This past Saturday marked one of the first genuinely warm and sunny days we’ve had here in New England in quite some time. It also marked the beginning of Maple Season here in New England, with many of our local sugar houses offering pancake breakfasts, syrup sampling, and plenty of freshly-made products and goodies for […]
Although quite a few of my Valentines Days over recent years have been what some would consider a little unconventional (having been in a relationship since 2019 that then went long distance in 2020) I will always appreciate and look forward to a holiday that lets me celebrate love, chocolate, and the color red.
