I’m writing from the Omni Berkshire Place in NYC! In fact, I’m sitting on this very bed. (I wrote this on Saturday, by the way. I’m home now!) There is nothing I love more than relaxing in a serene hotel room all by myself. Not that I don’t adore my family, but sometimes it is [...]
During our visit to Lancaster County last weekend, we found this little gem in the heart of downtown Lancaster — John J. Jeffries Restaurant. John J. Jeffries is a restaurant I would drive an hour to patron. Located inside the The Lancaster Arts Hotel, the ambience is lovely. It’s an old building that they renovated, and [...]
Last week I wrote about the first day of our Lancaster County family vacation weekend. But our trip didn’t end there! We started off Day 2 with breakfast at Cafe 24 Hundred. We had tickets for a bus tour that was scheduled to leave at 9 AM, so we figured it would be easiest to [...]
We live within an hour of Lancaster County, so we are no stranger to the sites and attractions. Over the years we have taken family day trips to see plays, tour Amish villages and visit farms and orchards. I often trek out to Lancaster to meet up with friends and shop at the infamous outlets [...]
If you’ve ever been stranded on the side of the road with a flat tire or a burned out transmission, you know how valuable a reliable road assistance program can be. For years I subscribed to a popular roadside assistance program, but reliable it was not. Somehow I managed to spend more than my fair share of [...]
When we decided to take a short family beach trip for my birthday, we had several choices. I’ve been to several nice beachy locations over the past few years on blogging trips and press junkets, and I’d happily return to any of them. I really wanted to go back to Cape May and stay at [...]
It’s an odd thing, living in a historic area such as Philadelphia. You tend to forget that people travel across the country to see places in your own backyard. When we travel, we take tours and see the sites, but we tend to neglect our hometown. I’ve seen the historic sites in Philly several times [...]
It’s hard to believe that last week at this time I was enjoying a decadent lunch at Beach Plum Farm in Cape May, New Jersey. I filled you in on my press trip to Congress Hall, but I left out our afternoon at the farm because that post was getting waaaay too long and I wanted [...]
When my dear friends, Emily and Cooper of The Motherhood, invited me to visit Cape May for a Mom Blogger Retreat, I knew it was a trip I didn’t want to miss, but I had no idea what a gift it would turn out to be. I grew up going to the beach often — Virginia [...]
I’m sure of only two things in this life: 1. If there is a mosquito within a 30 mile radius, it will find me. And bring his friends. And relatives. And long lost cousins twice removed. To feast on my delectable blood. 2. When you have three kids, invariably one of them will be having [...]
