June 25th 2022: Lavender Farm Fest, Holden

 Today, we had tickets to the Lavender Farm Fest at the Farm at SummitWynds in Holden.

Nice farm, although the lavender was shorter than we expected, but we still managed to get good pictures regardless.

We got a Lavender Lemonade, which was pretty good,

and took a wagon ride around the farm.

We also got a Hot Dog from Flippin the Bird BBQ, a food truck from Rutland providing food for the event.

Wanting to get some lavender beer to take home, we decided to head out to get Buzzsaw (Honey Lavender Blonde Ale)

from 7 Saws Brewing Company in town.

At this point, we decided to get lunch from Thai House of Holden nearby, a new Thai place that has taken over from the Local Tavern, which I visited a long time ago. Still recognize a bit of the old decor from then.

We got the Thai Iced Tea,

the Wonton Noodle Soup (Pork wonton in clear broth with rice noodles and topped with garlic oil, cilantro and scallions)

and the Drunken Noodles (wide noodles stir fried with ground chicken, egg, onion, carrots, green peppers and basil).

Not bad flavors, though typical Thai food.

For dinner, we decided to get takeout from NOLA Cajun Kitchen in West Boylston, this time getting the KIDS FRIED CATFISH (Served with regular fries and juice)

the Natchitoches Meat Pie

and the GATOR SAUSAGE PO BOY (Alligator and pork seasoned with authentic Cajun spices. Served with Cajun fries.)

Once again, really tasty food from this place. Really can't go wrong here.
