December 30th 2022: The Children's Museum in Easton

This morning, we were not able to get a seat at The Farmer's Daughter in Easton, so we settled for the Stonebridge Cafe in Brockton, at which we were able to get the last table.

We got the Fish and Chips (Deep fried haddock with tartar sauce. Served with French fries and coleslaw.)

and the Eggs Florentine ( Poached eggs with spinach on an English muffin topped with hollandaise sauce and home-fried potatoes).
The fish was decent, and the eggs benedict was very good, along with crispy home fries, the mark of a good diner. Good thing The Farmer's Daughter was busy as usual I guess.

From here, we decided to go check out the Children's Museum in Easton. Pretty small museum I must say, although our little one had a lot of fun here.







From here, we headed to Jordan's Furniture nearby for some blueberry muffins, where a branch of Montilio's Bakery has opened up as well. From here, we got the Eclair,
and the Beef and Pea Arancini.

Just alright in my opinion.

Overall, a very fun day in the Easton area.

December 22nd 2015: Christmas Spirit in Avon and Attleborough

I got some breakfast fare from Edgemere Diner, a small town diner in Shrewsbury, getting the Caprese Omelet (Fresh mozzarella and tomatoes,  finished with fresh basil).

Novel concept, but doesn't work well for me.

After work,  we headed to the Jordan's Furniture in Avon to check out the Enchanted Village and Laser LITE show. Nothing has changed from last year,

but thankfully my other half enjoyed her time there,  especially the laser show, and of course,  who could forget the Blueberry muffins.

Dinner was at Amelia's, a pretty upscale Italian restaurant in Stoughton.

We got the Cedar Plank Salmon (Rosemary apple puree, fingerling potatoes, cipollini onions, frisée & mustard aioli)
and the Sacchetti (Stuffed pasta – little sack shape) Pear and Mascarpone cheese - Shaved Pecorino Romano & mostarda di frutta).
The salmon was perfectly cooked, going really well with the apple sauce and mustard. The pasta was a little hard, but overall, an interesting concept, along with the 2 sauces which brought all the individual components together.

Excellent meal, but the night wasn't over yet. We headed to the La Salette Shrine in Attleborough, where the Christmas lights were in full swing.

The place has a museum with Nativity sets from all around the world as well.
Sadly we had to leave as the place was about to close. It was a nice night enjoying Christmas lights though.
