"I&amp;#x27;ll admit it: I ran to tell my whole family the news yesterday when I saw that Lady Gaga was looking at a house in the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country. My dad&amp;#x27;s question was: who is Lady Gaga? But I know what your question is: what the heck is Pennsylvania Dutch Country?The Pennsylvania Dutch (and I&amp;#x27;ve got a little in me, so what you&amp;#x27;re reading is legit) are Americans of German descent (the &amp;quot;Dutch&amp;quot; means nothing) who settled in southeastern Pennsylvania. They include, but aren&amp;#x27;t limited to, the Amish. There&amp;#x27;s your history lesson--now let&amp;#x27;s get to the good stuff, aka why Gaga would absolutely love living in Lancaster, Pa. 5. They&amp;#x27;ve got the perfect setting for her next video: the 80s-amazing theme park Dutch Wonderland. Is that a castle manned by a bear? Why, yes, it is! There&amp;#x27;s also a dragon lagoon and a light show you can watch while dangling from an overhead cable car. 4. The Amish don&amp;#x27;t use mirrors--and doesn&amp;#x27;t a few months of no-reflection reflection seem like a classic Gaga stunt? 3. Speaking of stunts: we&amp;#x27;d love to see the frenzy that would ensue if Gaga announced that for the next year, her only appearances would be at the old-school Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre in Lancaster. As Maria in &amp;quot;The Sound of Music.&amp;quot; 2. People say some crazy things &amp;quot;up home.&amp;quot; There&amp;#x27;s plenty of kitschy old slang to go around. If you&amp;#x27;re going to have cake later, you might say: &amp;quot;There&amp;#x27;s cake back yet.&amp;quot; Or, similarly, if your meat dress isn&amp;#x27;t finished yet, &amp;quot;there&amp;#x27;s meat dress back yet.&amp;quot; 1. And speaking of food... it&amp;#x27;s unbeatable. Pierogies, chicken pot pie, dumplings galore--the theme here is carbs, people. If Gaga visits the legendary Shady Maple Smorgasbord, she&amp;#x27;ll need to call the egg taxi patrol to carry her out afterwards. Bonus: you eat free on your birthday. Think Gaga&amp;#x27;ll really spring for a home in central PA? What other crazy USA spots would you love to see her settle in?
