Fall Translates Into Covered Bridge Festival Time

It's hard to believe that we are experiencing the typical signs of Fall - cooler temperatures, our leaves changing to crimson reds, bright yellows and brilliant oranges.  It won't be long before the Fall rains and winds bring the leaves down.  But in the meantime, we are enjoying them while they last.  The girls and I have been out walking daily down our road and through the covered bridge - taking in all that Fall has to offer.  It is our favorite time of the year.

And as Fall will have it, our family has been in discussion as to what we are going to do for this year's Covered Bridge Festival - the weekend of October 12-13.  We are excited to offer two different cheesecake flavors we've not had at the Festival before as well as our mainstay signature flavor.  They are going to be:
Salted Caramel Spiced Pumpkin
South Denmark Bridge Mud
Vanilla Bean

Slices are still $3 a slice and I will have a few whole cheesecakes available also. We will be selling cups of our famous Stuffed Pepper Soup (made with our grass-fed beef and homegrown peppers) - back by popular demand.  As well as adding a few different items to our farm stand - these items will highlight our talents in crocheting, counted cross stitch and quilting - o.k., the talents of the girls and I.  (I haven't gotten Eric or the boys to sit down and do any of that just yet but there is still hope that we might be able to get them to try sometime.)

We will also be set up in our driveway instead of being down by our fence on the Bridge Road.  This just makes it easier on everyone in regards to set-up, re-stocking and safety.

Come on out and see us and enjoy a "Piece of Something Extraordinary".

All proceeds are being placed into a medical savings account for our youngest son, Stuart (age 15).  Once our funding goal has been attained, it will be used to purchase a bed that will support his ever increasing musculoskeletal needs.

Simply a Slice of Something Extraordinary!
