A New Playground - Robey Playground

The sun has been staying out later than usual and we finally had our first 70* day, which means it's time to start playground hunting again.

We found a great playground in Needham at the Newman Elementary School. Because it's at a school, you can not visit during school hours when school is in session, but if you can get there in the Summer or for an after dinner session, it's a lot of fun.





The playground is in the back of Newman Elementary school, located at 1155 Central Ave, Needham, MA 02492. Be sure to stop at Cookie Monstah when you're done!

The Alice at The Merchant, Boston

 If you know anything about me, you know how much I Love Alice in Wonderland. Fun fact - my boyfriend bought me the most amazing 1930 Illustrated edition of Alice in Wonderland and it's one of my all time favorite possessions. So you can imagine my excitement when I saw the Alice Experience taking place in Boston.



















The event took place at the Merchant in Boston, located at 60 Franklin St, Boston, MA 02110,a nd was everything I could have hoped for.

The show had us solving riddles to get the ingredients to make our drinks and a trial with the Red Queen. They offered mocktails to those of us not drinking, and had vegan and gluten free options as well!
Seats are $45 a piece and include a welcome drink, 2 bespoke drinks and an “Eat Me” cookie. Shows run until April 30th so grab your tickets soon!
