Trivia question - Where is the world's largest crayon? The second question (a bit easier if you're looking at the photo) - What color is it?

We took the scenic route from Philadelphia along the Delaware River to John & Judy's in New Jersey. Several detours were included, the result of severe spring flooding along the Delaware - rains we missed on our trip west.

After the exciting visit to see the crayon (the answers are Easton, PA & blue), we stopped for lunch in a wonderful diner. Frank & Rita be warned when you pick her up on Wednesday! Mary's appetite has not diminished. After consuming ALL of a huge veal parmesan sandwich AND the potato chips AND the pickles AND a pint of iced tea, she decided to order the "Sticky Mama" for dessert. In case you're wondering, you take a rather large Philadelphia sticky bun, slice it in half, grill it, put half in a bowl, add 2 BIG scoops of vanilla ice cream, add the other half of the bun (with lots of nuts) to the side, cover ice cream with sticky bun "goo", top with lots of whipped cream and a cherry. Mary licked her bowl clean. Need we say more.
