Edgartown, Massachusetts is a quintessential, seaside, New England town located directly on Martha's Vineyard. After taking the ferry to the island, Edgartown is about a 20 minute ride away. Some people might also enjoy biking from the ferry into town and there are many bike routes along the island.

A morning must-stop to grab a coffee or bagel for me is Espresso Love. There is a large patio to sit outside to enjoy your breakfast, along with many options for lunch if you choose to grab a salad or sandwich to bring down to the beach.

For a great smoothie, stop by Smooth Moves. My favorite smoothie there is 'Chill' Mark, which has kale and spinach, along with mango and pineapple. The cold, refreshing drink is a great way to start your morning or to enjoy after a workout.

Take advantage of the sunny day and spend the late-morning to early-afternoon down at Lighthouse Beach. This small and quiet beach is a perfect place to take in the views of the lighthouse, along with the Harbor View Hotel.

Moving forward, be sure to spend the rest of the afternoon walking around downtown and shopping. Some must-stop by stores include Vineyard Vines, Backwater Trading Company, Vintage Jewelry, Island Company, and Lily Pulitzer.

For dinner, The Seafood Shanty has a great deck with amble outdoor seating. A delicious place to go for fried or grilled fish. Another suggestion for a bit fancier of a dinner is Atlantic, which is also sits right on the water. A favorite dish of mine from there are the Slow Baked Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes... Yum!

To conclude your adventure filled day in Edgartown, Massachusetts be sure to stop by Murdock's Fudge, along with Mad Martha's Ice Cream as they are the perfect places to stop at for dessert after dinner for the ultimate homemade treat!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
