October 9, 2019 (Family) Road Trip: Mystic, CT and Greenport, Long Island

Sponsored Post: I worked with Cross Sound Ferry, who graciously gifted us round trip travel tickets. As always, all opinions are my own. I had been wanting to take the kids to the Mystic Aquarium all summer, and we finally went last weekend. We couldn’t have asked for better weather all weekend. So we piled […]

December 31, 2018 Afternoon at Chestnut Hill Farm

I love fall festivals – and we spent a fun day at Chestnut Hill Farm in Southborough. The afternoon was filled with tractor rides, great live music, pumpkin carving and painting and of course, lots of good food. The chocolate pie (bottom right) was an exceptional dessert – and I picked it up while the […]

December 13, 2018 The Local

Sometimes I find our options for restaurants in suburbia limited, we do like The Local every once in a while, even if it is a little on the pricier side. I am a fan of the bowls on their menu, my latest craving is the spicy Hong Kong noodles, but without the spice (yup, spice […]

November 27, 2018 Redstone American Grill

We met Leah up in Burlington and grabbed a bite to eat at Redstone American Grill. She had been there for a holiday party and we were curious to see what the regular menu had to offer. They are a scratch kitchen and allergy friendly. We decided to do a lot of appetizers so we […]

November 26, 2018 Oak Barrel Tavern

Everyone was pretty pumped when Oak Barrel Tavern first opened. We went at 5pm and the hostess asked us if we had a reservation…and when we said we didn’t, she proceeded to tell us it would be an hour wait!!! Yikes! It has since died down a bit, and we have been there a few […]

November 23, 2018 Bear in Boots

Every time I am down in Falmouth, I like to try to get to Bear in Boots right on Main Street. They have a scratch kitchen and everything they put out is consistently delicious. We started with the fried cheese (pictured top left): Beer battered Vermont cheddar cheese curds with  dill seed crema. My daughter loves […]

November 21, 2018 Picking Fruit at Tougas Farm

Another place we liked to pick our own fruit this season was Tougas Farm in Northborough. We did strawberries and cherries here this season, but this time of year they do have apple picking available. The first time we went was when the baby was fairly new – so here I am with three kids […]

November 20, 2018 Rail Trail Flatbread Company

Kim and I met out for lunch at Rail Trail Flatbread Co. to try out their Breads and Spreads. Cute little toasts with some seriously tasty toppings. Pick three for $7 – totally great deal if you’re looking for a light lunch. Here are the current options (they have changed the menu a bit since […]

November 14, 2018 Food Truck Festival

Sponsored Post The kids and I have been reading Food Truck Fest by Amanda Penfold and it has quickly become a night time favorite. The kids can recite almost all the words to this rhyming book by heart. So when we were invited to the Cape Cod For Truck Festival, it was a no brainer. […]

November 12, 2018 Smashburger

Not all my meals as a blogger are glamorous – too be very honest, most days my kids want to eat at Panera. I swear if I have to look at another grilled cheese this week I may scream. So I try and find other places for them to try. We had a special mom […]
