Intercourse Heritage Festival, Lancaster Pennsylvania: Part 3. With a recipe from Jean.

 
The mini car of buggies
Amish teens just having a little fun
Amish girls seem to be  looking in amazement
Why did that ball have to go in on my watch!
Well if no one else is going in, it looks like I'm it!
I knew i smell food
Rooting  for their favorite volley ball player
Hey you knew i had to slip-in at least one car!
Notice the bumper sticker
These Amish teens were pretty good, and seemed to just play for hours.


                                          
 Jeans homemade  Apple Dumplings
2 Cups self-rising flour
1/2 Cup apple juice
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 Cup diced apples
2 (46 fluid oz) cans apple juice
1 Tablespoon Cornstarch
In a medium bowl combine flour, 1/2 cup apple juice and cinnamon, stirring until smooth.  Stir in diced apple. Pour all the apple juice into a 4-quart pot with a tight fitting lid.  Bring to a boil over medium heat.  Drop diced apple mixture by soup spoonfuls into boiling juice.  Cover and let boil 20 minutes.  Do not remove lid during cooking.  After 20 minutes, remove dumplings from pan, set aside.  Stir cornstarch into remaining apple juice in pot and cook until thickened.  Serve over dumplings. (May put ice cream, milk or cream on top).  Makes 8 dumplings. Enjoy. Jean
