As promised I'm going to post something fun! And for me~that's shopping! My favorite place is this small town called Volant in north eastern Pennsylvania. It's nestled in the country with rolling hills, and I recommend going in the fall to catch the changing of the leaves. During some of the fall festivals you can watch them make homeade apple butter outside in huge kettles. Be sure to pick up a walking map and the houses are numbered so you'll know which ones are stores and private homes. Start off at Volant Mills and you'll enjoy 3 floors of crafts galore! They have a converted schoolhouse and a train for your shopping pleasure filled with goodies to buy. Your senses will be tempted with homeade baked goods, chocolate, spices, & jam. Drive a bit down the road, and you'll come across an Amish family selling homeade bread and cookies by the roadside. If your interested, they'll even take you inside their barn to sell you quilts and crafts. Since your in the area, your shopping experience will not be complete until you stop by at Sugar Creek also, and shop, shop, shop!!! You must dedicate a whole day for this excursion, and believe me, you won't be disappointed!!!

Shop Volant!
