Are you willing to share dessert with your dining companions? Or do you want your own individual dessert whenever you dine out? Last week, I had lunch at the Pellana Prime Steakhouse in Peabody, one of my favorite restaurants. The three of us enjoyed a delicious meal, from the complementary Popovers & breads to the Clams Casino, from the Filet Mignon with Seared Scallops & Lobster Risotto to the Seared Swordfish. To top off the lunch, we also opted for a couple desserts.

“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”--St. Augustine As summer approaches, and you begin to make vacation plans, don't just make plans to visit the beach, to lay in the sun, relax and get a tan. Instead, why not visit a wine region, and immerse yourself in vineyards, grapes, fermentation, barrel rooms and wine tastings. When you return from a vacation of lying on a beach, you probably don't have many interesting stories to share.

I recently attended a media dinner, at Casa Romero, hosted by Daday Suarez, the CEO and founder of Alto Canto Tequila. Alto Canto was just launched last year in New York City, and now it was being launched in Boston as well. I was thoroughly impressed, on multiple levels, by the three tequilas from Alto Canto and they earn my strongest recommendation. And Daday was fascinating, passionate and personable, a fine spokesperson for his tequila.

What are your thoughts on Boxed Wines? Consider the organic, boxed wines of Alileo Wines. They're produced using traditional methods with grapes from Sicily. Most importantly, they are tasty and excellent values, the equivalent of about $10 a bottle. #wine https://t.co/bRyK2zZdKv

Wow! The Coconut Cream Pie from Nancy's Marshview Cafe in Salisbury was amazing! Lots of coconut in the filling, a light, creamy whipped cream topping, and a flaky pie crust. Can’t wait to try some of their other pies too. https://t.co/qH0U2ztbFV
