amish pyramid scheme?


 My First Blog Post - want some bread?????
Back to Full Blog  

I just made some Amish Friendship Bread. My dil, who is a wonderful baker/cook gave me the directions and a bag of starter. I was flattered. She knows I will bake more than cook and even this is a major event. Anyway, I have it baking in the oven, now.

I think it is a pyramid scheme by the Amish. A wonderful group of people who never hurt anyone. Kind, and fantastic bakers. Anyone living here in the state of OH or PA will attest that to go to an Amish restaurant is nirvana. The bakery alone is heavenly.

I now have 4 bags of starter (a requirement by the Amish Friendship Bread people); meaning I must find at least 3 more people to be friends with. I do not care if they bake or not. A friend will always be there for you. So I know they will bake this bread and then they will be required to have 4 bags of starter, and so on and so on.

so 4 times 4 times 4 times infinity. You should be able to find Amish friendship bread at your door everyday. It is into the billions by now. I envision people running to your side door and leaving the bag of starter and how to make the bread. And that you should copy the instructions and pass it on. I hope you are close to an Office Max or have access to a printer. You must do this procedure every 10 days

Now we are friends. It will not be hard for you to find starter. Look under the porches and into the bushes everywhere in Amish country or OH or PA.

By the way my cat, who is on YouTube, wants you to know you can view her by looking for 'Lily the Singing Cat' by dadarkmcse......He will be the next one to be making Amish Pyramid Bread!

My dear, you may be in serious trouble and I fear for your future.
When the Elders find you are using a computer you will forced to do
penance. You may be required to bake enough bread each day to feed the
Mormon Tabernacle Choir for the rest of your natural life. And I certainly hope you are not baking this bread in an electric oven..Oh my gosh..can't think what they may do to you.

I actually ate some of my bread. Very tasty!...this bread lets you put pudding (2 small packages of vanilla or chocolate or both!); lots of sugar and cinnamon. cinnamon is very good for you, (check the new health updates) At my age (I think young though) I just throw in the amounts, I do measure the flour and sugar; but things like cinnamon and vanilla and baking soda and powder, I just 'eye' ingreadients; You can also use half oil and half applesauce.....anyway. It was amazingly good! Just way too much work and the ten days you have the bag (you better date the bag when you make your 4 bags) you can watch it grow, then you smash it back to submission, same o same o till the 5th day when you add more sugar, flour and egg! (egg! leaving the egg out in a bag of flour and sugar scares me; aren't you supposed to refridgerate eggs? I guess maybe the Amish do not. When I was very little, easter eggs actually were left out all night!!!!! cooked of course, but we never thought you had to put them in the fridge....and of course, in my early fifties, I am still alive!, so, perhaps we should re-think the egg thing in the fridge; but you cook the bread, perhaps all is forgiven then? if you leave out unrefridgerated bread batter for 10 days and egg is in the batter; I guess cooking the bread in the end justifies a damn good tasty Amish friendship bread!!!
