Sally Visits the King Arthur Flour Bakery and Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Factory in Vermont!

While on her epic New England adventure with her new friends Makana and Stephen, Sally was able to join the family to visit some interesting landmarks in Vermont.

The first stop: The King Arthur Flour Bakery and Baking Education Center!

Sally: "Let me in! Let me in!"

I think she is in bread heaven.

Sally's going to learn all about bread making... 

I hope she shares her knowledge with me, the Bread Making Dunce.*

*This is a self-given title. But true none the less.

All hail the princesses of flour: Makana and Sally

If Sally didn't think that trip could be topped... she was also going to get to visit the Ben & Jerry Ice Cream Factory!! 

Sally wantee.

Sally has her ticket and is ready to experience the magic!

Bold chunks. Rich swirls. 

OMNOMNOMNOMNOM.

 Every tour should end with a scoop of delicious ice cream. Period.

 Someday, perhaps Makana and Sally really WILL have their faces on an ice cream pint!

 Makana also had the opportunity to ride a real pony! Stephen and Sally enjoyed watching her.

(Stephen helped hold Sally so she could watch Makana,

 what a great brother.) :)

Stay tuned for more adventures!
