    Saturday's Amish Market Trip

    Saturday we had a meeting to go to, and we decided to ride with friends, which saved us both a little on gas, but on the way home we stopped into the Amish Market in Cockeysville, and even though we weren't out of our unrefined sugar yet, I went ahead and stocked back up.  This is what we ended up with (+ some soft pretzels, but that's another story, and budget)...
    3 bags Unrefined Sugar (18.8 lbs) = $24.26 ($1.29/lb)
    1-6 pk Sticky Buns $4.95
