The food (they make pies, don't they?), the furniture...what else is there?

No. I don't like any of it.

Nice quilts. If you live in Amish country, basically any kind of carpentry. Kraft-Maid is the better Home Depot cabinet brand because their workers are Amish carpenters in Ohio.

When I was a kid in the 90s my mother had Amish kitsch everywhere. Fake ceramic pies setting around, faceless Amish dolls, metal buggy silhouettes on the wall, prints of Amish children holding hands...

A part time Amish country resident. Their carpentry. Always in demand - you just have to get someone to drive them to your property to do the work. Some of their furniture is nice - and well made.

The Amish are famous for dog breeding in abhorrent conditions. They are vile.

Love the food, It's the ultimate fat whore feast. We went to a family style dinner in an Amish barn, and the chicken and noodles were to die for. In fact, everything was.

I have some beautiful oval nesting boxes, but I think they’re Shaker. They are so classic, I think they’d fit in with almost any decor.
I had a cookbook that was farmhouse recipes. The author got recipes from farmer people from all regions of the US. The Amish recipes are my factories. There’s a sort of Boston Cream Pie recipe; switchel, which is a fresh ginger and apple cider vinegar beverage; chicken and dumpling. And whoopie pies that are flatter and moister than Maine ones.

There was an Amish boot rage back in the 90's? Early 2000's? You would have to trace the outline of your foot, mail it, then they would build the boot around the tracing.

Vanity is a sin.
Lived in Lancaster for six months in 1990. Got quite an education on the Amish and their ways.
