A Boston Blate

After ten days of New England Bliss...I am back in my home land. And I should mention the first thing I did this morning was get Chic Fil A...

Before I get to my blate, here are a few pictures from our adventure( I will be doing a more specific post on each later, but for now)


Dinner in Sharon at my brother in laws house


The Bridge leaving Boston and heading up towards New Hampshire


A view of 
Lake Chocorua
Our favorite spot in N.H.:
Mount Washington Hotel
Wiki reading our niece a story. She was all into it.
This picture does absolutely no justice.
Whatsoever.
Popham Beach, Maine.
Bye Bye, Maine! We had a great time!
 The view from Wiki's aunts vacation spot in Portsmouth, R.I.
Was beyond peaceful here. Could have stayed forever.

After a week we were back in Mass and on Saturday I got to meet up with a favorite bloggy friend, Kerry from Till Then, Smile Often. We met up at the 99 off Rte 1 for lunch. and oh you know...

a few (giant) margaritas. all for $3.99 and they don't play either. These things were potent!

A picture to commemorate the event!

and how awesome are these little goodies! 

I wrote a post on my other blog last week about my favorite bourbons and she got me some and a mason jar  insulated glass I had been eyeing, I mean...what better way to a Southern girl's heart;) 

We had lots of giggles. and the best was after Wiki showed up, he joined us for a bite. Our server was funny and said what ever was on her mind. First she thought he didn't know us and was just flirting and I laughed off that he was my husband...but then she looked at him...looked at me. and then quipped "Have you ever seen the sun? Why is he so dark and you're so pale? 

I mean...what do you say to that?! I was so offended too because I thought I had a little tan! Humph.

Basically Food, Wine & Chocolate

ruled my weekend. I know you guys are shocked. Eating and drinking wine...us? Always.
The best part of this weekend was that we had no plans other than being around and following the wind as it blows. And it is also the only weekend we have been home in 4 weeks and we won't be back home till the 3rd weekend of September...I am already tired thinking about it!

Friday night we ate at our new favorite place, Bruno's next door. And once again I devoured the Bourbon & blackened chicken rigatoni. Why mess with a good thing? and then, afterwards, not quite sure what to do with ourselves and our free time...last minute remembered that the Art Museum does outdoor movies in the Summer and headed over to catch that night's flick.


Love this movie! Not only was it filmed on our favorite beach in Jekyll Island, it is based on the first black regiment which was out of Readville, MA, a suburb of Boston and Wiki's aunt lives right where they trained for battle in the Civil War.


Checked out some of the outdoor sculptures on the way back to our car.

On Saturday, I made some fluffatella goodness bars and then headed out for baby shower pow wow planning for some twinises.


My bestie sent me this awesome and super sweet photo book from her wedding. And she wrote the best note in the back that may have left me bawling. happy tears of course.


 Saturday night we headed to one of our favorite areas, Layfette Village and hit up one of our favorite wine & tapas bars: Vinos Finos I love the barrel table with the corks and lights underneath the glass top.
Wiki enjoying his coffee after a delicious meal! and looking all kinds of hot. If I do say so myself.

yesterday we headed to the outlets to pick up some last minute tickets to see the Killers tonight. I cannot even tell you how excited I am to see this show!!! I love them!

On our way home we stopped in the super sweet town of Hillsborough. We had a quick bite and then refuled with coffee and homemade chocolates. They were so beyond tasty!

and then we headed out to downtown for the food truck rodeo. Over 70 vendors and amazing scrumptious eats! If you want to find out more about it and when the next one is,head over to my other blog.



How was your weekend?!
