The Clocktower…

I knew that this Fall I wanted to do a more in-depth series about some of my favorite historic, probably-way-haunted locations, attractions and oddities in and around New England (and beyond!) I had attempted to do something similar last October, writing about a local unsolved crime from 1855 that took place not far from where […]

All the Fall Things…

Given my fully-packed schedule in the coming weeks (including dinner dates, trips to New Hampshire AND New York- and Football season, baby!) I’ve been enjoying as many early-Autumnal activities as I can on my half days/days off/weekends. This includes browsing the first pumpkins to make an appearance at Red Apple Farm– and playing with the […]

Local Loves: Saw Dust Coffee House & Dessert Bar

One of my favorite things to do on rainy, semi-chilly early-to-mid Autumn days off (much like today, coincidentally enough!

Cheers From The Pacific!

Good Morning from fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada! I arrived back in town yesterday afternoon/evening following an impromptu 24+ hour road trip to San Diego earlier this week where I stopped by to surprise longtime friends, visit some of my favorite neighborhoods- and catch a quick gig from The Killers (who I’m seeing again tonight!) San […]

Beating The Heat…

Many years ago, on one of my older blogs and well before ‘Coffee & Chiffon’ was launched- I had done an in-depth “Battle of the Beaches” between two popular New England Summer destinations- comparing attractions, food/beverage options, ocean access, parking costs, places to stay, etc., etc. The contenders at the time were Hampton Beach in […]
