a little blue box with an ocean view

This past week my friends were on Nantucket to celebrate the fourth of July. Although I had to work, I still had so much fun with them.

My favorite night was Thursday night. It had been about a month since I last saw Andrew, and we decided that Thursday night would be our day/night to have some alone time.


Somewhere along the way we both went in different directions, and we finally had some time to just sit and talk. We went to The Galley Beach, which is a restaurant right passed Jetties. People are not lying when they say you pay for the view, but it is well worth it.


Andrew and I sat right on the beach with a glass of champagne in hand. I was so happy in that moment. We always order crab cakes where ever we go, and this time wasn't any different. Let me just say it was one of the best crab cakes I have ever had. And of course we ordered the french fries, which were also delicious.


The best part of my night though was when I presented with my favorite colored box, Tiffany&co blue. I opened the box to a beautiful necklace that spoke volumes to what my future with Andrew holds. I was taken back by the meaning the necklace held for Andrew and his feelings towards me. It was the perfect way to end such an amazing week with my friends.

Millies

The best spot to watch the sunset on Nantucket is Madaket beach. Anyone who has been on Nantucket would agree it is breath taking.

Millies is located right on the beach with the most amazing view of the beach and houses surrounding it. The prime time to go there is of course at sunset, but I decided to go on a rainy Monday afternoon. Strangely enough I loved watching the rain while enjoying my fish taco.

Last year I never made it to Millies, so this year it was constantly in the front of my mind to go.

 I ordered the Arkansas Rd, which is grilled salmon, cucumber, tomato, feta, and I added guacamole. I am not lying when I say it was the best fish taco/ lunch I have ever had on the island.

Millies is a must-go for ANYONE. They offer tacos, quesadillas, po boys, and salads. I cannot wait to go back this week.

All of my friends from home will be coming to celebrate fourth of july week with me here. I am so happy to see them and enjoy this week that only comes every seven years.

Centre Street Bistro

Nantucket is known for many things; one being the food. My favorite meal is breakfast, and my friend Kat suggested that we try Centre Street Bistro.

They are affordable, have great service, and of course great food. I had tried all the usual breakfast spots like Downey Flake, Hen House, Black Eyed Susans, and Fog Island Cafe, so I was eager to try something different.

Centre Street Bistro is located right in the middle of town. The morning greeted us with amazing weather so we decided to eat outside. I ordered the "Nantucket Breakfast", which is a blueberry pancake, scrambled eggs, and a potato cake. IT WAS PHENOMENAL and only $10.00!!!! Kat (who knows her food) suggested we split the goat cheese bagette. I was beyond impressed.

Everything about this breakfast experience was amazing. It is now my favorite regular "to do" on Sunday mornings.
