Cold, dreary fall weather has arrived in New England. Sandals and sundresses have been packed away and replaced with turtlenecks and sweaters. Even if a weekend day is filled with activities, you might have a chill when you return home.
Or at least I do. I adore the colors of fall. I enjoy the crisp smell of the air. I love to hear the calls of the geese heading south. However, once fall has arrived, it seems that the tips of my fingers and toes will not thaw until the spring.
So, even after a Saturday afternoon filled with shopping and dinner

Beer Review: Gritty’s, Halloween Ale
by J Frazzetta on October 28th, 2008 | BeerTap/Bottle: Bottle
While kids are terrorizing the streets dressed as zombies or Dick Cheney, create some terror of your own with Gritty’s Halloween Ale. Actually, the only thing that will scare you is how similar this ale tastes to others.
Having never tried anything by Gritty’s before, in retrospect, this may have been a bad first choice. If you want to get the full measure of a brewery, try one of their flagship beers, not a seasonal brew.
Martini Fit for a Jack O’Lantern

While it may have been a while since you donned a costume and went door to door seeking treats, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the festive feel of Halloween. Of course, as you have matured, you may no longer seek the thrill of a candy bar, but perhaps you appreciate the taste of a well made cocktail.
Luckily, my friend shared a perfect Halloween martini recipe with me last weekend. With a few couples together for a fall cookout, she created a drink that could be camouflaged in a pumpkin field. Not only did this drink have an excellent autumn

Liquid Skittles

A few months ago, I wrote about a special bartender that we like to visit on a weekend martini crawl. As with any busy restaurant, he is not the only bartender there. Luckily for this restaurant's owners, they have another bartender that is equally as talented. Though we have not known Jeff as long as we have known Jared, we have come to learn that his drinks are as perfectly made and delicious.
On a recent weekend night, the bar was incredibly busy. Both Jared and Jeff were taking orders, making drinks, and delivering them with a smile as quickly as
