Things To Do Near You

Hello everybody! I had so much fun writing about restaurants in my previous blog post, that I have decided that I am going to do it again today! Today, I will be writing about restaurants in Nassau County in Long Island. For those of you who are wondering why I chose such an oddly specific place, it’s because I have a lot of cousins who either live in or have lived in Nassau County, so this is kind of my tribute to them. I will go over some of the interesting foods on their menus, in hopes that if any of you reading should find yourselves in Nassau County, you will want to visit them. The first restaurant is The Shed Restaurant in Westbury. Some of the interesting foods on their menu include Buttermilk Biscuits, Skillet Macaroni & Cheese, Fried Pickles, Fried Calamari, Reuben Sandwich, Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich, Roast Beef Melt, Lobster Roll, Chicken & Waffles, Shrimp & Chips, Sirloin Steak, Ice Cream, Waffle Ice Cream Sundae, Banana Bread Pudding, Cookies, and Flourless...

Hello everyone! For today’s blog post, I’m going to do something I’ve never done before. I’m going to write about a place that I have never been before and don’t really know anything about, the Greenwich Polo Club. If you’re wondering how this idea came about, it was from one of my friends who said that I would love it and would have incredible things to write in my blogs. So I am going to take her advice and write about a place I have never been to before, learn about it along the way, and hopefully by the end of it, this place that I have driven past many times will become a place that I and all of you reading will want to go to.  I feel the best way to start writing about it is by explaining its history. It was first established in 1981 by industrialist and art collector Peter Brant, who also started the White Birch Polo Team, and I recently found out that either him or the father of the current owner is married to my friends’ aunt. Since it opened, the club has expanded from on...

Hello everyone!  Today I am going to do something very interesting, and write about an event that I have already written about before! On Saturday, I went to the Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow Farmers Market, also known as the TaSH, and a conversation that I had with my friend about it made me think I should let everyone reading know about it again. In this post, I will be discussing all the vendors that participate in it, in hopes that any or all of them interest you enough to go check it out. The first vendor is A D’Zine from Dobbs Ferry, which makes and sells handcrafted jewelry. The next vendor is Agape Olive Oil from Port Chester, and its name is self explanatory as to what it sells. The next vendor is Ambrosia Juicery from The Bronx, which makes and sells healthy juices and smoothies. The next vendor is Artigiani del Gelato from Poughkeepsie, which makes and sells a variety of gelato and sorbet. 
The next vendor is Ash Hopper from Warwick in Orange County, which makes and sells ...

As some of you might remember, last year I wrote about the outdoor summer concert series in Stamford Downtown called Alive At Five. Well, back in November of last year, it was announced that it would never be returning. I was disappointed by this news, but also hopeful that the city of Stamford would come up with an exciting new event. A few weeks ago, Hey Stamford announced that a new event would be coming to Mill River Park called Summer In The Park, which would be happening on three weekends in July. I didn’t know what to expect at this point in time, as I didn’t know if they would want to go big for its first year, or if they would want to take a year off after cancelling Alive At Five before going big again next year. A few days ago, I found my answer, and it was announced that this event is going to be one of the biggest events Stamford has had in a while! In this blog post, I will be discussing everything that is in store for the event this year, in hopes that it will encourage ...
