Remembering L’Espalier

December 30, 2018 Leave a Comment

On New Year’s Eve Boston’s iconic Back Bay restaurant, L’Espalier will close its doors after forty years. My husband casually mentioned this as we were eating dinner tonight much to my utter disappointment as I had hoped that we would return to celebrate our tenth wedding anniversary this summer. Ten years ago this coming August […]

Brunch with Santa at Weekapaug Inn

December 4, 2016 Leave a Comment

This morning we took our kids to Weekapaug Inn for a very special brunch with Santa.  Full disclosure…I am married to the inn keeper…so it would be fair to say I am a little biased.  Even so, this was an amazing experience for our kids and one that they won’t soon forget. This magical brunch […]

May 21, 2016 Leave a Comment

We spent the afternoon in Mystic, Connecticut at the Mystic Aquarium for the second annual Mystic Food Truck Rally.  It was our first time going and we had such fun.  You never know how things will go when you venture out alone with kids at lunchtime.  Mine were particularly patient and well behaved today so […]

Savoy Bookshop and Cafe in Westerly, Rhode Island

March 29, 2016 Leave a Comment

When we moved here a year ago one of the things that we fell in love with was the little downtown area not too far from our new house.  For nearly a year we have carefully watched the progress of the renovation of a gorgeous old building called The Savoy.  With promises to be a […]

Aesthetics of a Package

October 8, 2014 Leave a Comment

Last night we went to an informational meeting on food processing put on by the Franklin County CDC and the Business Growth Center at Springfield Technology Park.  Informative and enjoyable, the lecture discussed the logistics of making small batch food.  While there, some bottles were placed on the table in front of us.  All of […]

Baghdad Bakery West Springfield, Massachusetts

June 11, 2014 Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago we were set up selling our oh so yummy small batch food products at The Alchemy Fair in Holyoke.  To us, the best part of actually bringing our small batch selections out into the community and away from the vagueness of the internet, is meeting the people who buy them.  We […]

Food Trucks Come to Springfield

May 26, 2014 Leave a Comment

My mother is ALWAYS (I mean always) cutting out articles from the local newspaper and sending them over to us in little plastic bags.  We try to read them all… but sometimes they just accumulate.  Yesterday she sent over a bag and I was glad I took the time to sort through it.  If I […]
