There’s a great show on the Food Network called $40 a Day - the “host” (who also does 30 Minute Meals, which I love as well) goes to a location and has $40 for her meals in one day.

So for the episode on right now, she’s in Vermont and just went from Manchester where she had breakfast to Woodstock. But someone recommended a place in Quechee, so that’s where she went instead (for lunch).

Here’s why I mention this at all - when I lived in New Hampshire, I had a friend in Quechee (he’s still there). It’s a great little town on the border of Vermont and New Hampshire. It’s famous for the Quechee Gorge, which is HUGE and amazing. You drive on this little bridge over the gorge to actually get into the main town. It’s fantastic.

And my friend has this great authentic saltbox house not far from the Gorge. It’s so New England-y. Just thinking about it makes me miss it.
