February 5, 2014 Spa at the InterContinental Hotel

We picked a day in January for a day of gluttony, which started with a cooking demo at Petit Robert and lunch at Miel. After our lunch, we headed over to the spa at the InterContinental. Located on the second floor of the hotel, our appointments were late in the afternoon. The lockers were right […]

October 8, 2013 Sweet

We went away with some friends to Vermont and they were kind enough to send over a really “sweet” thank you. Sweet cupcakes delivered a dozen cupcakes to our house. Unfortunately, when we opened them up, this is what they looked like. It’s the thought that counts right? The cupcakes in the middle fell over […]

September 25, 2013 Farm Fresh RI Veggie Box

On of my co-workers suggested that we get a CSA farm share delivered to our office once a week (you need an 8 person minimum to become a delivery site). Probably one of my favorite things we have done in the office in a while. Farm Fresh RI comes and delivers us fresh veggies every […]

September 13, 2013 New York in September

September 10, 2013 A Ride with Boston Pedicab

For our summer company outing we spend the morning getting sweaty running around Back Bay doing a photo scavenger hunt. My team, team blue, won! Afterwards, we all jumped into pedicabs to the seaport for lunch. Getting all the pedicabs together was a site to be seen on Stuart Street! All the drivers were super […]

June 14, 2013 Bully Boy Distillers

Bully Boy  is a small batch distillery owned by two brothers Will an Dave Willis. Bully Boy’s name pays homage to a favorite farm workhorse. We grabbed a Groupon for a tour of the distillery in Boston ($35 for a tour for 4). The warehouse is kind of in the middle of nowhere, we had […]

If not, you can see it here: http://dgrubs.wordpress.com/tag/catering/ Through them, I was invited to Taste of Seamless, an event on March 6th at the State Room. Traffic was a nightmare! Getting from Back Bay to 60 State took about 25 minutes, and was a […]

February 24, 2013 Rita’s Catering

I was contacted at my office one day to see if we were interested in a new (not new, but new to us) catering company. They brought us over some of their delicious food to try. We were really impressed by the quality and the freshness of the food. We deal with a lot of […]
