the fourth.

Tyler and I leave for our annual 4th of July pilgrimage to Maine tomorrow morning and I have a laundry list of food places to visit.  Some old haunts some newbies and all look absurdly wonderful.  I have plans to finally share my favorites with all of you when I return! 

Besides eating lobster, doughnuts, and eggs I will also be catching up on my reading, lounging around in cut-off shorts, and antiquing (and a trip to Brimfield!).  

An ideal 5 day weekend is ahead of me.  

If you are looking for some superb holiday eats to bring to any of your weekend BBQ's, boy do I have the list for you.  (I personally would be thrilled if anyone showed up to my BBQ with one of these).
