Skiing Anyone?

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…

Spring…..wait…..WHERE?

I’m trying very hard to catch the Spring fever that some are so fortunate to have. Us in New England on the other hand, had a band of snow yesterday and last evening with frigid temperatures that make it hard to believe Spring is really here. I think I speak for all of us when…
