Seriously? I still haven’t posted about Boston??? If we didn’t have such amazing eats in Beantown, I may not have ever have gotten around to writing this one… Boston was the end city on our East Coast Roadie, with over 700 miles of driving. We saw some amazing sights and ate delicious food. We had … Continue reading »
When Ben and I started talking about our East Coast Roadie, I started plotting our destinations on a map. What I realized very quickly was that along our route was a very special restaurant, one that I’ve been thinking about for a while now. I put my nose to the grind stone and worked my … Continue reading »
We’ve been on the go for a week and to give us some down time, we stopped in Cape Cod for a few nights. Before this trip, the only thing I knew about Cape Cod was from black and white images of the Kennedy’s summering there. But that was enough for me to know it … Continue reading »
The next stop on our East Coast roadie was Philadelphia. I was armed with an amazing list of places to eat courtesy of my friend Desjardin’s, Uncle Eric. Always excited to get a good recommendation, I was ecstatic when I received this thoughtful list of the high to low ends of Philadelphia eating. Knowing I … Continue reading »

After a couple of very crazy weeks of work I was in need of an adventure to blow off some steam. A weekend in Seattle? Yes please! Friday 1:30pm – Leaving home later than I’d like and I’m in a bad mood because I know we’re going to hit traffic. 2:20pm – Peace Arch border … Continue reading »
I have been a bit uninspired with eating out lately. I don’t know if it’s that I’ve looked at too many menus only to think that they’re all looking the same, or if it’s that when I have gone out in the past few months, I haven’t really been “wow’d”, or if it’s that I’m … Continue reading »
Taking the ferry to Vancouver Island means 1 of 2 things for me, paddling or prawning. And because it’s not time for the Victoria Dragon Boat festival, that meant that I was eagerly anticipating a weekend of prawning with my brother-in-law Mark. After last year’s success, we were eager to get out on the water … Continue reading »
Some people dream of owning a sports team, I dream of owning a winery. While some “people” claim that both are for the truly egomaniacal looking to throw their money away, I think that given the right conditions, (and the right crop insurance), that being the proprietor of a small boutique winery would be a … Continue reading »
