New Year & New Expectations; that’s what this post should be called. The Delaware Beaches are becoming more popular every year. The attraction of low property taxes, along with the amenities make the beaches a year-round playground. Tax free shopping, mild winters, beautiful scenery…the towns have been crowded during the week-ends. This is our Second Season and a few quieter months is the perfect time, for us that live here year-round, to truly embrace the beaches.
With that in mind, I want to mention some of my Delaware advertisers, who have been in the area for so many years. I can recommend them all fully because I use them.

Back in 2009 when I started this blog, the concept was “word of mouth”. Finding those unique places that make our beaches such a wonderful place to live. I wanted to pass the word around. Believe me, I know I am lucky to live in the coastal area of the Delaware Beaches, and I do not take it for granted.
The other day my husband mentioned that he had read about a dairy farm in Rehoboth. They also had produce and on and on he went. It was on the way to the Glades, he said. Okay, I had not been on that road for years. It is the type of road that is mostly traveled by the people that live in that vicinity.
I found the farm, and the storefront. It look like someone was there. Then, I met Nelson. I introduced myself; the store was opening at 11 a.m. In our brief conversation he said that these are hard times for dairy farmers. That the Euro having problems have made companies in Europe trying to market powder milk to be reconsituted, here in the U.S. What? That’s crazy, I thought. His mother would be there at 11 a.m., Nelson said. He, on the other hand, would probably be out back playing with the cows. Could not wait to get back at 11 a.m.
Rehoboth Dairy, LLC is located at Rustic Acres Farm, at 37217 Rustic Acres Ln. in Rehoboth Beach. Tel. 302-226-2571. Earl’s 302-245-8308 and Nelson’s 302-245-8310. If you are going north after just leaving Rehoboth Beach, on Rt. 1 (Coastal Highway), turn right on Hollands Glade Rd., right after Tomato Sunshine. If you are coming south on Coastal Highway (Rt. 1) then, make a U turn at the intersection of Shuttle Rd. and Rt. 1 in order to get to Hollands Glade Rd. On Hollands Glade Rd., continue driving inland and you will see the farm on the left and the store just by the road.
There were people already there when I arrived. Immediately, I met Earl and Mary Ann, who along with their sons work the farm.
A few customers were checking out already with a box full of lettuce, eggs, milk, and butter. Cash and check are accepted. No credit cards.
Earl and I started talking; I think he could outtalk me by a lot, if there is such a thing. His good friends were Amish from Dover, Delaware. They built the store. Comfortable in its simplicity. During the summer months you are going to find all kinds of local produce.
This is a dairy farm. The milk? Well, it is as fresh as you are ever going to get any milk. The cows are in the back. They get milked in the updated building that dates prior to the Civil War. The milk is brought to the back of the shop where it is pasteurized. Rehoboth Dairy follows all State regulations. It takes them 8 hours to produce 100 gallons of milk.
 
They have available, whole milk, 2%, 1 1/2 %, and cream. The milk is in glass bottles; 1/2 gallons and quarts. A deposit is required for the glass bottles. Bring the bottles back for your deposit to be refunded. You’ll be back for sure.
The cream goes to the top and just like in the old days, it separates. Shake it a bit and you will get one delicious tasting glass of milk. Milk in its purest form is as near to being a perfect food as one can find. It is a complex and complete supply of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antibodies, essential fatty acids and carbs.
Only a handful of dairy farms remain in the State of Delaware. The cost of carrying these farms is incredible. Earl had to sell everything some years ago when it got to be too much with 200 cows. He has now about 70 and is trying to keep it going. He is a farmer at heart and speaks of work with passion and delight. He also said that farmers buy retail and sale wholesale.
 
Pasteurization of raw milk is required by law. This process began as a result of bacteria that could contaminate the milk after the milk left the cow. The milk from Rehoboth Dairy is pasteurized with milk from their cows, in the family century farm. These cows are grass fed with no artificial hormones or antibiotics.
 
No homogenization here. Homogenization forces the milk, by extreme pressure, through tiny holes which break up the normally large fat molecules into tiny ones. This unnatural fat is easily absorbed into the blood stream. In milk that has not been homogenized, the large fat molecules, are normally passed through the digestive track, unabsorbed. A lot of health problems are attributed to homogenization.
Through small cooperatives, Earl and Mary Ann buy other staples for their store. Butter, is made by the Amish. Of course, I had to get it. It is so good. The eggs are free range and a variety of sizes, as well.
Honey from Lanes Pure Honey from Dover, Delaware. Comb and all.
A freezer was in the middle of the store filled with lima beans and meats and pork products. Filet, roasts, sausage, hamburger patties, scrapple, pork chops. Earl and Mary Ann can tell you the content of everything they sell. I told Earl he would get a scrapple review for sure.
The pork comes from pigs raised on another farm, but owned by Earl. And the beef is from their steers which are raised on their farm, again, grass fed beef with no antibiotics and no hormones. Haas Family Butcher Shop in Dover takes care of the preparation of their meat and pork products.
Besides milk, butter, eggs, and honey, I bought a pork loin roast, filet and scrapple.
You can find in the store Amish baked goods, as well.
I took off with Earl on his truck to check the cows out back. They were all eating; I think that’s what cows do all the time, anyway. The cows you will find at Rustic Acres Farm are Holsteins and Jerseys.
Holstein is the world’s highest production dairy animal, with distinctive markings. Some are mostly black to mostly white, half and half, or red and white.
Trivia: Pauline Wayne was a famous Holstein that was the Presidential Pet of the 27th President of the U.S., William Howard Taft. It lived and grazed on the White House and provided for their milk. It was the last Presidential Pet Cow.
Jerseys are a small breed of dairy cattle, originally bred in the Channel Island of Jersey. It has high butterfat content in its milk and a “genial” disposition; curious and gentle.
Trivia: Elsie the Cow was the famous mascot of Borden, Inc. in the U.S.
 
I asked Earl if they were dumb. He said that a cow remembers everything that has been done to it. As we walked he touched them here or there, behind their ears. It was like they recognized him. One just got close to me and tried to grab my pocket. I had a treat from my dog, Addy, there. Slobbered all over the bottom of my coat.
Earl said that cows are creatures of habit and they follow a strong pecking order. It is a whole process to get them used to one another.
The calfs had to be weaned. They were so cute, coming out of their huts, thinking you had a bottle for them.
From there they go with just one other cow to a different pen. Then to a bigger space with a few more and on and on it goes until they are ready to be all together.
They all have shelter in the winter; a roof over their heads.
As I was walking with Earl I asked him if he gave tours. He said he did not because he did not want germs and contamination in his farm. I felt lucky that he took me to see it. All I could think of was that you really had to love it; it is really so much work.
A resurgence of wanting better foods; away from over processed foods, I am hoping that give these farmers the opportunity to stay in business.
I read food labels all the time. Have to since there are food allergies and health issues in my household. It is just incredible to read some of the ingredients, dies and preservatives in the simplest of foods.
I really enjoyed talking to the Warrens. A plan for the not too distant future is homemade ice cream. I can’t wait!!!
Note: I had to get some info. from Wikipedia….

 Rehoboth Beach Enjoying your long week-end? You have to admit that even though it was a bit chilly; it still has been one beautiful day. Looking to have breakfast or brunch in Rehoboth on Sunday? Then, check my list because there are plenty of our local restaurants that serve one or another, or both.
Breakfast vs Brunch? I really don’t have a preference. I am not too much of a breakfast person; a bold cup of coffee is what I crave in the a.m. Breakfast gives you fuel to endure the day, though. Brunch is a complete different animal. It is a meal between or instead of breakfast or lunch.
A typical brunch is between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.; late morning. I think brunch is all about how leisure you can be. Socializing and indulgence come to mind.
This is the Second Season in Rehoboth Beach. Some restaurants have taken a well deserved rest; but the following are open and ready to make you feel at home.

Once I started thinking about them, coffee in hand, out the door I went to find the perfect doughnut.
I found it, but I knew they were there all along; hot cake doughnuts, made to order while you wait.
The Fractured Prune originally started in Ocean City, Maryland, back in the 70’s. The Fractured Prune in Rehoboth Beach is a franchise. Jody and Diane Smith are the owners and operators of this popular doughnut shoppe. And, that is one of the secrets of a successful doughnut shop; the owners work the shoppe and make sure that perfect, hot, crispy doughnut comes out of the fryer just the right way.
You cannot miss The Fractured Prune. The building has bold colors and a catchy sign. It is located at 20214 Coastal Highway, Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. Tel. 302-227-0747. Website? www.fracturedprune.com. Even though it is a franchise, The Fractured Prune is independently owned and operated.
The dough is homemade, as well as all the glazes and toppings. You create the doughnut and they will make it for you.
I found the doughnut to be the perfect size. When you bite into it, it is crispy; the cake inside melts in your mouth. I was telling Diane doughnut shoppes are happy places; people don’t even mind the wait.
Diane and Jody invited me to make some of the doughnuts. So there I was waiting for them to go into the fryer, then flip, and finally coming out. Then, glazes and toppings.
From right to left these were the doughnuts “we” made: Carnival, French Toast, Smores, Strawberry Cake, Banana Nut Bread and Apple Pie.
Believe me, the doughnuts are good on their own, without any glazes. The flavor and texture are superb. Diane says she puts cheese, at times, on hers.
The secret is that the doughnuts are hot and out of the fryer. The glazes and toppings are light. The Fractured Prune also has one good cup of coffee, as well.
Jody gave me the Sand Doughnut and I would go back for this one every day. It had a light honey glaze with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. I didn’t even feel guilty.
A popular dessert item is the “Hole in One”. This is a hot doughnut of your choice topped with one scoop of vanilla or chocolate ice cream.
The Fractured Prune also has bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Besides coffee, they also serve orange juice, milk, frozen smoothies, and other cold beverages.
The shoppe is fun, bright; perfect for birthday parties, and groups. Call them if you would like to set something up.
Their winter hours are week-ends. Another holiday week-end starts tomorrow, Friday. They will be open.
Jody and Diane are a husband and wife team, making beautiful doughnuts in Rehoboth Beach. Really, they are….talk to you later.

 Best Table on the Beach...Venus in Dewey Winter is the perfect opportunity to learn to cook. Cooking is not hard…don’t rush it…savour it.

I am never at a loss of words, but tonight nature left me speechless….
The Delmarva Peninsula is occupied by most of Delaware and portions of Maryland and Virginia. It is almost 180 by 60 miles. It is also bordered by the Chesapeake Bay on the West, and on the East, by the Delaware River, Delaware Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.
It is basically a year-round resort with a quieter second season. January and February are probably the most subdued months and even though in the past couple of years we have gotten a fair amount of snow, so far, and I hope I am not speaking too soon, it has just been a most beautiful time of the year. So many visitors enjoying what this area is best known for; the beaches, restaurants, shops, the outdoors, and that relaxed atmosphere we all look forward to when we get away from our daily routines.
I had to drive from Rehoboth to the Salisbury airport. It is a convenient regional airport about 1 hour away. It was funny because it was mid afternoon and I mentioned to my son how beautiful the area looked. He nodded but that was it. I kept asking; don’t you love the marshes, and the bay and such wide open spaces? He agreed but not with the same excitement I was experiencing.
Driving back to Rehoboth I started noticing how pretty the sunset was going to be. It was now about 5 p.m. I drove to Rehoboth on Coastal Highway and was checking out our soon to open new Indian River Inlet Bridge when I noticed the Moon. Turned back and went on the beach and the pictures tell the time of the day; still light with the moon out and then the changes until I reached Rehoboth. I was totally speechless and in love with nature and the whole scenery.
Coastal Highway is a great beach road and a most scenic one; Rehoboth Bay on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other.
I was not the only one thinking the same thing. I saw people stopping and getting their cameras out. A young woman did just that; we both were taking pictures of Silver Lake in Rehoboth Beach.
Believe it or not I was on my way to Giant. I wanted to make chicken soup. That had to wait; stopping to enjoy the views was a priority.
If you were at the Beaches tonight I am sure you saw the same thing…..just priceless…

 Silver Lake, Rehoboth Beach...Chilly day!!
It was too cold this a.m. to do anything else so my friend Trish and I decided that it was time catch up. She is snowbirding this week-end and it was the perfect morning to get together. We chose The Point Coffee House and Bake Shoppe. I had just written a post and thought that it was time to try it out. It is located at the “point” where Rt. 1 meets 1A, at the entrance of Rehoboth Ave.
Boy was I wrong when thinking everyone had gone home we would have the place to ourselves. It was crowded. It is comfortable, cozy and Tom is just so friendly, as well as the rest of their staff.
Trish and I were good. We split our orders and kept within the confinements of New Year’s resolutions, I think.
Our breakfast was delicious…the pictures do not lie.
 
But, let’s get down to what’s going on in Rehoboth Beach…
If you are trying to unwind from the hectic holiday schedule you might want to head out tonight to the Movies at Midway at 7 p.m. The Rehoboth Film Society is featuring Karen Cries On The Bus.

Rehoboth Beach Museum is Searching for World War II Artifacts
The Museum will be hosting an exhibit that will illustrate the day-to-day life of citizens during WWII. It is looking only for items of local significance and would like to invite residents to share their family history during this time. The exhibit is scheduled to open in May 2012.
Rehoboth Beach Museum plans to recall how the lives of those who fought in the war, as well as those they had to leave at home in Rehoboth Beach were changed forever. The goal is to bring to light and life how residents of Rehoboth Beach were touched by this war; stories told, cherished objects, and visual history.
Already the museum has received photographs that illustrate a group of likely members of the Civil Air Patrol, proudly standing by their planes. Another important piece of memorabilia in the collection is a WWII rationing coupon booklet.
Nancy Alexander, the Director of the Rehoboth Beach Museum stated “This exhibit is to bring honor to those who fought in the war. Also, to remember those families who gave up some of the things they loved. Our area played a major role in the outcome of WWII and it is important to us that we share this with others”.
