New Jersey to Vermont Road Trip Part 3 (Stowe and Auto Toll Road)
Last week I shared the second leg of my family's road trip from New Jersey to Vermont. (I shared about our Stowe, Vt., hotel, The Lodge at Spruce Peak, and our day checking out sights like the Beb & Jerry;s factory.) My family had driven up through New York State and stayed in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., one night to break up the drive and visited Burlington, Vt., before heading to Stowe. We woke up to a beautiful sunny morning our second full day in Stowe. I was happy since our first full day in Stowe was rainy. (That day we did the Ben & Jerry's tour and went shopping). My family and I Continue reading...
Homemade Sorbet Recipe
Welcome to the Taste Creations blog hop! Every month, my blogging friends and I get together to share delicious recipes. This month, we are sharing ice cream and sorbet recipes! For today's get together, I whipped up a batch of fresh homemade strawberry sorbet. Yum! My sorbet recipe literally couldn't be easier to make! You only need three ingredients for this sorbet: fresh strawberries, water and sugar! I got my sorbet started in a food processor, but you could probably use a strong blender, too. Strawberry Sorbet Ingredients 2 pounds fresh strawberries 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup Continue reading...

New Jersey to Vermont Road Trip – Part II (Stowe, Vermont)
Earlier this week, I wrote about my family's first leg of our summer vacation from New Jersey to Vermont. (The first two days of our trip we drove up to Saratoga Springs, N.Y., and visited the fun lakeside town of Burlington, Vt.) Today I am going to share a bit about the gorgeous resort we stayed at in Stowe, and about our first evening and first full day in Stowe. After my family spent a beautiful afternoon in Burlington, Vt., we headed east to Stowe, Vt., where we spent the rest of the week. The Lodge at Spruce Peak in Stowe, Vermont I booked a beautiful suite at The Lodge at Continue reading...
New Jersey to Vermont Road Trip – Part 1 (Saratoga Springs, N.Y., and Burlington, Vt.)
Earlier this summer, my family and I took a beautiful road trip from central New Jersey up to Vermont. We saw so many pretty sights! We also brought our 18-month-old Shih Tzu puppy with us. We had a great time! Today I'm sharing the first leg of our trip -- from New Jersey to Saratoga Springs, NY. Vermont is about 6 hours away from my family's home in Central New Jersey. I thought it'd be nice to split up the drive to and from Vermont. That way, we could visit some additional areas and spend fewer hours at a time in the car. For the way up, I picked the beautiful town of Continue reading...
