Just kinda/sorta curious, do you Boston and Rhode Island foodies wear aprons or togas?
I'll want to arrive in fashion naturally. 🙂
Andy
Andy, I do not doubt that Skinny Dipping will be one of the activities if the Cook-in is held in Summer. Make sure you bring the appropriate clothes for it.
Maxine may offer skinny-dipping. I offer bungee-jumping from a 17th-floor balcony.

Hmmm, sounds fun. Maybe we could do a bungee apple bob.
And both locations are easy for me to reach, one take a little longer than the other but I'm familiar with the Back Bay area too. Been awhile since I rode the T from Providence to Boston, how much is a round trip now, $14 or so?

The T is, I believe, about $15 RT between Providence and Boston; Amtrak is about $25. So are both locations good for you? How about a seasonal preference -- apple time?
Maxine and I are cooking up plans for a New England cook-in, and are wondering how many of you would be interested. Our location choices are Maxine's house in Cranston, RI, or Felice's apartment in Boston, and our seasonal choices are winter or spring.
Maxine offers a good-sized yard and plenty of parking in the spring, less than 1/10 of a mile from the bus stop. She keeps kosher, so food should be brought prepared, and she keeps a cat who leaves her allergens around.
Felice counters with a location next to the Pru and a short walk from Back Bay station, with a Shaw's (and its liquor license) on the corner. She has a small but well-equipped kitchen that will accommodate some prep, and warns of sometimes pricey city parking.
Before we get too far into this, we'd like to hear from those of you who are interested as to which location and which season would be more convenient for you.
Count me in at either location, if my schedule allows. Its been a while since the last time I was anywhere near NE, so it is time to visit again.

Both you'd take to the local city (providence or boston) then take the local trans (RIPTA or MBTA) to within a block or so of the cook-in. Providence is closer by maybe 45 minutes.

Maxine, What RIPTA route are you near?
22 or 30. Get off at Phred's and walk a couple blocks

Um, the naturalist beach is a bit far for walking. And you have to share it with the piping plovers....

That's a long way to the drop if you want a sausage roll.
(Apologies to AkkaDakka fans :-)
You're planning to come for our cook-in? You'll get the prize for longest distance traveled, for sure! Something special, like a bucket of Del's or a gallon of Autocrat syrup!

Oh that's nice and easy. I'm a few minutes from one of the stop for the 30 line that's in Providence.

Just aprons? It's too cold for just aprons! :-)
Sheesh! You southerners have no blood! I'll turn up the heat. Just be sure to bring the chiles.

Heh, I lived 43 years of my life in NE Ohio at the lapping edges of Lake Erie. I know from cold, snow, and ice. That's precisely why I finally settled my butt down in Arizona. :-)
