On a quick weekend trip to Portsmouth, we only had one day to experience the New Hampshire coast! So many beaches to choose from I was swimming in decisions. I do declare I picked the perfect little beach, Great Island Common [301 Wentworth Rd, New Castle, NH 03854]. Tucked away […]

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 […]
Dangerously yummy, Comfort Kitchen 454 Broadway [Saratoga Springs, NY 12866] is hidden away in the Saratoga Marketplace, a fancy little mall on the downtown main drag. Even before you enter, if you’re a reader you’ll find out that this restaurant has a serious focus on locally sourced ingredients. Their menu […]
Kolache at Foxy Loxy [1919 Bull St, Savannah, GA 31401] is a rockin way to start your day. I had my first kolach (singular, plural has an E at the end) on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, Texas. One day I’ll get to writing about that […]
The only time I have ever heard the word Gullah was from a childhood show, Gullah Gullah Island. I didn’t realize it as much when I was a kid because it was just fun to watch, but the show was exposing me to a unique culture of the barrier islands […]
Searching for a satisfying sandwich in the Clifton Park area? I’ve got a great local spot for you to check out. The Halfmoon Sandwich Shoppe [1613 U.S. 9, Clifton Park, NY 12065] is bigger on the inside! Well, probably not, but you’ll be surprised to see how much seating is available. […]
Fresh, fancy, fit for a king frozen yogurt. Over the past few years a lot of different frozen yogurts spots popped up and in height of the craze, which spot do you choose to go to? Ayelada [1210 Troy Schenectady Rd, Latham, NY 12110] is the Greek word for Cow, […]
Tea is comfort on a cold night and icy revitalization on a hot day. It’s a way catch up with friends or have a moment of quiet meditation. I love tea, it’s a part of my every day life. A trip to Charleston, South Carolina taught me something about tea […]
Every meal we ate in Charleston was fantastic, but The Glass Onion [1219 Savannah Hwy, Charleston, SC 29407] absolutely took the cake. Thankfully I had made a reservation weeks before visiting, because the place had quite a queue, it was even hard to get a spot in the parking lot! […]
A magical multifaceted unicorn on the dining scene, custard at Persimmon Café [226 Calhoun St, Charleston, SC 29401] was life altering. Let me slow my roll, we can start from the beginning. We came for lunch and the little lot on the side of the restaurant was full, but we easily […]
Charleston is a city overflowing with bright colors, architectural charm, and palm trees. It’s very walkable, although there is also a free trolley that can get you to where you need to be. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, so if you plan on staying for a few […]
After a long day of running around, but not yet ready to quit, we were in Glens Falls and looking for a place to relax. Cooper’s Cave Ale Company [2 Sagamore St, Glens Falls, NY 12801] fit the bill and had some tasty libations to boot. A cozy table and […]
There are so many fusion joints popping up, a testament to our globalized melting pot culture. These restaurants are great for those nights when you just don’t know what you want to eat – because you can have a variety of things! Crazy Bowlz [301 Frank Sottile Blvd, Kingston, NY […]
We decided to plan out one day trip out of Negril during out stay and with so many options, it was really hard to choose. We wanted a lot of bang for our buck, to be able to see more than one attraction and definitely involve nature. What we really […]
When we were deciding on where to stay in Negril we had to choose between Seven Mile Beach and the Cliffs. Ultimately, Seven Mile Beach won out because what’s a trip to an island without easy beach access? However, our visit to Negril wouldn’t have been complete without spending some […]
