White Sangria Recipe – Tasty & Easy to Make
Jan 29th
Here is an easy white sangria recipe that I came up with back about 6 years ago. The mix freezes well and it also makes great ice cubes.
You can pick these nectars up in any grocery store in the in the International Food section.
- 1 can Goya Guava Nectar
- 1 can Goya Pear Nectar
- 1 can Goya Mango Nectar
- 1 can Passion Fruit Nectar
- Chablis wine “Jug wine”
Mix all nectars up together and shake well. Fill a red wine goblet 3/4 full of ice cubes, fill glass 3/4 full of Chablis wine & top off with nectar mixture. Stir well.
This recipe has turned non drinkers into white Sangria Addicts. This is the first time I ever gave out his recipe and it is very easy! Enjoy!
I have a red wine sangria that is more complicated and the recipe can be found in

Providence, RI – Downtown Attractions You Won’t Want to Miss
Jan 9th
So many people tell me that they drive right through Rhode Island when they’ve traveled to New England. Big mistake. Providence, RI is a city worth visiting. Great Italian food, seafood, museums, shopping, historical buildings, ghosts….how can you resist? Can you tell that I have a passion for this city? I’m a native who now lives in Southern California. I make several trips “back home” each year and bring you the latest “must see” Providence destinations.

Newport, Rhode Island – Enjoy by Sea and Land
Jan 5th
Newport, Rhode Island has the largest deep water port on the eastern coast of the United States. In colonial times, this city was a very busy trading port, with ships coming in from around the world. As a deep water port, the various sailing ships could come right into the docks to unload, without fear of hitting bottom. During colonial times, it was easier to travel to Newport by water than by land…..read more…click the title..

Iggy’s Doughboys & Chowder House, A Little Rhody Tradition
Jan 5th
To me, summer in Rhode Island means Iggy’s Chowder and Clamcakes. I make it to Iggy’s in Oakland Beach, Warwick at least 6 times over the summer season. Waiting in line for 20 minutes to order and another 20 minutes waiting for your food, it can take up my afternoon noon in the summer months because I savor every bite of my food while enjoying a great view of Narragansett Bay. The waiting just makes it taste so much better!

Weiners – Rhode Fill For Road Warriors
Jan 5th
Weiners are reddish ropes of meat consisting of pork and veal, squared at the ends for a snug hug inside a steamed weiner bun-a bread bunting with crusted sides. Ordering weiners “all the way” implies a burial in meat sauce made from a secret family recipe, topped with onions, mustard, and celery salt-the top dog of all ingredients which imparts a distinct flavor. Small in size, three is definitely the way to go for your Rhode fill.
The Herreshoff Marine Museum, One of the Great New England Museums
Jan 5th
The Herreshoff Marine Museum in Bristol, Rhode Island, is hallowed ground for sailors worldwide as one of New England’s greatest museums.
It comprises a number of Herreshoff boats, historical and family exhibits, and the pinnacle of sailing races, the America’s Cup Hall of Fame.
To some people, freedom comes in the form of an automobile or airplane, but to sailors, sitting at the helm of a sailboat, be it a sailing dinghy or 12-meter, the freedom involved trumps that provided by cars and any other form of transportation going away.
Finding the Best Downtowns in New England
Jan 5th
Bringing up the rear, but still finishing as one of our favorite downtowns is Bristol, R.I. Known as the “most patriotic town in America,” Bristol has American flags displayed throughout town, a red, white and blue painted median strip in its downtown and the oldest Fourth of July celebration in America (it’s truly a spirited celebration!). Bristol seems like the proverbial “all-American” town where everyone seems to know each other, and stores that serve residents and tourists, alike (books, toys, photo supplies, coffee shops, and other delightful local small town storefronts).

How to Promote a Business, A Free Easy Way to Drive Sales to Your Cash Register
Jan 4th
There are a lot of ways to promote your business online that are free. The only catch is you need to learn how to use these free ways for them to work. You can’t just go blindly into it not knowing what your doing or how to do it. If you do you are sure to fail and just plain waste your time.
Lets say for example that I am writing an article about my business and submit it to an article website like this one to get published. I could run into problems and it will most likely get denied because most, but not all article websites, don’t allow direct promotions via press releases or any kind of sales pitch in any of the articles.
You might be asking yourself, how in the world do I promote my business if I can’t pitch it?……….read more

Eyes Of The World
Right outside this lazy summer home
you ain’t got time to call your soul a critic no.
Right outside the lazy gate of winter’s summer home,
wond’rin’ where the nut-thatch winters,
wings a mile long just carried the bird away.
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it’s beaches, it’s homeland and thoughts of it’s own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin’ brings,
But the heart has it’s seasons, it’s evenin’s and songs of it’s own.
There comes a redeemer, and he slowly too fades away,
And there follows his wagon behind him that’s loaded with clay.
And the seeds that were silent all burst into bloom, and decay,
and night comes so quiet, it’s close on the heels of the day.
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it’s beaches, it’s homeland and thoughts of it’s own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin’ brings,
But the heart has it’s seasons, it’s evenin’s and songs of it’s own.
Sometimes we live no particular way but our own,
And sometimes we visit your country and live in your home,
sometimes we ride on your horses, sometimes we walk alone,
sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own.
Wake up to find out that you are the eyes of the world,
the heart has it’s beaches, it’s homeland and thoughts of it’s own.
Wake now, discover that you are the song that the mornin’ brings,
But the heart has it’s seasons, it’s evenin’s and songs of it’s own.
