Fall Day Trip to Edgartown

Martha’s Vineyard is such a popular destination in the summer, but I’m here to tell you, that fall on the Vineyard is truly the best time to visit. Once the last of the tourists depart on Monday of Labor Day Weekend, the islanders take a deep breath, and reclaim the Vineyard as their own. I know this, because I lived on the island for many …

A Visit to Wicked Tulips Flower Farm

Last year, I checked the 5 day forecast early in May, and saw that we were supposed to have a glorious sunshiny day in the high 70’s. That’s not typical New England weather this time of year, so I was giddy. I decided I would take a day off from work and enjoy the sunshine with my daughter Elle (who was 2 at the time). …

So I hope that anyone looking to travel to the Big Island of Hawaii, may find this unbiased …

Valentine’s Day Craft for Kids

Remember how once upon a time we lived in a world with NO Pinterest? Seriously, what did we do to plan weddings, home decor, baby showers, recipes, fashion??? I’m sooo thankful Pinterest exists, so I don’t have to come up with my own ideas for anything {kidding, kidding, sort of}. A few weeks ago, I was searching for some Valentine’s Day arts and craft ideas, …

Valentine’s Day Brown Sugar Cookies

A few weeks ago, Elle and I decided to give a new sugar cookie recipe a try. It was freezing outside, so I figured it was the perfect day to try out this recipe, so that if we loved them, we could bake them again in time for Valentine’s Day. I’m planning on putting them in some cute cellophane bags, tying them up with a pink ribbon and attaching …
