There was ice on the rear view camera on the truck so it looked sorta haunted

Uhm… a piece of metal pipe picking hot air from the muffler and blowing it over the camera?
There was a lot of ice. We ended up slipping around a bit.

They had purple sweet potatoes which I absolutely had to get some of. We will have them for dinner
They had Sriracha which I had to ask them about, the Amish guy said they had a case donated to them and and my father asked if any Amish actually eat it. He said they do sometimes and that it makes his tongue tingle and gives him hiccups but that it's good on some stuff.

When he rung us up I was impressed by the use of a mechanical calculator with a paper recipt that printed the calculation as it did it. He explained that they are actually imported from germany and that he payed 400$ for this one but that it's indestructible and lasts a life time. I asked what happens if it breaks and he said there is a local Amish man who fixes them.

I had to get a glazed donut and it was incredibly good.
