Late the other night, after dinner and a run and some quality time with a pint of Haagen Daz, I finally settled on the couch with a bottle of cider and my guy to relax. The plan was to pick up where we last left off in our much-delayed viewing of The Sopranos and I … Continue reading When treats are tricks!

The ultimate CT
Does anyone else remember that abbreviation meaning something else back in the day? I'm not talking about the state of Connecticut either.

Cape Cod vacations have been … Continue reading Defining Luxury
