Hello from Sam Adams!

June 3, 2011

Just a quick hello from the Sam Adams Brewery in Boston! They have a new high-tech photo booth (minus the actual booth) for you to take a souvenir photo and email it to yourself or a friend. You can get a single picture or a photobooth style. No contest here for me. Photobooth, hands down.

Redbones, Somerville

May 31, 2011

Man, I love barbeque. We went out with a group of Dane’s co-workers to Redbones in Somerville for some delicious meaty goodness and were not disappointed. We started up at the bar while they figured out our seating for 11, which was just fine with us. To be adventurous I decided to spin the Wheel [...]

But mainly, there’s lots of laughs. McGreevey’s is on Boylston Street in Boston, right near some other notable [...]

Mr. Bartley’s Burger Cottage, Cambridge

March 19, 2011

During one of our ridiculous snowstorms here in Boston Dane and I both had a snow day at work (one of the perks of working in higher education). Nothing could get us to leave the house. OK, one thing. Burgers from Mr. Bartley’s Burger Cottage in Harvard Square. Despite the foot of snow on the [...]

Orangeade Recipe

March 16, 2011

Who’s completely sick of winter? ME! I was totally feeling stuck inside and done with the cold and wind when I decided to make myself a little treat that reminded me of summer and fun. Orangeade! This came about because I happened to have fresh oranges and was in a cranky mood about the weather. [...]

Vee Vee, Jamaica Plain

February 21, 2011

Somehow after living in JP for almost 4 years, I had never heard of Vee Vee until recently. Thanks goodness Rebecca remedied this. As she swooned and was almost speechless over the sirloin she had had there, we decided it could not wait. We had to go to Vee Vee that night. It was a [...]
