Po’ Boys & Pickles

A new location opened up on Federal in Portland, Maine. I liked the roasted beef with fried shrimp. Good combination.

Creemee

A new food truck started serving creemee, a soft serve treat from Vermont in Portland, Maine today. I love all things maple so had to check out Maine Maple Creemee Co. we tried the maple and blueberry in the waffle cones they make and would love to have it again. So good.

N to Tail

Delicious lunch in Portland, Maine at N to Tail.

Bread

I love bread. So I probably should learn to make it myself. Today I tried. I used the recipe from the book Bread Toast Crumbs. It came out decent for my first try with the Peasant bread recipe.

Baking

I tend to forget to eat bananas so I make banana bread, my boyfriend’s favorite.

Sweet!

Yesterday I had some time in the morning so I checked out Botto’s Bakery to get sweets to share with family. Everything looked good in the display case. I splurged and will have to go back to try more. It was very delicious and added them to my favorites. They are right in Portland on Washington Avenue.

Food Truck

I was happy to finally get to try something from the food truck Fishin’ Ships. Mmm the High Thai’d fish with fries was so yummy. The fish melted in my mouth and the fries went well with the Thai mayo sauce. I’d love to try more off their menu.

Mmmm Donuts

On my way home this weekend I took a chance and stopped in Kennebunkport to grab some donuts from Satellite Donuts to share with family. I thought they were great being baked instead of fried with fun toppings. You get a free donut with iced coffee too.

Bagel Bagel

On Friday I went to Portland to check out the new Forage Market location on Washington Avenue. I got the forage bagel sandwich on a salt bagel. The location is nice and open with lots of seating. You can buy fresh flowers too. I’m excited to go back and try more of their bagels. Their cold brew was very delicious too.

We took a trip to Rockland and I finally got to go to Project Puffin. I love puffins and watched the 20 minute video. It was cool to see how much progress has been made to bring the puffins back to the islands where they used to live.

We checked out the Draken Viking ship that is a replica that was built and sailing into Maine. It was cool to see and hear what it’s like living on the ship.

A stop in Rockland is not complete without a stop at Wasses Hotdogs.
