Truffle Fries?

have you ever tried truffle fries? i haven't, and i must say they are divine. but i still love my regular old fries with a lot of salt on it. this past weekend my friend and i ventured out to this cute bistro on the corner of church st. and bank st. my friend had a burger with truffle fries, where i had a tomato, mozzarella, basil sandwich with a side of green salad and truffle fries. i was stuffed. as i said earlier, the truffle fries were divine.

Bear's Survival Kit

We have a lot of nicknames for Evie. i mean A LOT! And Bear happens to be one of them.

So, it only made sense for us to go blueberry picking at Sam Mazza's farm today. The weather was perfect. There was a slight breeze. And Bear was sleeping very comfortably while L & i picked blueberries for her survival kit. Did i mention we gathered 3 lbs of blueberries for Bear?

 

i think i need to make myself a lemon blueberry pound cake.

We Went on an Adventure!

Yesterday, L and i were bored. And so was our Evie. What was our adventure for the day going to be?

i ended up needing to go to Wal-Mart (the state of Vermont needs a Target!!! Did you know we're the only state without a Target either?!). Got all the items i needed. After our trip to Wal-Mart, we needed to stop by the bank. And so we did.

Then we decided at that moment, THAT EXACT MOMENT, to search for a lake that we've been meaning to look for since 2 years ago! With our iPhone and "map" handy, we took off for our little adventure.

There were trees and green fields. Barns and windy roads. Gravels and dirt. And then the most beautiful sight ever. Water. Clean, looking water.

It was so easy to find the lake, and according to our clock, the lake is only 20 minutes away from where we live. I can't believe it took us this long to attempt in searching for the lake. There was even a "beach"! i put beach in quotations because we all know a real beach is by the ocean, not a lake.

Without further adieu, let me introduce the lake we were searching for...*drumroll please*.

Lake Iroquois, formerly known as Hinesburg Pond, located in Williston, VT.

i know where Evie and i will be hanging out next year while L is fishing.

Breakfast was Oh My!

L and I ventured out to Sneakers yesterday for a breakfast date. Of course our Evie went as well. Our dates these days includes Evie because we want to include her in everything (minus the going out at night because babies aren't allowed in bars). Sneakers is an awesome breakfast place located in Winooski, VT.

L got his usual basic - which consists of sunny side up eggs, toast, breakfast potatoes, and bacon. We can't forget the bacon! Oh, and maybe two cups of coffee.

Me? I had the classic eggs benedict. And a caramel mocha. Oh, did it hit the spot!

Sorry for the long delay...having a newborn is a lot of work! Evie is now over 2 months! & I promise to be more active with my blogging posts...so stay tuned!
