This past weekend, we attended the Hood New England Dairy Cook-Off in Providence, R.I. The kids came along and as you can see, they enjoyed the reception room. There were five rounds of competition (Breakfast /Brunch, Apps/Side Dishes, Soup/Chowders, Lunch/Dinner and Dessert) with contestants from each of the 6 New England States. We showed up…
This past weekend, we spent the weekend in Providence as we were attending the Hood Cook-off. On Saturday night, we went to The Cheesecake Factory and I ordered the Santorini Farro Salad and during the first bite, I mumbled ‘I so gunna make dis for di bog’. So, today I share my inspired version of…
