Ever since I first heard from friends about Dancing Ewe Farm in Washington County, I’ve wanted to get there. I loved the romantic story about the owners meeting in Italy and coming together to create a life that includes family, sheep, cheese and authentic small production Italian products imported and sold from their barn and … Continue reading Lunch at Dancing Ewe Farm

Tortilla Flats aka as the place with a waiter who must have flatlined
We stopped in at a little joint Sunday afternoon down in the West Village, Tortilla Flats, hereafter referred to as the place with the worst service. Ever.

There was a distinct lack of greeting … Continue reading Tortilla Flats aka as the place with a waiter who must have flatlined

This child, who doesn't even like cheese, could not consume the lovely Italian pastries fast enough. I mean, the powdered sugar was flying as he gobbled them down, no joke.

We decided on a date and a destination and I immediately began … Continue reading Woodstock!
