Penn Yan? Is that in China?

I'm here in Penn Yan for the weekend at my parents house, enjoying the lovely Fingerlakes and the Easter holiday with family. (Side note: Someone started laughing uncontrollably when I told them I was from the Fingerlakes the other day. Apparently people have heard of it now thanks to the Lawrence Welk sketch on SNL.) I arrived yesterday and did some wine tasting with my parents around the lake- the new Anthony Road Riesling is awesome! Manhattanites should check out the Anthony Road booth at Union Square Greenmarket. Then we went to Seneca Farms for ice cream in the evening. (Haha, I tried to link to their web page, and it seems they don't have one. It's pretty apparent from the crowds there last night that they're not lacking for publicity.) Anyways, if you've been there, you know- and while it might not be the best homemade ice cream in new york...it might be.

Today my grandma will be here and we'll have Easter dinner together. Missing Mary Beth of course, and probably crying over our Easter eggs, wishing she was here :-)
