Scenes From the Weekend

Published on February 24, 2013 By Emily. Updated on February 24, 2013

I had a fabulous conclusion to my winter break.  I spent a couple days with my sister (and her new kittens) and then attended the wedding of one of my best friends from college.  My sister and I had a great time hanging out in Boston, eating at the Melting Pot, watching movies on Netflix and playing with the cats.  The wedding was wonderful—all of my apartmentmates from senior year were in attendance and it was wonderful to catch up with everyone; I hadn’t seen some of the girls since graduation.  The bride was beautiful and I’m so incredibly happy for her.  Back to work and regularly scheduled life tomorrow!

    And those kittens….what adorable little furballs!

      We were super classy and only ordered the cheese and dessert courses. It was perfect.

      I almost took a kitten home with me. Then I decided I wanted my sister to continue speaking to me. They’re pretty awesome.

    Suuuuuuuper fun to hang out with you and Brian at the wedding! It is amusing how much fun stuff we have in common! And look: I can even change my ways to be a better commenter. :) I’m so glad to be an honorary member of that fabulous colliegate apartment and it’s continuing antics!

      Yay for commenting! I’m so glad we got to catch up (and sorry that I left out the fact that YOU MADE THE WEDDING CAKE when I wrote this post. My brain was sleepy). I’m going to email you soon and be better about staying in touch. If I don’t, you should comment to remind me :)

Published on December 30, 2022 By Emily. Updated on December 30, 2022

It’s hard to believe that 2022 is basically behind us. Though overall this year found me getting back to the person I want to be (post-babies and “post”-pandemic), I did not try nearly as many new recipes this year as I used to. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I’d made note of any new-to-me recipes I wanted to share in this post. This year’s list is short, but delicious. It includes recipes from @budgetbytes, @smittenkitchen and @howsweeteats.

@coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one @coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one of the highlights of all my return trips to Boothbay and their annual Gardens Aglow event continues to impress. It was great to be back to walking the gardens instead of the pandemic drive through and there seemed to be more lights than ever.  I'm already looking forward to next year.

Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but t Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but this year we've had weather that has also been outstanding. The past 2 weekends have included time at Jaeschke Orchards, the Greylock Glen, and the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail as well as stopping to photograph any random foliage I see. 
Check out the last slide for video of some feathered friends we saw on a walk.

@freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favo @freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favorite events each year, and it doesn't hurt that it's just minutes away from home. Enjoying the festival with my kids is definitely a different experience than without, but it's still a good time. The weather was especially cooperative today which was great for all the laps I did around the @massmoca campus pushing a stroller. I'm already looking forward to next year.
