VT getaway

On Saturday Eric and I took off to Vermont for the weekend. We left around 11:30 after dropping the dog off, going to the bank, getting things ready....we arrived about 2:30 in VT and we first stopped at King Arthur Flour Store in Norwich. It was a huge disappointment to us...we thought they would have live baking shows and a lot more to do. There were some unique flour mixes but didn't inspire us to go and buy one. We went around the store twice but only browsed. It did inspire me to bake some bread though so hopefully in a few days I will bake some bread...we will see.. That was our first time there. We decided to re vist the cider mill and Ben and Jerry's.. We were at both places about 3 years ago and had a good time.
So we stopped at Cold Hollow Cider Mill. We did get inspired to buy 2 1/2 pounds of VT honey for 9.50 and a jar of some yummy Honey Mustard. We had a coupon for a cider donut and we shared one too. After that we went down the road to Ben and Jerry's ice cream factory. We were going to go on the tour but we decided to not spend the money to see it again since they weren't manufacturing either and we already saw it but we did want to stop and get some ice cream at their store. We split a cookie dessert we got Half baked as the ice cream. YUM! We also stopped at the Cabot Annex to sample some of the cheese and browse. We headed to our hotel and it was beautiful...The lobby amazed us. We got there and chilled for a few hours and then went around to look for a place to eat. Somehow we ended up at Friendlys . It was already too late to eat dinner and we didn't want to travel far and get lost. We came back to the hotel and watched a little bit of Titanic and fell asleep.

Sunday we got up and stopped at Dakin Farm store. There were also a lot of samples to try and we did end up buying Strawberry Jam. Nextdoor was a Barnes and Nobles store and it was so huge. There was tons of clearance but we managed to get out without spending money. Next stop was to get lunch..the night before we saw in a visitor book a place to have pizza and play indoor mini golf. It was a fun place. We had our pizza and wings and played a round of indoor mini golf..It was so fun. Our last stop in VT was at Green Mountain Coffee Factory. We got to see a film about how coffee is picked and harvested and then produced. We had to get a cup of coffee before leaving. Green Mountain is delicious but my stomach doesn't like it. I do have to say we did have a good time together and it was a perfect place to go for a short amount of time.
I will be back for pics soon...Camera is in our car and Eric has it!
