When I first launched ‘Coffee & Chiffon‘ all the way back in January of 2020 (can you believe it’ll be five years in just a few months!?) one my goals was to highlight and showcase some of my favorite businesses, oddities, and off-the-beaten-path spots in and around New England – and beyond! – that were […]
It’s been a hot minute since I shared some photos of any of the cool, abandoned, and often historical places in and around New England (something I did quite often at the height of the pandemic since social distancing made it so easy!) although my longtime passion for what is commonly referred to as “Urban […]
And just like that, with Christmas still fresh on everyone’s’ minds, we are officially in the final stretch of 2023! Knowing what my year-end blogging traditions are- and once we had hit mid-November- I knew I had to begin looking through and revisiting thousands upon thousands of photos I’ve snapped over these past twelve months […]

With 2021 only a few days away, this is the time of year I typically reflect on the year that was- the ups, downs (of which there were many) and revisit the photos I’ve taken over these past months of quarantine, social distancing, and uncertainty. In previous, similar compilations- my “Top 10 Photos” usually consisted […]
