Ten things some of us did not know about the State of Connecticut:
10. The entire state is NOT, in fact, paved.
9. The Nutmeg State. Cinnamon wasn't available?
8. We traveled every day on Roast Meat Hill Road. Really.
7. I-95 North/South actually runs generally west/east in most of the state. This can be confusing for the navigationally challenged.
6. I am not navigationally challenged. But I wasn't driving. Some people should listen to their backseat drivers.
5. If you let the damn know-it-all driver go far enough the wrong way, you will see a sign that says "Massachusetts - 54 miles".
4. Nothing says "I told you so" better than a sign that says "Massachusetts - 54 miles".
3. Clam Chowder is still nasty stuff, even in New England.
2. It is impossible to have too much lobster.
1. A really beautiful place, but I'm very happy to be home.

About Me
- Jenn And The City
- North of Space Needle, WA, United States
- Once upon a time I went to college and had a fairy tale wedding. I lived miserably in a small town. Thirteen years later I had four dogs, a suicidal ex-husband, and the starring role of drama queen in my own life. After four years of wallowing in self-pity and self-loathing, I abdicated the drama royalty, quit my job, sold the house and took my dog to live in the city with a Coach bag and fabulous shoes. On-line dating lead me to take up residence with a wonderful man, his two children, two dogs, two cats, and a lonely goldfish. I secretly dream of life where I write my dream novel in an Italian villa, but having learned about the fairy tale crap in my 20's, I'll gladly take the modular home with weight equipment in the dining room.

You can't imagine how sad I am that I didn't get to experience CT with you!
Obviously, you went to the wrong place for clam chowder. Even I like clam chowder.
How can you not love clam chowder? HOW?????
