Flour Mill Bakery in Rossville, Indiana

The Flour Mill Bakery in Rossville, Indiana is in the middle of nowhere. You won’t believe how we managed to find this hidden gem!

Flour Mill Bakery in Rossville, Indiana

On our way to Cutler, Indiana, the Nunemaker Family Circus flew by a small sign that said “Bakery” with an arrow pointing down a random road to nowhere.

We turned around, went down “Bob’s Road” (to steal a line from Twister), made a turn or two, and there it was. In the middle of a bunch of farmland and a scattering of homes, we found the Flour Mill Bakery.

Inside Flour Mill Bakery

I opened the door to a magical place. Bulk food in plain packaging, fresh bakery items lined the walls. The women looked very Amish-like–until one lady answered her ringing cellphone.

While I was taking pictures of this awesome Indiana bakery, Hubs learned that the Flour Mill Bakery is run by German Baptists. The lady had the maiden name of Nunemaker! Small world, eh?

Spices, seasoning, flours, baking things, sprinkles, and CHEESE–they fit a whole lot of bulk goods in a relatively small space.

This was the start of our little Indiana adventure so we only left with a loaf of honey wheat bread, a container of sprinkles, a package of lemon cookies, and a sprinkled donut for the kid.  If we had known we would have brought a cooler and taken home a hunk of Provolone but anyway…

We broke into the cookies in the car even though I don’t think it was even 9 AM our time!  It was so worth it.  You know by now that I love soft cookies and lemon (remember my yummy Lemon Ginger Cookies?) and these were full of lemony goodness with just a blip of lemony icing on the top.

From Black Raspberry Pie to Butterscotch Meringue Pie, even Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, Caramel Apple Pie, and something called Sugar Cream Pie–they’ve got it!

Apparently Sugar Cream Pie is the State Pie of Indiana. How did I not know that?

Seems like little Indiana has a new mission–seek out the elusive Sugar Cream State Pie and find the best!

The Flour Mill Bakery has such a great assortment of goods. Middle of nowhere or not, in the word’s of Ah-nold, I will be back!

Wheatfield, Indiana: Marcella's Pizza

When you find good pizza like at Marcella’s Pizza in Wheatfield, Indiana, you just have to share!

So, let me just say, that no one could have been more surprised than I was when I took a look at Marcella’s Pizza’s menu.

Spinach, Tomato, and Garlic with Alfredo Sauce Pizza, Garlic Shrimp Pizza, and even a Philly Cheesesteak Pizza.

This small Indiana town pizza shop even has deep dish pizza! How ever does a pizzaholic decide? She leaves it up to her hubby and hopes for the best.

We got the Spinach, Tomato, and Garlic with Alfredo Sauce Pizza on a thin crust and ordered a 7” Sausage for the kid. We had to have a side of their famous garlic rolls too.

There was a coloring book and crayons for the kid, though the fun decor of the place kept him entertained for quite some time!

Airplanes, blimps, and I don’t know what all hang from the ceiling. The walls are covered in travel-related items like luggage, chintzy plates, postcards, and posters. Don’t worry–it wasn’t obnoxious like at those big box chain restaurants with the too-loud music.

The kid refused to touch the garlic rolls (he was in quite the mood that day) but they were pretty good.

I scarfed them down and longingly gazed at what hubs hadn’t finished. He wasn’t moved.

Then came the pizza…wowza. It was a thing of beauty. A more sensitive soul may break down in tears after sampling this stuff.

Okay, maybe that’s taking it a bit too far, but I ate an embarrassingly large amount of this pizza. It was just. that. GOOD! Like, craving good, even!

I sampled the kid’s (all in the name of research, I swear!) and it was yummy as well. He definitely enjoyed it, grading it “delicious.”

Oh, and for all you cold pizza lovers out there…the Spinach, Tomato, and Garlic Pizza was still very good after a night in the fridge. Bonus!
