Scrumptious breakfast made right in front of you by Monica & Rock of White Cedar Inn. This was my first time staying at a bed & breakfast and it was quite different from chain hotels. Our room was cozy and clean, but the best part was the food. Clockwise from top: Tuscan scrambled eggs w/ bacon and biscuits, chocolate cheesecake bites, blueberry rhubarb cobbler, apple pie pancakes with sausage.
Portland has tons of craft breweries. We did some tours & tastings but I was relegated to tasting strawberry pop because I forgot my ID. Sigh! For dinner we went to Gritty McDuffs, a brew pub. Clockwise from top: Steak tacos, pulled-pork over sweet potato fries and maple sour cream (I give this points for creativity), lobster mac n’ cheese (fantastic), fried Maine shrimp. 








OMG! After about 6000 hits on our website from here, I backtracked and found you. Thank you, Jean, for showcasing our food so well!
Love your blog and I'm going to send the link to my 2 petite daughters.
Thanks,
Monica & Rock

Hi Jean! Your Chanel shades, is there a place online I can order those? I've been searching for those for so long and I found one on eBay for an auction, but I'm not sure it's authentic, seems like it from the pictures but I'm not sure if it really is… Please help! (=

Love the picture of y'all with the lobster! Your friend took some really great "couples" shots too!
xo, sam
@Cat in Calico Make sure it's not in winter! I hear winters are bitter cold there, plus you can't eat lobster outdoors on the bench : )
@Petite-ish Oh how neat! I like how they have a "theme" every week. Thanks for sharing : ) Btw, did you make it out for the Ann Taylor sale? I heard that Harvard Square has the best sale selection…tempting!
@Anonymous Oo, what did you order? Freeport is where we stayed, and they had these yellow ones, plus a very similar style in snakeskin which I liked as well!
@Margaret You know, I used to looove red lobster! I'm afraid to go back and eat it now that I'm spoiled by Maine lobbys : /
@Bravoe Runway @Deborah We do a lot of walking here in Boston and very little driving. It's a good pre- and post- meal workout! Deborah – the necklace is from Forever21.
@newpetite Speaking of Kelly, I think she has these adorable yellow woven peeptoes also from the Cole Haan outlet : )
@a rose Lol! Yes I am guilty. I have an awful lot of yellow in my closet. Finding the perfect shade of yellow is worth the wait! To be honest I don't love how bright yellow these are…much prefer a muted mustard yellow.
@zhi Hi Zhi – I'm using a Canon T2i.
@Cadrommy After eating lobster all day, we thought the lobster mac would be overkill but it ended up being our favorite dish at dinner! A must-try if you like both lobster and mac n' cheese.
@-C Burly fishermen, oh boy! Sounds like we missed out ; )
@jeweliette Lobsterfest?? Must look this up!
@Kelly I agree, I had a great first B&B; experience. Not cheaper though! It was actually quite a bit more than regular hotels, but we figured it'd be worth it for the "total experience" lol. And the outlets were a complete surprise to me. My friend warned me of an LL bean outlet, but I had no idea we'd be staying in a town where the main attraction is the outlet center!
@mirigoround Thank you! It's from Forever 21, taken from a pair of not-so-cute shorts : )
@Anonymous Thanks! He's 5'9."
The food looks…so scrumptious…I would love to eat authentic Maine lobster and crab cakes, not the Red Lobster kind. The couple photos are so beautiful!
I love all the food and your pics with bf! Especially the last one <3
BTW, if you call the Freeport factory outlet in Maine you can get the shoes sent to you for $10.95, which I did. 🙂
The most GORGEOUS geezers in Maine ;)). The last picture is my favorite… looks like you guys had a blast!
I know you'll prob both hate me for saying this… BUT YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE THE CUUUUTEST BABIES!!
You and Nick are a gorgeous couple!
Also, on an unrelated note, you totally would have rocked this nytimes style feature:
