At the Cormorant in Newburyport, I tried their Bourbon Cream Soda ($10), a simple cream soda, bourbon and bitters. And I was impressed! Refreshing, tasty, and not overly sweet. A great summer drink, and now I'll have to make it at home.

Sorry North End, but there's no evidence that you created Scali Bread. Instead, Fitchburg has that claim to fame, back to the Sunlight Bakery in 1941. In fact, throughout the 1940s, the only references to Scali Bread were from that Fitchburg bakery.

Want ideas for a culinary day trip? Here's an itinerary for the Ipswich area, including bakeries, farms, a clam shack, candy shop, breakfast spots, a fish market, and more. It's one my own favorite day trips, especially on Fridays.

This weekend, for my Birthday, I'll be opening this unique Palo Cortado Sherry, which is an average age of 130-150 years old. It helps you feel young when you can open a wine that is older than you. Or even two to three times older than you. #wine
