Pennsylvania is one of our favorite spots to visit on a long weekend like Memorial Day. It's green, there's lots of beautiful produce to buy, enormous buffets of farm-style cooking to devour, antiques to peruse, furniture to commission and friends to see.This is our very favorite place to order furniture, C&S Rustic Furniture, on Route 897. It's a family business, and the Amish guys, as we call them, will make any wooden piece that we dream up. J. is in the market for a new desk, and this fall we have our sights on a kitchen renovation, meaning that we will need lots of wooden cabinets. These days, they are too busy picking strawberries, zucchini and tomatoes to do much carpentry, so we'll have to wait for our pieces.
After a long weekend of eating, shopping, and hanging out by the swimming pool we head back to Brooklyn...only to come to a dead stop in traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike. I forget how bad traffic is every year, and every year I say "I'm never going to do that again!" But I do.
