Good Afternoon, I’ve enjoyed pumpkin season so much this year, but I think it officially ends with Christmas. I had half of a can of pumpkin in my fridge last night, so I made one last loaf of pumpkin bread (with a little bit of frozen butternut in it as well) to bring home to my family. I filled this one with raisins, so I’ll let you know how it tastes. Like most of my trips home, my schedule is…

Half days are awesome!!! I went to work and then came right home again:) I did a quick stint on the elliptical before Kath and Kanz arrived all bundled up and ready for a walk! We strolled down Newbury for a bit and tasted some sweeet balsamics at the Boston Olive Oil Co. before heading back home. It was so brutally cold out and now my body is itching and red with chapped skin:( As soon as Matt arrived home…
Thanksgiving at Matt’s was just dandy. After an hour stint at the local Gold’s gym, a beer tasting ensued. The Mad Elf Ale was BEER-tastic!

Since our trip was only a one-nighter, we decided to start the vacation before we even left Boston with more pumpkin pancakes on Saturday morning. After picking up our rental car in Cambridge, we made a pit-stop in Newton to check out the Great Harvest!!! They had samples of an amazing pumpkin bread with gooey cinnamon. After two hours…
An orange squash brought much joy to my life last night. I dressed up as a lobster, met up with a vampire… as well as a cop and a hunter… and headed to a pumpkin beer festival at the Cambridge Brewing Company!!!!!!! When we arrived, there was a huge wait, but we braved the cold for an hour and a half because we LOVE beer. It was totally worth it in the end. We were ravenous when we finally got…
