October 8, 2013 by Carrie @ poet in the pantry 6 Comments
me and Graham Elliot at the Greenwich Wine + Food Festival 2013 - poet in the pantry

On Saturday I continued my birthday week celebration with a visit to the Greenwich Wine + Food Festival presented by Serendipity.

CT Brewers's Guild's Brewfest at Ski Sundown

There’s no better way to say hello to Fall than by spending a day outdoors sampling the best beer your area has to offer. The official end of summer could be bittersweet, but a hoppy giddiness soon sets in: summer forgotten, fall is welcomed with open arms. Enter my favorite season of the year. Ski … [Read more…]

I’ve been trying to gather my thoughts so I could write a re-cap, but what I walked away with was more of a mind-altering experience than something concrete to put to pen and paper (or keyboard and screen). In a … [Read more…]

Going the way of Templeton… Southington Apple Harvest Festival

Southington Apple Harvest

  I managed to avoid the numerous fairs this season. You know, Connecticut has at least one during every weekend from late August until late October, and we’re not far from the Big E either. I love the idea of fairs–but the reality is often frustrating. Congested parking (sometimes with exorbitant fees), high admission costs, … [Read more…]
