Icy hot

Went for ice cream and ended up going to Half Pint in #hanover pa. All home made ice cream and a locally owned company. www.halfpintcreamery.com Trish Motter who graduated high school locally opened in Hanover after her short stent in college. Sweet move on her part. The ice cream is really good and you all know how I like to support a local business. Visit her website and see for yourself all the flavors and you decide. Chain ice cream or support local. Will I go again. Sure will. I had the Sweet Heat. Chocolate ice cream with red pepper and cyan pepper. Slow burn but the milk takes care of it. God bless, thanks for reading and see you at the ice cream counter. 

Firehouse chicken

This is not a long blog but well worth the read.  Ever so often the firehouse up the street has a chicken or beef roast.  Today was that day.  Hundreds of chickens on the grill along with potatoes grilling and making the town smell amazing.  Anyone who loves grilled chicken and passed by had to stop. The supply was first come first serve so glad I was early.  By 11am they were done cooking and over half of them were sold.  A dinner for two was $18.  It consisted of one full chicken, two baked potatoes, two rolls and two apple sauces.  I had a single order because Mrs. Ewensstomach was not only feeling sick she also does not eat chicken.  I had only half of mine for lunch and will save the other half for after church tonight.  So for a single person I paid $8.50 and made two meals out of it.  Cant beat that for home grilled chicken and potatoes.  God bless, thanks for reading and support your local fire department and business.  

How cheese makes a sandwich

Yesterday I made a egg and cheese sandwich.  Yeah it does not sound so good or special but it was.  One of my coworkers told me about a cheese she had.  She and her husband loved it and said I needed to try it as soon as I could.  So on the way home I ran into Wegmans and found said cheese.  It did not look like anything special but that was deceiving.  The cheese is called Steakhouse onion and it is a cheddar cheese. It has the amazing smell of onion and the taste of eating a steak sub.  I wanted to wait till I got home to try it but that only lasted to the first stoplight.  Right then and there I said to myself "Self.  Tomorrow you are going to make yourself and egg sandwich with your fresh eggs and use this cheese.  You will not be sorry". Glad I listened because it turned out to be a great sandwich.  I can see using this cheese on a burger or melted over nachos.  The onion and steak flavor work great and will catch you by surprise.  So next time you go out and have a chance pick up some.  You will not be sorry.  God bless, thanks for reading and eat more cheese.
