Apparently there is a snow storm brewing and heading toward New England…well it’s about time! You would think I was a happy skier with that statement but I am absolutely NOT! I am just in love with the “idea” of being a snowbound ski person. The thing I love best about it is the coziness and hankering down and bundling up and what better place to do it than in a beautiful ski-lodge in the mountains somewhere? Well, living in New England that’s a very easy thing to do.

The header photo is Stowe Mountain Lodge In Stowe Vermont. The photo alone takes my breath away and I want to go and stay for a week…just NO skiing please! LOL, I just want to eat in the restaurants and have a spa day and sit by a big huge fireplace and “watch” the skiers as they frolic in the beautiful glistening snow with a big glass of white wine in my hand.

Stowe says they are “In the midst of nature…and the height of luxury” and I couldn’t agree more. They offer a 360 degree tour on their website and services include: Gear, Lessons, Child Care, Fine Dining, Entertainment and many Spas. They are open year around with a 36-hole golf course, Country Club, Fall activities like a Gondola Skyride, a park with Bungee Trampolines, Wall Climbing, an Alpine Slide and even Day Camp for the kids! They have a beautiful outdoor pool as well.

Imagine dining here (Cliff House at Stowe), just one of their many restaurants:

Well while I DREAM about planning a trip up that way soon, I have Mexican food on the brain.

All you have to do now is add the salsa to some chicken and make a quesadilla for lunch!

Have a GREAT and most of all, “SAFE” weekend snow or not!
