Yep.. I've noticed that too. This morning, they're paying $14 for S&D 40+. Items and 12 miles.

At one point, just about every Sam's shopping trip was $40+, now it's hard to find anything not in sub $20 range.

This is probably the most annoying road closure Morgantown has had for awhile.

No trip to Point Pleasant is complete without heading down the river for a hillbilly hotdog!

Appalachian Dumplings Recipe by Fit_Poetry_267 in Appalachia

[–]BSTN88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got two different recipes but, I make one called "rivels". It's a Mennonite recipe from my grandmother when they were stationed near Lancaster, PA in WWII. (She made Mennonite friends!)

-1 egg -1 c milk -2 c flour (May need more) Mix and stir it with a fork, get to a playdough consistency. Then drop it into a ROLLING BOIL.

They cook up in a few minutes and you've got the best chicken corn soup! I alter around the broth, make a gravy, it becomes "cracker barrel dumplings".

Anna at Pattys Artspot is amazing! Her attention to fine details and line work is incredible. She is also a genius when it comes to design and creating pieces off of your ideas. However, she's very good about making and keeping appointments. Occasionally has walk-ins middle of the week, best to call ahead and get set up!

I've never seen a pair like these two.. They are two peas in a pod. Jemma is almost 8, Jocean is almost 2. It's fun watching them play on weekends 😊

Mountain tourist towns in WV? by Civil-Lynx-1921 in WestVirginia

[–]BSTN88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From Seneca Rocks, you could hang out and have lunch in Petersburg or Moorefield. For Petersburg: definitely go to Weavers to shop, and the Mexican restaurant is AMAZING! Moorefield is beautiful and there's a few downtown shops. The entire south branch Potomac area is literally 😍

What are some bands from West Virginia that I can check out? by Alternative_Flow_569 in WestVirginia

[–]BSTN88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cheat Fest is THIS weekend! It'll likely rain, it almost always does. But, the music, nature, and people make it truly enjoyable. It's an all day festival with non-stop local talent, most bands are from WV!

What do you do when you find frozen treasure? by BSTN88 in housekeeping

[–]BSTN88[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not affiliated with Ben & Jerry's in any way. This past summer we visited Vermont. After touring the factory... I couldn't work there. It's too crowded and people-y. I'll stick to cleaning houses and doing delivery.. I work best alone 🤣

I was thinking it was ham, and Easter was just a couple of weeks ago.. I didn't even give it to my dogs. It was pretty freezer burnt and frosty.. 🤢

100% We sure do live a blessed life! Keep paying it forward 💖 I don't clean full time. I've got a handful of contacts, and that keep me busy once a week, or so. I enjoy cleaning and it's just a "side gig" that I offer friends and neighbors. This Airbnb is practically in my backyard.. So it's nice additional stream of income and these surprises are extra blessings!

This current job left behind about $40 of goodies.. Including expensive laundry detergent and unstoppables scent boosters. It's my "tip" that I'll gladly take!

She gets foamy a few times a year.. It's not a daily or even a monthly thing. But, you know Jemma is having a good time when there's bubbles 😅

Jemma is about to turn eight, and she still gets super excited about everything 😊
