Still full from Thanksgiving and an awesome dinner in the South End last night as we hosted friends from Philly, I only have the energy for a photo post that will bring back memories of last Thursday.
My mom made mashed potatoes.
We also had gravy and carrots and turnips.
I put together a nice mimosa.
My brother Patrick [...]
It is the day before Thanksgiving and it seems timely that Complement Week at 20SB is huge and Jamie at oh! how lovely! included the blogging community in her list of things she loves about blogging. Among many things, I am thankful for my blogging community and the fact that I received two more [...]
Three people drove to Philly together last Friday with three different comfort routes.
Jenny likes to take 95 through the George Washington Bridge, I like the Tappan Zee Bridge to the Garden State Parkway and Mike likes to hit up route 1 in Jersey after 287 and onto 95.
Since Jenny has a Garmin, and Hartford wasn’t [...]
Tucked way in the back of An Tua Nua in Boston each Sunday, in a private room during Football Season, a group of Philadelphia Eagles fans gather. Adorned with Eagles jerseys, eating appetizers and drinking $2 Coors Lite, wishing it was Yeungling, their eyes are glued to the large screen displaying the game.

I joined Upromise after my sister raved about it and the second that she told me, I nagged Mike to join too – he hasn’t yet.
Upromise is pretty much an account you can set up and link to your credit cards and depending on where you spend your money, earn cash for college. It is [...]
Build Boston and Greenbuild are are going on this week and between Mike attending Build Boston and my attempt to get in touch with the media a client attending Greenbuild, I thought I would dedicate this week’s roundup to, you guessed it, architecture.
The focus of architecture stretched beyond these conferences this week, when a pretty [...]
Flats are an important part of traveling, in my humble opinion. While you are better off wearing sneakers or something that will actually support your feet for the longer adventures, if you are visiting a friend in another city and have more casual strolls planned (and also want to wear a cute outfit that actually [...]
CC at Fork in the Road had a pre-Thanksgiving dinner with her friends in Dallas this weekend. Coincidentally, I was doing the exact same thing here in Boston. And, I will be doing the exact same with again in Philly next weekend. And then, it will actually be Thanksgiving.
What got me thinking was her very [...]
Now blogging at Europe String, this week Christine Gilbert uncovered something amazing.
Flights to Europe are going for under $600!
Take a look for yourself:
Scandia World Travel
Travel Zoo European Fares
Some of these prices are comparable to what I paid to fly from Boston to London back in 2004. If you have any plans to fly [...]
Last Sunday a quick stroll for lunch with Lisa turned into a meander around Davis Square in search for some ice cream. And when we couldn’t find any, it became a search for coffee that wasn’t from Starbucks*.
Does Davis Square really not have a local coffee shop?
A family stopped us at a corner and asked [...]
