Our Summer Travels have taken us to Vermont where we're visiting our friends with a maple farm. But, just an hour south of their home in a town called Waterbury is a strip of road called Enticement Alley. All around this area you're sure to find lots of tasty treats. Let's go for a visit!

Cheddar Garlic Biscuit taste test and comparison - Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Red Lobster, and Homemade!
It's time for another yummy taste test!
I sometimes get asked where I come up with my different taste test ideas. Taste test ideas can come from pretty much anywhere. Friends, advertisements, or just walking down the aisles of the grocery store. This particular one came as a result of NOT being able to find something that I was always used to buying.
Every once in a while, I like to make a night-time snack of garlic cheddar biscuits. I'm used to seeing the $1 bag of Betty Crocker drop biscuit mix, but for some reason, couldn't find it in the grocery store. Instead I was seeing this new Pillsbury bag. And then another more expensive option of Red Lobster biscuits. Hmm.

2024 Summer Trip - Vermont and the Couture's Maple Shop - 2024/08/02
Today is another travel day and this time we're going some place really special! Way back in our first year of RVing in New Hampshire, we met Jake and Pauline Couture. I was still new to driving the RV and the campsite we were visiting was very wooded. I was having a hard time getting the RV backed into the campsite and Jake offered to help out. I was very thankful and baked them a fresh loaf of bread to say thank you. They then invited us to come visit them at their maple farm and dairy in Northern Vermont. It's one of our favorite memories of RVing.
Well, wouldn't you know it, we're traveling in the North East and we saw that they are part of the Harvest Host program, where RVers can come park on their property. Let's go visit the Coutures!

2024 Summer Trip - Six Flags Darien Lake - 2024/07/28
It's just a day until my birthday, and the kids were wondering what I might like as a gift for it. Hmm. Well, as we drove to our RV site, I noticed the exit also pointed to a Six Flags park nearby. I do like roller coasters... So, the night before, I signed myself, Ian, and Alli up for a monthly membership to Six Flags! For just $8 a month (minimum 12 months), we can visit ANY Six Flags Park! Looks like if you go to a more popular Six Flags (New Jersey for instance), it's $10/mo.
This summer trip just got a little more interesting!
