I’m always screaming for ice cream this summer, all over the place. The foodnetwork is my guilty pleasure. Whenever I have access to cable television I can watch it all night! Bobby Flay is my guy, and I love watching his throwdown show. So this summer on a hot day […]

Once in a while I find a special brewery that steals my heart. I’ll admit I’m not a big craft beer drinker, but my partner in crime is and I love supporting local businesses. On Fourth of July we were out riding around the most beautiful American country roads in […]
I can’t stress it enough, I am not exaggerating, this place has changed my life. I found the best ice cream on earth at Battenkill Valley Creamery [691 County Route 30 Salem, NY 12865 (which my GPS didn’t take) or Intersection of CR 30 and Joe Bean Rd, Salem NY (which […]
On a sweltering summer day, nothing sounds sweeter than a dip in a secret swimming hole. They’re presently hard to come by, many of my old haunts are off limits, patrolled by police. Recently I was riding around Washington County and came upon a pretty rare and magical unicorn of […]

I found a new love! I am the biggest fan of Sweet Beet Bistro [93 Main St, Greenwich, NY 12834], a romantic little dinner spot on a picturesque rural main street. When a restaurant cares about the ingredients they put in their food and community that they are situated in, […]
When you hear ‘Battenkill’ you might think about milk from their creamery. You may have heard of a bicycle race in the area. Maybe you’ve tubed or kayaked down the river, what could be better on a hot summers day? How about a hot sweaty hike, possibly climb, up 1260’? […]
Lovely is the word to describe this sequence I’m about to fill you in on; Head to Salem, NY (no witches to be found here). You haven’t spent too much time in Washington County? Neither had I until recently, until the day I discovered Steiningers. I had heard good things […]
