Those of you who follow my personal blog know that I have undertaken a project by which I am challenging myself to do things I’ve never done before. Some of these things are exciting and brave things. Others of these things are kind of, well, a bit silly, because they are the sorts of things […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
So, I’ve decided that for the purposes of Nommable, I have to stop just writing gushing mentions of places I eat and start actually talking about them in detail. Last night, my mother and I decided to take a little trip for dinner. It was just too hot to eat in the barn, so we […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The place: When I decided to explore the best ice cream in my home state of Connecticut, it was obvious where I’d have to start. The UCONN Dairy Barn is the retail branch of the University of Connecticut’s Creamery, which has been researching and educating on dairy-related matters for over a hundred years. They […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Place: SoCo Creamery. Last week, I went to the Berkshires of Western Mass to pit the best of their beverage-based ice creams against Connecticut’s in an epic battle to the death. TWO STATES ENTER! ONE STATE LEAVES! . . . Well, actually, I was just driving through. You can’t drive all that far in Connecticut […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Because there were many other delicious North Branfordy things to eat. Like potatoes! Mine was deliciously smothered in butter and cheese and broccoli and bacon, just as every […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Place: Praline’s Own Made is a small Connecticut chain. Their factory is in Wallingford, but they have eleven official stores around central CT and a few more places that serve their ice cream. I go to the cafe in Southington, which is a little shop with a few tables inside and a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Last week, Rose and I went to a restaurant called San Rocco that Rose found on Savored. Rose, apologies for writing this all up myself! I’ve been writing it up in fits and starts for over a week now and it just sort of ran away with itself. I got there a few minutes before […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Place: First, you’ll notice the line. Ferris Acres is well off the highway, past a few miles of quiet residential streets and farms. They take pride in being the last commercial dairy heard in Fairfield County. It would look like a normal farm, if it weren’t for the people – on a cool, drizzling night in early […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
