One More Shot of Spooky…

Happy Friday and Hello, November! I hope everyone had a fantastic Halloween yesterday/last night.

Local Loves: Location Updates!

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 […]
