I’m not ashamed to admit that on a recent road trip to Somersworth we drove through towns and parts of New Hampshire that I had never seen before. It was a beautiful not-quite-spring day in January and we were ready for an adventure with our 12 extra minutes of winter daylight. Our destination was Bad […]
Is anyone else no longer really sure what day it is? My mornings have been a confusing mix of thinking about whether or not it’s a work day, whether or not I need to look presentable (is it a Zoom call or webinar?) and then I listen to The Daily to remind me of the […]
Hello there, blog readers! Never has it been so confusing and complicated to help promote our restaurants and beverage suppliers here in New Hampshire. At the outset, I hope you are all doing well and I look forward to sharing more about restaurants and the food industry in-person in the (hopefully near) future! I have […]
One quote I’ve been seeing a lot on social media lately comes from one of the greatest, kindest souls of the last century, Mr. Fred Rogers: When I was a boy and would see scary things on the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who […]
Picture this: it’s Saturday morning and you’re enjoying your first cup of coffee in your pajamas, maybe watching some cartoons (aren’t they bringing Lizzie McGuire back??). Maybe you’re making a grocery list or struggling through a New York Times crossword, but definitely not checking work emails. You’re well-rested and hankering for a pastry but feeling […]
I am a big fan of the weekend brunch year-round, but winter always seems to be a good time to reconnect with my favorite breakfast/brunch spots. While one of my goals for this next year is to re-learn how to ski, I love a good lazy winter morning drinking too much coffee and ordering multiple […]
I tried coming up with a creative title for this post, but nothing felt quite right. The more common definition of vulgar, of which I was more familiar with is lacking sophistication and good taste; unrefined. However, nothing about the new Vulgar Brewing Company in Franklin is lacking good taste! When you walk in you’ll […]
Today’s blog post might not come as an impressive, innovative new restaurant to those of you who have lived in New Hampshire your whole lives. However, sometimes restaurants are popular tourist destinations for good reason, and Polly’s Pancake Parlor is always a good idea. Let’s talk about the view, shall we? Unless you planned on […]
At first look, it’s hard to tell that the beautiful new Twin Barns Brewing Company facility was recently two 1850s conjoined barns discovered in Meredith by co-founders Bruce Walton and Dave Picarillo. Upon further review, the logo, two-toned paint job, and interior exposed beams tell more of the story. Located right on Daniel Webster Highway […]
Throughout the state, New Hampshire has some pretty amazing museums! Whether you’re checking out the Currier Museum of Art or the Millyard Museum in Manchester, the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center (and planetarium!) in Concord, the Robert Frost Farm in Derry, the Fells Estate in Newbury, the Franklin Pierce homes in Concord or Hillsboro, Strawbery Banke in […]
