As Matt’s Meals fans know, I am a HUGE fan of My Grandma’s Coffee Cake and pick up a few for myself and my dear friends whenever I can. While I am not a fan of TV shopping, I have been VERY tempted of late to go on QVC to pick up their exclusive apple

FORAGE-ING IN A FAMILIAR PLACE

I lived on Concord Avenue just before Craigie on Main became the sensation it did.
