This summer I am in the process of re-locating back to the Pittsburgh, PA area and am currently in New Castle, PA. I have enjoyed your blog for a little over a year now and would have enjoyed the appearance at Berean. If the ladies get the opportunity and are still in Lancaster tomorrow they should go to Central Market in Lancaster, PA. I think they would love it!
