I had been stalking Nauti Cow for its opening in Oak Bluffs. Found where Slip 77 was across from Nancy’s Restaurant, it opened it’s doors mid- August. Friends went, and were hooked. They could not wait for me to try it. Ice cream is not necessarily my thing, but my kids sure do love it.  The Nauti Cow Difference Nauti Cow is ...

So, many of you may know that I have been on “stay-cation.” Don’t get too excited, I do still work a bit daily, but I do make sure to sprinkle something special in daily. Saturday mornings are great for going out to breakfast right? How about adding a little Island twist to this. I got my hubby on board for a little boat trip to V...

I cannot tell you how many times I have driven by John’s Fish Market/Sandy’s Fish “N” Chips on State Road in Vineyard Haven. Heck, I used to live right up the street, yet I had never gone. However, recently I have been hearing about how good the food is. My friend Angie has told me that the “Obama Burger” is one of the best o...

Even though there is so much to do down-Island, I highly suggest sprinkling in some up-Island adventures. It can feel like a whole different world when you cross that West Tisbury town line. One of my favorite things to do is dine at the Aquinnah Shop Restaurant right on the Cliffs. There are other great spots too, like Cliffhange...

There are some nights that call for something a little extra special, and Garde East in Vineyard Haven offers just that. The space, located right on the Vineyard Haven harbor is one of the most beautiful places to dine on the Island. Watching the ferries come and go, evening chasing away the sun, all while dining on truly delicious...

It was always fun to stop by the Katama General Store on the way to South Beach during the Summer months. Grab a bite to eat, maybe something to drink, and then on you went. However, now I feel like the Katama General Store is a destination, and I am kind of in love. Owners Jackie and Doug Korell, have created a whole new Katama G...

During the Summer months, Circuit Avenue in Oak Bluffs is packed with people, especially children. So, it seemed to make sense to use the outside space on the back of Down Island for something family friendly. Introducing Amity Candy Co. where you will find small batch, handcrafted sweet treats. It’s not a candy store in the usual...

Whether here for the day, month or 365 days a year, it’s always nice to collect mementos to remind you of special times on the Martha’s Vineyard. A fun way to do just that is to sign up for one of Stefanie Wolf Designs earring parties. I am guessing that you have seen her handmade jewelry at any number of flea markets and sho...

I love a reason to go to The Beach Plum Inn. When I heard that island chef John Thurgood was going to offer breakfast at the Inn daily this Summer, I knew I would find my way there. Soon after, my friend Jessie who works in Chilmark, suggested we go try out breakfast at the Inn. Of course I jumped on the opportunity to spend time ...

“The Earth Laughs In Flowers,” observed writer Ralph Waldo Emerson, and that’s a quote that can be certainly apply to the joy and laughter we felt on Farm Field Sea’s Bloomin Fantastic Flower Workshop at Morning Glory Farm. How many times have you bought flowers from the farmers’ market or Morning Glory Farm, and wondered how...
