There are other things I love about traveling – and discovering things that I have never seen before, experienced before, or even…..eaten before!
Who knew that Lebanon, PA is famous for BOLOGNA?? The folks in Lebanon are so enamoured with bologna, that they hold an annual Bologna Fest!
I wasn’t going to let the chance to see what the fuss was about pass me by….and we stopped off at a little market on my way out of town so that I could try some myself….YUMMY!
One Happy Quilter!
The pattern for Jared Takes A Wife can be found HERE. And there are many other free patterns found in the free patterns tab at the top of the blog!
Everyone did such a great job…..as always, if you can’t view the slide show for any reason, click the photo below to be taken to the photo album itself.

When we lived in Erie, PA, my favorite things were the Italian delis! I've never found anything else close to it. My husband grew up eating a bologna spread made with ring bologna, but you can't find it in TX. Yes, this Texan married a yankee! LOL

ReplyDeleteIt's always so inspiring to see all the different color combinations that people have chosen - Christmas colors, batiks, homespun, happy scrappy barely controlled chaos - I'm going to have to live to be 150 years old to try all the patterns and all the variations on Bonnie's website!

ReplyDeleteFor a real treat, spread that Lebanon bologna with some softened cream cheese and roll it up. Yum!! I live in Allentown, PA, so can get this stuff any time I want at the Allentown Farmer's Market.
ReplyDeleteOkay, that purple, gold and green just called out my name...really loud. Going to have to look further at that. Yay for the inspiration of other quilters! Lane
