Continue reading →: good airport food
I’m obviously *not* referring to Boston’s Logan airport (sorry folks). My last post relating to my recent Seattle trip is about how different other airports are (or can be) from what I’m used to in Boston. I mean, just the architecture and traffic flow alone of Sea-Tac and SFO are…

Another highlight from our Seattle trip was dinner at Ivar’s Acres of Clams on the waterfront. As touristy or hokey as it seemed, we decided to try it out because our duck tour guide highly recommended it and they just recently celebrated their 100th anniversary, so they’ve got to be…

Last month, I flew out to Seattle, Washington and met my mom there for a “mom and me” weekend, and for some special one-on-one time together. In my 32 years of being, I’ve never done anything like that with just me and her. We’ve always had other people around like…

Speaking of sunny weather … I was going through some recently taken photos on our computer hard drive and came across this one I snapped of my lunch last month on one of those oddly warm days. Seeing it again reminds me of those warm days where eating lunch outside…

Or, at least of semi-warm weather (and no rain or sleet or snow). We had a nice warm day last Saturday (dare I say it reached 70? maybe just high 60’s? warm enough that we didn’t need a jacket) so we took a stroll along the Charles River after miraculously…

If you ever want to gather a ton of people under one roof, announce that you’re giving away cupcakes for free. That’s essentially what happened at the Cupcake Camp Boston 2011 event last Wednesday evening (and it wasn’t completely free – there was a suggested donation of $5 to benefit…

Continue reading →: birds
I have always had a fascination with birds for some reason. I think I may have been one in a former life. Wouldn’t it be so great to be able to fly? Anytime you wanted to get away, you’d just have to spread your wings and could just go. Good…

I woke up one morning to find this note on the kitchen counter which was pointing towards my camera (obviously not seen in this shot because, well, I kind of needed it to shoot this shot). [Please, let’s not get into the misspelling right now.] So I turned on the…

Continue reading →: almonds
I decided to brave yet another food allergy theory to see if I am still and/or really allergic to some nuts. So I bought a can of plain, raw almonds the other day at the grocery store and so far … … so good!! No hives, no terrible rashes, and…

For the longest time (okay, I say that a lot …) I thought I was allergic to spinach. It’s been on my list of the “I want to retest this sometime to make sure” list, ever since I realized I couldn’t eat potatoes anymore. You see, I used to eat…
