Quick Trip to Shipshewana

 We decided to do a quick trip to Shipshewana while we were still able to travel.  
It was a fun day!  We ate a Jojo's pretzel (that neigher one of us should eat), shopped for lounge wear and slippers for me, bought some fabric (of course) and ate fry pies on the way home! 
 LOL  We did all the things.  
First stop was Jojo's.  
The BEST pretzels!


Gotta take a selfie or it didn't happen, right?


Obligatory horse and buggy photo.


My adorable lounge wear.

My new slippers


We were in the bulk food store and Chris asked me to look at a bag he had in his hands. 
 I SWEAR, it looked like a bag-o-maggots!  
EWWWWWWW. 
 Annnnd now you can't unsee it,  LOL  you're welcome!


These are the fabrics I bought too. 
 Some Essex yard dyed linen and some backgrounds plus the great rainbow low volume fabric.


I found a coat pattern and a marker.  The coat pattern is kind of a crap shoot since there were minimal measurements.  I was thinking that a quilted coat might be fun with this pattern.


I see a theme with this fabric, do you?  
It was a happy accident that they all coordinated.


Yoders had their Christmas and Halloween fabrics on sale and
 a line I have some of but wanted more of. 
 I did not have a list of the ones I have so didn't end up buying any.  
SAD!

Amazing fry pie on the way home!!

Chris.. if that's not a bag of maggots... what are they?? Sounds like you both had a great trip... loved your purchases!!

Don't know what your medical plan will be, but I had a mastectomy two weeks ago, and the best purchase I made beforehand was a couple of flannel shirts - button downs - a size too big. I wear one while washing the other - too cheap to buy more. Good luck on your journey - mine started 6 weeks ago.

Sounds like a lovely day. I haven't had a good fried pie in decades.
