Say Farewell to Summer

We had a fantastic summer. I call it the summer of rainbows and lobsters. We saw an unbelievable number of rainbows and enjoyed plenty of delicious lobster boil dinners.

We're easing into fall. Tomorrow a friend is hosting her annual welcome to fall party for 100 of her closest friends.

The weather promises to be indian summer like, so I won't say no.

Somerville Styles

Living in Somerville, Mass. I know something of hipsters.  This city is a mashup between locals, hipsters and other gentrifiers.  There are many places to go in the city to live any of those lives. 

Locals: The Mount Vernon
Hipsters: Taza chocolate
Gentrifiers: Journeyman and BackBar

Now pop open your favorite beverage and enjoy.

What the Fluff Festival Today

I can feel the excitement building - right down the hill from our house this afternoon will be a celebration of the best inventions to come out of the city of Somerville, Mass.  Namely, Fluff.  You know, that gooey treat that probably takes as long to digest as a donut.  Anyway, we're taking the kids there this afternoon - to meet up with some friends and join in the festivities.
