  1. LOve the vest! My son John lives just a few houses from Zingermans, I don't think he's ever eaten there, being poor+vegan+student and all. I love Kerry Town and would move there in a heart beat. I was there on WEd. but didn't make it to the art fest... too hot for all of us. I did make it to Trader Joes though! John said there is a new vintage clothing store in town, owned by a seamstress from NYC. If you haven't found it yet, I can get the name of it for you.
    Have a fabulous weekend! t. xoxoox

  6. Theresa -- I know Zingermann's has a ton of vegetarian options, but I must say I don't know about vegan - esp. since one of the things they focus on is cheese!!

    You may have to try it despite John - there sandwiches and desserts are ridiculous!!

    I haven't heard about the new vintage store either - what's the name of it??

    Brianne - I just die for their cheeses and breads - so good!! Have you ever sampled their balsamic vinegars?? We've never dropped the $$ on some of the older ones, but even just a little sample is wonderful!
