If you are a fan of Baker’s Chocolate in general or of German’s German’s Chocolate Cake in particular, this is where it all began, on the banks of the Neponset River in Dorchester MA. Established in 1765 as Hannon’s Best Chocolate, Baker’s has been a mainstay of the American culinary scene ever since and was manufactured here until 1965. Today we visited the Chocolate Village with an intent to enjoy dinner with our son at Yellow Door Taqueria but chose instead to dine at the Lower Mills Tavern. Excellent food and drink- try their Pastrami Rachel Sliders! And for us, excellent company too! A memorable evening.
Winter Magic in Medina
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
