If…time and money were not a factor, this is how I’d spend my weekend in Bucks County and nearby.
I’d drop by the Stockton Market Friday evening for Sushi Night, created by Metropolitan Seafood (reservations required: 908.840.4332 by Thursday 1/19). Then pop over to the Centre Bridge Inn for [...]
As we move into real winter, warmth seems to be the theme of so many food events in Bucks County, with a little “ice” thrown in for good measure.
This Saturday evening is the official beginning of the Lambertville-New Hope Winter Festival. While most of the festival’s events will take place January 25 [...]
We’re finally back after a break for the holidays. Although the New Year is getting off to a slow start, there are some interesting things going on.
First I’ve got to share where we went for New Year’s Eve. As I’ve mentioned in an earlier post, the Lumberville General Store is [...]
Shopping and wine. Well, not necessarily together. It just seems looking around, many people are freaking that Christmas is only a week away. Hence, shopping. And looking at our food calendar, while the number of activities has dropped, many of them involve drinking wine. Seems a perfect antidote to the holiday craziness, no? [...]
As the holidays approach, the focus shifts and holiday eating – or partying – takes center stage. There are fewer markets as the growing season ends, fewer food events and more shopping and getting ready for the holidays. This is my way of saying that I’ve noticed the our calendar slimming down, even if the [...]
Members of Wednesdays for Women, a networking group of local women who meet at Hamilton’s Grill Room twice each month to share their expertise on business, health care and the arts, will hold their first holiday bazaar December 7 from noon to 7 pm at the Lambertville restaurant. Hamilton’s will be transformed into [...]
This Santa guy really gets around. Even in the digital age. Impressive.
Lots of Christmas-related food activities, like my favorite – “cookie walks” (what a great name, and activity!). Several churches and senior centers are holding cookie sales this week and next, including a cookie bake sale today and tomorrow at Trinity Episcopal [...]
Yes, it’s true. Turkey Day cometh. And I notice the Bucks Food Calendar getting a little slim this week as we approach the holiday. Never mind, there are lots of fun and interesting things to do this weekend and good weather to go with it.
Great micro-brewed beer and fine artisanal cheese, paired together. What [...]
Now we’re getting some real November weather. Cool and windy, as the last of the leaves blow away and leave the trees bare. Time for warming food like stews and soups. I feel the cooking itch, the need to make a big pot of something or a lasagne, enough to freeze for later in the [...]
It seems we’ll have some more fall days after all, despite the snowstorm last week. The snow is gone, although many people in Upper Bucks are still without power. Let’s hope they get it back soon! Meanwhile this weekend looks seasonally appropriate – sunny with temps in the 50′s.
But it is November. I’ve noticed [...]
As I make my way through the candy corn and spice cookies, I’m contemplating winter. Yes, winter. Tomorrow we’re supposed to get some snow. Gone by Sunday for sure but really? November is probably my least favorite month, no longer crisp fall days but not pretty snowy ones either. There’s Thanksgiving, it’s true. My favorite [...]
This seems to be the weekend to drink.
The 6th Annual Original Newtown Brewfest (the “other” Newtown Brewfest) is happening this Saturday, October 22nd at the Newtown Swim Club. Over 175 beers and select wines will be available along with food from local eateries. See their website for more info. In [...]
The weekend weather looks delightfully autumnal with crisp temperatures and sun. And the leaves are cooperating by turning all kinds of colors, just in the last few days. Amazing. So go do some leaf peeping in Bucks County.
It will be beautiful weather for a nice ride. Why not stop in at one of the [...]
As you know, I write about local food in Bucks County and nearby. But every so often, something else comes my way that isn’t food-related per se, and I’ve just got to tell people about it.
That’s the case with the 4th Annual Rick Fest, a local music festival happening this Saturday, October 15 in [...]
It’s that time of year again. Pumpkins everywhere! And big boys too, what with all the rain we’ve had.
Milk House Farm Market is running a contest to guess the weight of “Charlie Jr.,” one of their pumpkins. See Betty Cichy’s article in this week’s Intelligencer and Courier Times on Milk House Farm. [...]
