Screw Hallmark - as far as I'm concerned, May 5th was my ideal Mother's Day. No matter what happens next Sunday, I will cherish the day I had, from the scandalously late start to the fortified-with-an-afternoon-nap late ending - perfect! Let me be a little more specific...

Feasting my way around Freiburg
A big part of traveling, for me at least, is the food. I've seen some stuff written recently about Michelin starred restaurants in Germany, but that wasn't what this trip was about.

I finally got to Mezze, an awesome restaurant just south of Williamstown, MA., after years of hearing about it. I'd heard praise for this place for so long, I can't even remember who* originally recommended it.

As the weekend progressed, I mentally inventoried each special little thing that cumulatively gave me one of my favorite birthday celebrations ever. Noting 46 of these items was … Continue reading Birthday Weekend Memories!
