Last year, my friend Kayla and I decided to see Punxsutawney Phil for Groundhog Day.
Groundhog Day is celebrated each year on Feb. 2 and centers on a bit of weather folklore: if a groundhog emerges from its burrow and sees its shadow, winter is said to last six more weeks; if it doesn’t, an early spring is predicted. The most famous celebration takes place in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, where “Punxsutawney Phil” has been making his prediction since the late 1800s.
After a very cold and adventurous morning, we found ourselves at Lonnies Restaurant & Bakery.
Lonnie’s Restaurant & Bakery in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania is a no-frills, hometown diner where the bakery side of the building is just as much a draw as the grill.
I grabbed an Italian hoagie from the grab and go cooler, as well as a variety of Groundhog Day themed sweets. I mean, when else can you enjoy a groundhog-shaped cookie?
The sweets were OK - a bit dry, but that may have been because we were there mid-day.
