Tis’ the season for a cozy Christmas read! 📖🎄✨

I’ve been currently reading A Ferry Merry Christmas by Debbie Macomber and it’s a delightful read for this time of the year that is sure to put you in the holiday spirit!

Another holiday-themed book that I finished reading recently:

Christmas at the Nantucket Restaurant by Pamela Kelley which follows the Nantucket Restaurant series (another favorite!) set on the beautiful New England island of Nantucket.

In each book, you’ll find themes of romance, community, kindness, self discovery, family, and hope.

Highly recommend both of these titles if you are searching for your next favorite read this holiday season! 📖

Postcards from my day trip to Burlington, Vermont! From a scenic lakeside cruise on Lake Champlain aboard the Spirit of Ethan Allen III to taking in the sights of the city to taking a stroll through the quaint and vibrant Church Street Markeplace.

Foodies will enjoy the wide array of dining options, there’s plenty of shopping, and everything is very walkable and accessible by bus or trolley. Walk or bike the trails along the waterfront and take in the beautiful views of Lake Champlain and the stunning Adirondack Mountains of nearby New York on the horizon.

Whether you’re a local or traveler, Burlington truly has it all! 💚

Fun fact: Vermont is translated from the French language which is Green Mountain! 🌲⛰️

Greetings from Vermont, The Green Mountain State! 💚🌲⛰️
