"Over the winter, many of us like to hibernate. That can mean extra cozy blankets, or just some extra carbs to keep us warm. When I spend my bread tokens, I want to make sure to indulge in the best of the best. @wildgrainbox offers the chance to have monthly frozen baked good deliveries, all made by the pros.

A typical box includes everything from artisan sourdough loaves, fresh pasta, croissants and sweet treats. We love supporting a local Boston, MA company too, who also donates meals to the @greaterbostonfoodbank for every Wildgrain member."

I have been so, so patient waiting for December 1s

I have been so, so patient waiting for December 1st. I love advent calendars, the symbolism and the countdown to the holidays. This year I opted for a reminder of our amazing trip to Japan in 2019 with the @sugoimart Advent Calendar. There’s so many surprises, I won’t spoil them for you! Past calendars include character trinkets, Japanese sweets, and toy curiosities. 🫢

Quick visit to the corn festival today in Norwell, Massachusetts! This weekend is the 45th anniversary. Take a hayride, have some corn chowder, learn some native crafts, get your fall wreath, try a pony ride - there’s a little bit of everything! It’s taking place today and tomorrow at the Norwell science center. Stop by and celebrate fall New England-style! 🌽

I love a good women-owned, family-friendly brewery in any city. Redemption Rock Brewing Company (@RR_BrewingCo) has a fabulous selection of brews in Worcester, MA - and at the time had a great vegan food truck outside (@VutureFoo), too. I took home the vacation lager and a coconut cream ale. Our friends and the toddlers liked greeting all the dogs and munching on french fries. Win win! 🍻

Thanks @VisitMA and @DiscoverCentralMA!

Do you have an active #kiddo you want to travel with? Do you want to make sure your vacation is a mix of keeping them happy and relaxing a bit yourself, too? We love a good balance in our trips: which is why Central Massachusetts is just about perfect.

When there, make sure you hit up the @EcoTarium! Our toddler lost her marbles at her first planetarium experience, it was truly a highlight. There are also animal displays, a bubble play area, train rides, dinosaurs, and experiment stations.

Thanks @VisitMA and @DiscoverCentralMA!

Discover your own backyard! We had to get creative

Discover your own backyard! We had to get creative last month with COVID in the house. There's a great place called Hedges Pond in Plymouth, MA that has sandy beaches and mild waters for a dip. The main beach can get crowded, but if you're up for a short 10-minute walk through the woods, there's a secret beach on the other side of the pond. Not a soul there. We had a great afternoon nursing mild fevers and getting some fresh air!

Have you ever found a secret swimming spot?

NEW! We met some badass women in Oaxaca dominating their artistries and industries. Not to mention, we ate and drank our way around this beautifully colorful city too with @purposefulnomad . Have a look on PureWander.com!

Baby's first festival! The local @levitatemusicfestival this July was the perfect intro to live music for our toddler. She absolutely lost her marbles and loved (almost) every second. I think @umphreysmcgee was her fave! We're going to have to practice with headphones more so we can get closer to the stages next time.

Would you bring your kiddo to a music festival?

Cheers! Provincetown, MA is a bit slammed in the summer, but I managed to find a quiet beachside spot for some bubbles anyways. Yes it might have been like 11AM but who's telling time on vacation?!

If you'd like to plan a Provincetown holiday soon, head to PureWander.com and search 'Provincetown" for our full 2022 itinerary!

Welp, our summer weekend plans got busted. 😷 The whole family has COVID. I'm so thankful, so far, no one is severely ill and we might have been through the worst of it already. However, we're doing our best to keep the community safe and our loved ones by isolating as long as we're contagious.

Also luckily, we do still live close to a secluded beach that offers the perfect oasis for a bunch of sniffly, achy travelers who need a little salt air to cure ease their symptoms.

Tell us what you're up to this weekend so we can live vicariously through you! -Eileen

Happy world chocolate day! ☺ It just might be our favorite day of the year. Recently, we went on an incredible trip to Oaxaca, Mexico, and learned all about the sweet traditions there. A drinking chocolate is made with toasted cacao beans, copious amounts of sugar, and cinnamon sticks. It's so rich and delicious!

We loved traveling with @purposefulnomad - the worldwide tours are so authentic, in-depth and respectful of local communities to help visitors learn and appreciate local craftsmanship.

The cacao bean grinding takes some time but the final product is well worth it. The power of women in Oaxaca to make chocolate by hand it amazing to witness!

What's your favorite kind of chocolate?! 🍫

Oaxaca, #Mexico is magic. And the women in Oaxaca are not messing around!

We had the privilege of visiting so many incredible establishments of Zapotec women who have built local craft and skillshare co-ops from scratch. Not only are they empowering themselves, but they are also financially supporting local projects to lift up their entire communities. I can't wait to share all the details in upcoming posts!

Who made all this happen? The team behind @purposefulnomad, which offers bespoke trips worldwide for curious women and families. We had such a fun time with this crew!

Thanks to the gradual lifting of travel restrictions and social distancing measures, many of us are being bitten by the #travel bug again. But for people in recovery (or those who simply don't drink), vacations can be a double-edged sword. Thankfully, #alcohol-free #vacations can still be loads of fun. 🍹

My home! With all the traveling I've been privileged to experience over the last decade and a half, I've never dove deep into my hometown of #Plymouth, Massachusetts. If you visit, here's a TON of fun things to see, hailed by a local. -Eileen
