From the first time I went there with a friend on vacation more than six years ago to the Lake George Region Restaurant Week meal I had last night, it is consistently good. The only problem? I… Continue reading The Lobster Pot – Lake George Restaurant Review
The best part about this meal at The Boardwalk was the service.Whoever wrote the Restaurant Week menu should have notified the chef of what was on it. Right off the bat, things didn’t start off the greatest. There is an upstairs and downstairs, and what I didn’t know before getting there is that they each… Continue reading The Boardwalk Restaurant During Lake George Restaurant Week June

Growing up in a family where my mom’s side was Italian meant not only learning to make sauce, but how to make sausage and meatballs to go into said sauce. When I became a vegetarian, the ball game changed a little — I haven’t made meatballs from scratch in at least 15 years, and sausage… Continue reading This Vegetarian Can Still Cook Meat

I love planting a garden and being able to walk outside my door, grab a cherry tomato and pop it in my mouth. It was something my mom yelled at me for all the time when I was little, because I would never wash it. So, when I bought my house and saw the large… Continue reading Finally! The Start of My New Garden
This tomato and cucumber salad is so refreshing on a hot day. I intended to make it as a side, but instead just ended up eating the whole salad for dinner, because it was just so good!
