Our friendly neighbor to the northwest
*Disclaimer: This post will be the LAST non-CT spot, I promise!!! Unless, of course, we spot something wonderful and worth sharing outside the Nutmeg state limits...
Neil and I set out on the adventurous journey to Millerton, NY to have lunch at Harney & Sons Tea Shop and stroll around the cute little downtown area. SOO worth the hour and fifteen minutes!
We stopped first at Harney & Sons for lunch. It was Neil's first tea experience, and he had iced tea (which I told him still counts). Not only can you do a tea tasting ala wine tasting style, but the menu is phenomenal. They use as many local ingredients as possible, depending on the time of year, and there is a plentiful selection for both vegetarians (me) and omnivores (Neil). Later, we perused the shops downtown, which are unique and ecclectic. Our favorite was an antique shop full of random furniture, paintings, toys, you name it. After playing in the store for about an hour, I settled on an army supply bag, which I planned to refurbish (pictures to follow).
Stay tuned for pictures of our day! I can't seem to upload them, but I'm certain Cornelius can.
