T-Shirt Tuesday: “Ally’s”

On a couple of recent trips to our buddy Gordon‘s old farmhouse over in Effingham County GA, Robert and I discovered one of the greatest treasure treats on earth.

Ally’s Bakery in the town of Rincon.

Ally’s pastries are simply beyond delicious.

Probably the best cinnamon rolls we’ve ever had.

And Robert is embarrassingly obsessed with Ally’s artistic cookies.

He and his obsession really get on my nerves. Robert won’t eat (or more important, let me eat) the cookies until these ridiculous “photo sessions” are complete …

Meandering through the cozy shop on one visit, trying to burn off a few calories, I came across these oh-so-very-truthful T-shirts.

And this last one gave me such encouragement:

So if you’re ever around Savannah, drive over to Rincon and Ally’s Bakery.

Tell the delightful Ally (the one with the flour on her fingers or frosting on her nose), Hannah, Marci or any other friendly crew member that Neal and Robert sent you.

You’ll leave so much sweeter than when you arrived.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Passport”

I walked in the kitchen and saw Robert, reminding me that I should post a T-shirt Tuesday!

For several years now, we have participated in Georgia’s Farm Passport program:

“The Farm Passport features over 100 farms included in Georgia Farm Bureau’s Certified Farm Markets program, which was created to help people discover where their food comes from, meet the farm families who grew the food, and create lasting memories as they travel the state.” Farm Bureau, GA

With each visit to a farm, we get our “passport” stamped to go toward prizes, including the T-shirt.

HR and Passport T-shirts from previous years.

T-Shirt Tuesday: “Franklin’s Farm”

For the last few years, Robert and I have taken part in a wonderful program here in our home state of Georgia: Farm Passport.

Over 100 farms are involved, and Passport participants travel to as many as they like: “Passport travelers will discover where their food comes from, meet the people who grow it and see firsthand how diverse agriculture is across the state! With each visit, travelers can get stamps in their passports, and they can earn prizes. The love of exploring Georgia, supporting local farms and eating fresh is lived out when traveling with this passport.” Gfb.ag

Today we visited our first farm for 2026 (the program just started for the year): Franklin’s Farm in Statesboro GA. This farm is primarily known for their wonderful satsuma mandarins.

I love their Georgia fruits and vegetables T-shirt.
