Portsmouth

Today my college roommate C and I went up to Portsmouth NH. It was awesome. We went a few years ago right before Christmas and had such a great time we said we'd do it annually. Since life never goes according to plan, we didn't go last year. This year however, we did.

We had specific places that we wanted to visit and go beyond where we went before. We found "our" ever so convenient but free parking spot. Walked to our favorite store and found that it was no longer there. We were totally bummed but kept walking knowing it was probably because of the bad economy.

We crossed the street and to our suprise, they just moved! The owner remembered us too. He gave us a wine testing and we walked out of there with 3 bottles each. Next was our second favorite store and after another wine tasting, we both both another bottle of wine.

The remainder of the day consisted of walking in and out of small, unique stores. C bought new boots that she loved so much, she wore them right after she bought them. Same goes for me for my wicked awesome and much needed hat.

For lunch we ate at the Gaslight Company. Delicious pizza bar with a beer for dessert.

The day is over and now I have to bake brownies and cookies in prep for the festivities of Christmas.
