So far, our honeymoon has been a gentle collection of dinners here, lunches there, and a lot of relaxing around the house. This particular dinner is at Longfellow at The Evangeline in Grand Pré, Nova Scotia.

If there’s one thing our two Goldens Mersey and Ivan have in common with Michael, it’s that they love playing in the mud.

We came away with a jar of dill pickles, and they are absolutely wonderful. A little sweeter than the Anne’s Preserves dills that we always get at the Falmouth Farm Market.
