Time to Take a Break

Beach roses along Route 1A in Rye, NH

June 6, 2020 All work and no play make a girl… cranky! Time to hang out and enjoy the spectacular seacoast and its bounty. 🙂 A drive along NH Route 1A through Rye and North Hampton was simply lovely, and very refreshing to the spirit. No kidding, everything in the house was dirty, grimy and discouraging, so today was a treat.

Wadleigh Falls in Lee, nearby to Sandy’s home, has a long history as a mill location beginning in the 1600’s. A nice afternoon walk…. I can’t decide which photo I like best. I sat in the shade on an old mill stone and was content.

Now for the bounty of the sea! Lobsters, mussels, shrimp, yum… Sandy is a superb cook (ok, we cheated just a bit by having the lobsters steamed for pick up at Market Basket). Cocktails tonight – experimenting with the proper proportions of a Negroni… guess we will have to try a few to decide. 🙂 We started by watching the surprisingly sexy Stanley Tucci (who knew?) mix it up on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7yV_ctYOVs

    I like Stanley Tucci’s show on CNN a lot. You’ve got great taste. The scenery and food look great. You were so lucky to have such a great host nearby.
