This would have been just a normal posting of the recipe of the week, but because this blog is only 12 hits away from hitting a total of 200,000 total hits this post now becomes special. So I'm thanking Marilyn, Jean and Martha and the readers especially the ones that have been with me since the very beginning. So thank you again folks for allowing me to hit 200,000, but I really love the way 300,000 sounds so lets make that happen soon,lol. Thank you. Richard
2 recipes that should help maybe cool you off a little, with all of the heat we were having I wanted to post something on the cool side this week. Enjoy folks. Richard
Really nice pictures Richard. I think you will hit that 300000 without any problem. What you provide for us readers is an chance to learn more about a culture we are all wanting to learn more about. I believe it takes us back to a quiet life that we in some ways are longing for in this busy world. So Congratulations on hitting 200000 and thanks to everyone involved in the blog. I know for me my days are blessed every time I get to read something new on here and I am so thankful I found your blog. God Bless Veronica
Thank you Veronica and I kid about hitting that 300,000 mark really, and in truth I dont worry about hitting a particular number of hits. But I greatly appreciate being maybe one of the web sites that certain folks go to, and its all about having fun in the end for me. I have not forgotten about that Amish run bed and breakfast so I will be giving a heads-up on Amish Stories when that's going to get posted. Enjoy the day everyone I'm out of here for now. Richard
Congratulations Richard, from Jean, Martha and myself on hitting 200,000. You have worked really hard and we appreciate all you have done.
Wonderful news, Richard.I love your blog. It brings peace to me, and I love the culture sharing from Jean, Marilyn, and Martha. Thank you.Thank you for the jam recipe. I think that will be on the honey-do list, when it cools down some here in Nebraska, its a little too hot to heat up a kitchen now!Have a wonderful week, everyone.

Welcome Paula and I'm with you on this jam as it sounds pretty tasty, and I didn't want anything with a Temperature this week because of all the heat we were going through. And greetings Lidi Horacia even though I have no idea what your saying in your comment, I hope its good though, and why not right so welcome to you! Richard
You sure know how to make a person hungry for peach jam. Sounds wonderful and I love peaches.
The recipes sound so good!Thank you Richard for visiting my blog and leaving a comment! I lived about an hours drive from the Amish community in Arthur Illinois before I moved here. I visited there many times and enjoyed many meals at their restaurants and shops. I was trying to find your followers list so I could join. I will stop by later and take another look around as your blog is great!
I see new faces since my last comment so welcome folks, and Beth I just went to your web site and left a comment letting you know that my followers list is towards the bottom of Amish Stories. I place that there because I dont have any room for it anywhere else, and those readers are first class regardless of where that list is! Richard
Nice to visit you. Love the barn and the recipes sound delightful for our extreme heat!
I've just moved the Google followers list up higher on the blog after reviewing its location, so something good I think came from your question Beth and I thank you for bring that to my attention. Good night folks and I will see you with a fresh post on Friday. Richard
Great recipe, thanks for sharing..I'm sure you'll met the goal…thanks for the visit to mine..
Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting on my blog today. I am so thrilled to have found your blog and am now following you. I look forward to reading you in the future!Jill
Hi Richard, congratulates! You have done a great job and everyone too. I talked to Mary and she is going to give me a copy of the pictures. I don't know what cold pack is. Like freezers jam? It is so hot here! Hope all is well………..Blessings. Lissa
thanks so much for visiting my blog and now I have found yours! We live about 1 hr away from Amish Country here in Ohio and we go there to visit at least once a year. You have a lovely blog here! Such beautiful photos too!
First of all, I love your blog and have a link to it from mine: http://www.thecountryfarmhome.blogspot.com. I'm getting ingredients together for the jam (that sounds so delicious) and noticed it called for 6 oz of orange jello. Is it truly 6 oz or .6 oz? A package of jello is .3, so do I need 12 of them or 2? I plan to post my jam making, using your recipe, on my blog soon, so I want to get it correct!Thanks,Dru
Richard! Please delete my previous comment! I just realized I was looking at sugar free jello! lol Yes, it takes 2 packages of regular jello. Now, I can make my jam! Sorry for not reading the box correctly!Dru
Hi Farmers and no problem with that other comment which is fine, and when you do make that please let me know how it turned-out. I should really start posting more sugar free recipes, but at least you can substitute most of the sugar for a non-sugar sweetener. Richard
