amish goodies. One side is homemade pastries, cheese, meats from local Amish farms and the other side is your general American random garage sale crap. Quite the dichotomy and so much fun.

Awesome mural of a bad-ass Philly mayor.

Laura and Paul post Mutter Museum finished with brains and ready for bread.

Sarcone's Bakery and some damn good pizza. The ladies who worked the counter kept calling everyone, Honey. "What else you want, Honey?"

The bread we picked up was probably the best bread I've ever eaten and as I held the bag while eating my pizza, it kept me warm.

Pondering the meaning of Christmas in the hoagie waiting room. Either that, or it's the beginning stages of a bread coma.

A Very Merry Philadelphia Christmas
