Shopping and Fun on the Wildwood Boardwalk

You’ll find many boardwalks and promenades up and down the New Jersey coastline. They all have a different vibe, at least in my opinion. Over the decades I’ve visited many of them. You’ll find gift shopping, arcades, various tourist attractions, amusement rides, restaurants and diners,

Let’s discuss cakes. Yes, dessert cakes! Do you have a favorite cake flavor? I’m not a huge cake eater but do enjoy snacking on cupcakes from time to time or a cake pop. I like the white cake as the base with a homemade creamy buttercream frosting. I’m not fond of sprinkles and little candies or colored sugars tossed on the top. When it comes to fancy dessert cakes…I like a good blueberry coffee cake or a strawberry filled cake. How about you? What’s your favorite?

How do you feel about foods and beverages made with squash, zucchini and pumpkins? Are you into it? Got any favorites that you enjoy? I enjoy pumpkin flavored foods and beverages but not fond of squash. I find that prepping zucchini, pumpkin and squash to be difficult and time consuming. They’re not the easiest things to peel and slice!
