They say the best form of advertising and marketing is word-of-mouth. And it is true. One of the topics of discussion in more than one of my Masters of Marketing degree classes was how valuable it is when your customers “sell” your product/service for you. That entails them telling family and friends about your product/service […]
I’ve stopped counting my “health weeks,” whereas life in quarantine has turned into counting quarantine days. But so far life in quarantine has been just fine. I’d say my family and I are one of the lucky ones and so we are just fine. My whole approach to this, as it is with other things […]
Today is my birthday. Yes, yes, it is. The sun is out, it’s a glorious day, and it feels like Sunday. But it’s Monday. But now a days what day of the week it is doesn’t really matter. Instead we now count what quarantine day it is. Well, this quarantine day is also my birth-day […]
My husband ate all of the chocolate chips in the house. Guess that means he won’t be getting any chocolate chip cookies during this quarantine! Maybe that’ll teach him… maybe not. But I was feeling … motivated? Bored? Inspired? Needing to create something? Sure, one of those.

I left the house for the second time since we self-quarantined – don’t worry, I didn’t see anyone or touch anything. (And to clarify, when I say that “I left the house,” I mean that I left our property – like went in the car and physically left the property and went out in the […]

I went back to Pinterest and found some rolls that looked pretty […]
According to quite a few doctors and cardiologists that I’ve spoken with, when it comes to a “diet” (and that’s not ‘diet’ as in you’re reducing the caloric intake and exercising to lose weight, but rather ‘diet’ as in how and what you eat) they all say that the best one for long-term health is […]
It was Quarantine Day 2 over here at my house and so of course it was time to start baking. What else do you do when you’re home? Bake or cook, of course! I don’t consider myself an expert at any of it, but I can make a pretty good soup and I can bake […]
We here at Main Street have known the fine folks over at Jam Food Shop in Sharon, CT, for a number of years now and we certainly have our favorite dishes there. Although Jam is located within the Sharon Market, Jam is its own experience!
For those of you who are familiar with Jam, you might […]
I had meant to write about 52 Main’s fall menu last October – when I went there and fell in love with some of their new items. But life happens and I let it slip. But as each day of March passes us by, life gets more and more strange, and we learn to deal […]
