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.

June 8 2018: Hiking from Easton to Cumberland

I started out this morning in the town of Easton, going for a short hike at Sheep Pasture, which is more of a farm for kids, than anything else.

The path I took here is shown below in pink,

The pond here was overgrown with plants though.

Next, I headed to Norton,

Mansfield Bank, 225 West  Main Street

going for a hike at Blueberry Knoll, where the path I took is shown below in pink.

Once again, the supposed water body here was all grass.

From here, I passed through North Attleborough

Senior Center

on the way to Cumberland RI, where I went on a hike on the section of the Warner Trail in town starting from near Camp Ker Anna on 500 Reservoir Road.

The path I took here is shown below in pink.

A better trail map of the area can be found on openstreetmap.org, while the guide here serves as a good description of the path I took. Unfortunately, the viewpoint I was looking for was nowhere to be found at the top of the ledge area due to the tall trees.

I had to go off trail on the way back in order to get a decent view of the reservoir

which I could already get from the road without hiking anyway. What a waste of time.

Disappointed, I called it a day, getting a quick bite from El Dorado Mexican Grill, a new Mexican restaurant in Worcester which has taken the place of Tacos Parilla Mexicana, which I visited once a long time ago. Not much change in decor, which is why it still looked somewhat familiar.

I got the Pierna Adobada Taco,

which was not bad, but nothing special.

February 1st 2015: Watching the Super Bowl with Friends

I started out this freezing morning with breakfast at Leggos,  a diner at 120 North Franklin Street in Holbrook, getting a cup of Hot Chocolate,

A Handmade Strawberry Crepe

And a Don's Tropical Pancake ( Raspberry and Mango).

The fruit in the pancake was a little sour,  but the Crepe was really delicious.

After breakfast, I headed into Abington,

Before heading to Easton to get some pizza from the Pizza Depot, getting the Ring of Fire Pizza (feta, Pineapple,  chicken,  jalapeños,  3 cheese blend)

And the Roman Bone In Wings.

The Pizza wasn't that good, and neither were the wings.

I decided to get more food from Pizza Market in Sharon, getting the Buffalo Mac and Cheese Pizza

And the Steak and Egg Sub.

Once again, Nothing special,  the Pizza tasting a little weird as well.

I had to wait a little for the Sharon Police and Fire Museum to open, but it was worth it, as it is the best collection of police and fire department stuff I have seen.

From here, I tried to visit the Little Red Shop Museum in Hopedale,

But it was closed today Unfortunately.

With that, I went to collect some pizza from Papa Gino's at 341 Cochituate Road in Framingham, then went to my friend's place for the rest Of the night To watch the Super Bowl. I'm really glad the Patriots won. Finally.
