Breakfast from Tarrytown, NY

Before we left Tarrytown, I walked to local farmers market to get a chocolate croissant for breakfast. I got it from a stand that I knew from experience makes good pastries, and I wasn't disappointed.

We stopped in New Haven for lunch at Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana, a pizzeria that Di Yin loves. I've been there once before (without her) and wasn't impressed.
Our pizza was half "all meat special", consisting of pepperoni, ham, bacon, salami, peppers, and something else. This was good (better than other meat pizzas, which I generally avoid), and not as heavy as it sounds.
The other half was a basic tomato pizza. If my memory serves, it was decent.
I was amused by the way they cut each pizza into slices at random.

I watched them cook pizzas in their large oven and, at one point, stick a long tube into it to vacuum it out.
Dinner at Parents' in Kittery, ME

We ate dinner at my parents' apartment: spanish-style shrimp that my mom likes to cook, along with ciabatta bread, salad, and desserts (yes, plural :> ).
