Daffodils and Daiquiris…

While people often believe that New England has four seasons in total year-round, I would argue that we technically only have three full-time ones, and that Spring is more of an “on-call” season. It shows up to help out when we need it every once in a while throughout April and May. Spring, especially here […]

Mysterious Hikes, Birthday Bonfires and Easter…

With my boyfriend traveling back to the West Coast as of yesterday to prepare for some upcoming and exciting career moves, I wanted to make sure I was fully present and savoring my last couple of days with him here in New England, hence why this post is going up today instead of on Wednesday […]

Arte, Illusions, and Steaks…

I’ve been back in Massachusetts for a couple of days now, having missed some wild weather (including a few tornado touchdowns!) as we begin to transition from Summer to Fall – but the mornings have had a delightful chill to them, and the storefronts are starting to display more and more pumpkins and mums – […]

Hydrangeas, Tiramisu and Classic Cars…

Around this time last year, I had taken a day trip to Hyannis to catch the last couple days of the annual Hydrangea Festival (one of my favorite flowers!) and do some shopping. I’d ultimately set a goal for myself during that outing that I would plan another trip in Summer 2025, except I would […]
