February 18, 2020 Valentine’s Day Crafts and Baking

Valentine’s Day may be over, but I love hearts all year round. Between working on our school Valentine cards, our crafts at home and our grazing boards for friends, we have been celebrating all month long.

So what was on the menu? A 20lb whole turkey, a 5lb roast that we did in the Instant Pot and 10lbs of flank […]

March 24, 2017 Iggy’s Bread

I always enjoyed Iggy’s bread when I bought it at the store. I didn’t realize they have their own little shop over in Cambridge. It’s out of the way, and not super obvious to find, I drove by two or three times before I figured out where the lot was. Call me directionally challenged. Iggy’s sells […]

December 28, 2015 Bent’s Cookie Factory

Bent’s Cookie Factory is well known among Milton residents for their delicious sandwiches and their broken cookies. Years ago, when I used to work in Milton, this place was my downfall. I was coming here multiple times a week for the Winter Valley sandwich and some cookies for dessert. I was in the area and […]

December 29, 2014 Cookie Swap Favorites

Last week we had a cookie swap at work and while they were all great, here are some of my top picks! These reindeer cookies definitely got the “cutest cookie” award! I generally bake for the cookie swap, but this year it just got away from me. So I decided to do my very popular […]

May 14, 2014 4th Street Cookie Company

Famous 4th Street Cookie Company is located in the Reading Terminal Market, and is cranking out cookies to tons of tourists on a daily basis. The white chocolate macadamia nut cookie was probably my favorite. The butter almond cookies lacked a little bit of flavor for me. I was hoping for a really nice strong […]

September 15, 2012 Cheryl’s Cookies

I had seen Cheryl’s cookies on one of those discount sites, Groupon, Living Social, I get so many of those emails I can’t even remember where I bought it. I had heard that these were my boss’ favorite cookies, so I figured I would try them out and see what the fuss was all about. […]
