Dover/West York: April 2008 Archives

It's spring, ladies and gentlemen, and that means it's time for York Countians to start making their weekly or more-than-weekly pilgrimages to their favorite local ice-cream parlors, right?

One of my favorite's, Mack's on Route 74 in Dover Township, is open all year, but somehow I just can't get in the mood for ice cream till it gets warm. So Wednesday night, the husband and I took advantage of the amazing weather to head out and get him some dinner and me some Oreo-cookie-and-milk-in-a-cone.

That's hubby Chris at right, holding my small Oreo cookie cone. Small! For $2.50, I got what must have been three full scoops. It was amazing.

He was more in a dinner mood. And while I recommended the famous Mack's chicken strips, he had another idea.

If you do, you'd be wilkommen to a Pennsylvania Dutch dialect class series for beginners that starts Saturday, April 12, and continues April 26 and May 3, 10 and 24 at Providence Place on Fox Run Road in Dover Township.

If you're above the beginner level, the organizers - the Pennsylvania Dutch Heritage Group - will make more advanced study materials available.

The class is limited to 35 people, so call soon. Details are available at 266-2910. It should be a wunderbar gut time.
