Random New Jersey scenes
I just love downtown Summit. Here is a picture that doesn’t do it justice. There were a lot of interesting bistros in the downtown area too. Bistros seem to be more prevalent here than in Massachusetts. Piattino is where we met some of Ken’s college friends for lunch. Mr. Ken introduced me to videos way […]
A Room with a View

Or should I say an entire apartment with a view. Mr. Ken and I stayed in a lovely one bedroom apartment during our trip to Summit, New Jersey. The location was perfect since it was within walking distance to Summit Center. It was also in a quiet, pretty complex. Here is one view from the […]

Summit, New Jersey is a lovely town. Back in the late 80’s, I was living in New York City and wanted to move out, so I took the train to Summit to check out apartments. I fell in love with it at first sight. Summit reminded me of my hometown in Massachusetts. It really hasn’t […]
All roads lead to . . .
May 22, 2024
New Jersey! Bet you never guessed that. Well Mr. Ken and I ventured outside our house and took a trip to Summit, New Jersey. Mr. Ken grew up in Summit and believe it or not, I was born in Summit. I also lived there for a few years. This is where I met Mr. Ken. […]
Wi-Fi here, there and everywhere
May 15, 2024
Wi-Fi is good in your house; it is good in public places and it is good on airplanes. But in a garage for a sprinkler system? Well, Mr. Ken says absolutely! The workings of any sprinkler system escape me. Where is the on/off switch? Why are there so many buttons? Here is the old-school sprinkler […]
Everybody needs one . . . or two
May 8, 2024
Do you know what these things are? To me, they look like some fancy magic markers. According to Mr. Ken, they are the very important voltage testers. Say what? Why would someone want to test voltage? Maybe if you are an electrician. . . And of course, one needs two of these. Why? Just because. […]
Tea time redux
May 1, 2024
Tea seems to be my theme for this spring. My dear friend Lisa invited me to an afternoon tea at Fancy That. This is an adorable tea house and gift shop, based in an old Victorian mansion. We arrived and were led to a lovely, sun-drenched private room. It was as if we were having […]
Only a car guy . . .

So my dear Mr. Ken is the quintessential car guy. Last week, he had a bad cold. (And yes it really was a cold and not COVID; he did lots of COVID tests – all negative.) Last week was his birthday and on his birthday it was raining. Most people would take “their” special day […]
Tea time
April 10, 2024
I am slowly starting to emerge from COVID isolation/hibernation. My friend Lisa and I had a really fun experience a few weeks ago. We went to a tea tasting at the Golden Ball Tavern, a cool historic place in Weston, Massachusetts. From the Golden Ball Tavern website: “The Golden Ball Tavern Museum offers visitors a […]
A little Springtime zen anyone?
April 3, 2024
So I live in New England and spring is very slow to arrive. I am happy to see the crocuses and daffodils start to bloom. I was also excited to see pussy willows for sale at my local Trader Joe’s. I love pussy willows! They are such a happy, comforting sight. And to make things […]
