Come walk around the spookiest city in the state on our Salem, Massachusetts Family Trip vlog from late September. It’s the perfect time to experience the ‘witch city’ with beautiful fall weather, just before the Halloween madness descends on town along with massive crowds. Enjoy a hang out with our family and follow along as we walk around the home of the Salem Witch Trials and get a tasty vegan lunch at a popular vegetarian spot. Also added is some footage from the end of the day when we visited the Old Burying Point on the walk back to the…

On the search for a delicious lunch spot Friday, we came across what appeared to be a newly opened bakery. Lanes may have been cut across – even though the exterior did not suggest a authentic fine European bakery, we were hopeful that they would at least have some sandwiches. Sadly, no sandwiches, but they did have a passable selection of pastries, breads, cakes, and other treats. I couldn’t leave without something for my munchkin, so for dessert he got a little decorated frog cookie which was promptly inhaled.

My little sweetie and I are not doing well this weekend – he woke up Thursday night burning up with a fever and it has been downhill from there.

Every time I go to the store I dream about fresh, ripe summer raspberries that we hand-pick from a local orchard. Every berry is perfect when you can pick them yourself!

This morning the sun was struggling to come through the cloudy haze – everything was grey and white, and finally it’s started to break through. I even see a hint of blue sky behind the snow covered branches.

I found these flip-flops on the snow mat by the door. Looks like my little guy is ready for warm weather too!

Now that it is officially the New Year, I can embrace the longing for spring. I tried to ignore it during the holidays, but now that the magic of all that is over I have nothing to distract me from the fact that I wish it were warm and winter was done. This is further complicated by the fact that we are in the middle of Winter Storm Hercules which is dropping inch after fluffy inch on us. Maybe it will be a short winter, spring will bloom early and everything will warm up and turn green before we even…
