Our friends Ali and Pete (Congratulations!) had a wedding in Queeche, VT a little over a week ago. I had my bachelorette weekend there and was excited to have AC with me this time around. We hiked the gorge and strolled the streets of Woodstock, VT. It was a misty autumn weekend which made the nuptial affair very romantic (I am not at all biased against a rainy-day wedding). Wedding aside, the highlight of our weekend was visiting Simon Pearce (a few times). It is the ultimate in hand crafted pottery and glass.
I was in pottery heaven. The restaurant does absolute justice to the pottery as well. We were seated at the best table in the house (No. 2) with the view below. The restaurant is progressive- recycling its cooking oil and sending kitchen scraps to a chicken farm for feed.
Doing a little reading for this post I came across a wonderful blog, The District Domestic. The recipes, chef interviews, and restaurant trips she writes about are thoughtful and her blog is a feast for the eyes. In her words she wants to "share my passion for incredible food, beautiful days in the garden and fine homekeeping."
