A couple of weeks ago, my friend Scott Mullin told me I had to try these amazing baked doughnuts at the Scottish Bakehouse in Vineyard Haven.  Being a doughnut enthusiast and never having one that was baked, it was my mission to get one.

The beloved Flying Horses Carousel opens for the 2013 season Easter weekend.  This is a big event for the locals, and will most likely be well attended.  It has been compared to the opening of the Dairy Queen.  I know that I have been looking forward to this since its season ended last Fall.  Somehow, I spend mo...
