  • Failure to Pie: Discussing Christmas at the Amish Bakery
    Dec 4 2024

    This week, the MennoBrarians are back to discuss the latest movie in the Amish Hallmark(esque) Cinematic Universe: Christmas at the Amish Bakery. You can find the movie on Prime, with a free trial of the Up, Faith and Family add-on. The movie centers on Sarah, a young Chicagoan working in cookbook publishing, who is sent home to her Amish family as her boss thinks an Amish cookbook sounds like a unique and exciting publishing opportunity. We chat family recipes, pie making, bad costuming, and much more.

    This episode is the first in our 2 part Christmas series, with Season 7 launching in February!
