Seven of us (including my 1 yr old) went to Cantina on Sat for a quick tapas style lunch with drinks. The Greek (aka my dad) was paying and we kept ordering Margaritas! That evening we were going to dinner at Bellini’s near Waterford so we didn’t want to eat too much. I took the […]
My friend Kate and I had dinner at Sweet Basil recently since my hubby is away in CA at a conference. My daughter came with us but she slept in her car seat all night! We started with some authentic village bread and a pesto/butter spread. The vibe inside is cozy and rasta-like, pretty funky […]
La Cava - Cocina & Vinoteca
Great restaurant 2 steps from our house Casa conde de Pestagua in Cartagena, Colombia. Plaintain wrapped grouper for an app, shrimp with rum and garlic potatoes for main, and liquid bread pudding for dessert (at least it tasted like liquid bread pudding!). More details to follow soon!
Scott and I were doing some returns and shopping at the Natick Collection on Sat, and we decided to go have lunch at Sel de la Terre. Denise and I had been there before and really liked it. Sofia was with us so there was a brief moment of panic when her sticky nosy hands […]
Here we are on a sunny COLD sunday morning in Bristol, RI - Sofia and her cousin Harrison got christened / baptised in a non-denominational ceremony, just like we prefer it! Lunch followed at Quitos in Bristol (been there about a billion times in last 9 years and I still love it), I got something […]
monkeys, yay!

Hi everyone! Lots has happened since my last post, I went into labor on July 8th at the Back Eddy, and delivered a beautiful baby girl on July 9, 2007 at 10:57am! The funny thing is that I managed to eat my scallop entree at the back eddy DURING contractions, no way will I miss […]
The Back Eddy
So were all set to go to a place called Marguerite’s but they gave our table away (even though we had reservations, what the?) so I made the call to my fav place in Westport - The Back Eddy - and they sat us in like 30 min!
We have been here many times […]
melanzane affumicatio at Piattini’s on Newbury
ahhhh, Piattini on Newbury st! It has never disappointed me, been there maybe 5 times over past years and always leave happy. Its a tiny slice of Italia in Boston, just like sitting in a small ristorante in Roma, Scott and I were sighing as we sat and sipped on […]
We ate at “Pot Au Feu” couple of weeks ago and really liked it. I started with the escargots app (garlic butter) yum! Followed by steak with a red wine demi-glaze sauce and veggies. This really hit the spot for a preggie girl, but to top it all off, enjoyed a “pot au chocolate” and […]
