Hello Tumblr World,
So I apologize for going MIA - life got busy and I became a bad blogger. However, I’m back and have made the decision to move Boston Bliss over to Wordpress. I’ll still be posting a few things here and there on this site, but for more in-depth posts, be sure to check out Boston Bliss here: www.bostonblissdotcom1.wordpress.com (just have a little patience with me while I learn the ropes with wordpress, and get the blog back up and running)!

Love Disney’s animated short film, Paperman - enjoy!
Tis the season of giving….& baking!
I came across BakingForGood.com after seeing an article about the website, which donates 15% of net proceeds from your order to a charity of your choice (every month they choose a non-profit in all different categories to donate to). There were 2 cookie gifts that stood out the most for me right now: 1) Hurricane Sandy Relief cookies and 2) the custom image cookies!! Perfect idea for any dinner party with friends; everyone gets a treat & you get to give back to a great cause!
Music to my ears….
Recently I’ve been on a concert frenzy…. to date I’ve got 5 upcoming music festivities (2 of those in the summer but I count them now since my bank account is currently feeling the pain). First up is VHS or Beta (Nov. 29th), then Grace Potter and the Nocturnals (Dec 1st.), in January I have Emile Sande (Jan. 15th) - PS, for anyone who hasn’t heard her music, check it out on itunes NOW, you won’t be disappointed!
Then this summer my favorite country boys come back into town: Jason Aldean & Miranda Lambert (July 12th) and Kenny Chesney & Eric Church (Aug. 24th). For any other New England country lovers that are looking for concerts up here, I constantly check out Hard Rock cafe as well as Tobey Keith’s Bar in Foxboro for updates. They usually have pretty good ones in the winter/spring and the tickets are wicked affordable!
Tello & Rose
I came across this etsy shop through a good friend of mine (his wife is “Rose”), and immediately became enamored with the nautical-style jewelry line! At first I thought the bracelets and necklaces would make the ideal accessories for the summer, and recently I discovered she has released a new fall line! Check out the shop here:

As you all know, Red Sox season is quickly approaching!!! Thank the baseball gods - although many are questioning the outlook for the sox this season, us fans know to keep the faith (no matter how hard it is)…
Anyways, I came across www.seatgeek.com which I wish I found earlier in life, but that’s besides the point. This site essentially is like a search engine for events that you would need tickets for (concerts, shows, sporting events…). They find you the best offers that are currently online - doesn’t matter if you are looking months before, or day of. I’ll be checking this out daily this baseball season, and for a few country concerts I have my eye on.
Contemplating getting one of these bad boys as a little b-day gift for myself….might need to bite the bullet, especially since they are sold at the Tannery on Boylston which is right down the street from my office…
Sharing the best of Boston & other inspirational bits and pieces
