A Few of My Favorite Things: November 2023

I hope that everyone who celebrated last week had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday! A few days off to savor some good food, great company, and recover from some out-of-state-travel this past weekend was exactly what I needed to feel refreshed, reinvigorated and ready to get back into work and blogging again!

Local Loves: The Venetian

Earlier this week, I wrote about stopping by the “Snowport” Holiday Pop-Up in Boston’s Seaport District over the weekend, but that wasn’t the only seasonal destination on my to-do and must-visit list while I was in the area. To wrap up a truly fun and festive day- my friends and I made sure to grab […]

Cocoa, Crafts and Christmas Spirit…

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve spent a Saturday morning or afternoon out and about in Boston’s Seaport District. It’s not because I’m not a fan of the area or it’s wide array of bars and restaurants- but because my visits to the city almost always take me to the complete opposite sides of […]

While scones sometimes get a bad […]

This Is Halloween, This Is Halloween…

It was only a matter of time, but we’ve come up on the last couple of days of my extended West Coast journey. In a little over 24 hours I’ll be boarding a plane back to New England to ride out the remainder of my vacation before it’s time to return to work, colder weather, […]

Haunted Happenings…

Although I’ve been in California for nearly two weeks now, my “official” vacation didn’t kick off until today. Since my arrival at the beginning of the month, I’ve been working remotely throughout San Diego and Orange County- starting my day at four in the morning and wrapping up e-mails/tasks around 1:30 in the afternoon. Sure, […]
