Patty and Allison go to Cisco Brewery

Patty and I had the day to ourselves.  What to do??  Go on a walk, shop around town, go to the beach?  Nope, we decided to try out something new!  We have been coming to Nantucket for 18 years and surprisingly, there are still things on this island that we have yet to try! So yesterday, Patty and I decided to check off one of those Nantucket To Do things off our list.   We headed out to Cisco Brewery!

Cisco Brewery 1

Cisco Brewery is a cool hangout spot for friends to gather to get drinks, food, listen to live music, play some corn hole and have some fun!

Cisco Brewery 3

 They have a raw bar, hot dog stand and food trucks that come everyday!

Cisco Brewery 2

You can pick up a drink at the Triple 8 Distillery, The Nantucket Vineyards or Cisco Brewers.

Cisco Brewery 4

I got a Blueberry Lemonade with Triple 8 Blueberry Vodka.  Mom got a Rum-Tea Dumpty.

Cisco Brewery 5

We also picked up freshly made guacamole and chips!  It was the perfect afternoon snack!

Cisco Brewery 6

All can come… Adults, children and dogs, too.

Cisco Brewery 7

We had a fun time hanging out there!  Just remember… it’s always 5 o’clock somewhere!

Family Beach Day

The Milly & Grace Girls are busy girls during the summer!  So much so that we sometimes forget that we live on an island and that there is a beach waiting for us to have some fun!  We all had the afternoon off, so the Ott Family packed up the car and headed to the beach.

^Look at me – all innocent, just enjoying walking on the beach.  Unbeknownst to me, Caroline was on a mission to throw me in the ocean!  She tried hard but did not succeed! Funny, little Caroline.

BeachDay7

^Lunch time! Yummy! Sandwiches are perfect for a beach lunch!  We picked some up on the way at our favorite sandwich shop, FRESH.

^Relaxing. Soaking in the rays. Soaking in the view.

Aww… Nantucket really is my favorite place in the world.  It was a perfect day at the beach!

What’s hiding at the Nantucket Ice Rink?

One of Nantucket’s best kept secrets is hiding at the Nantucket Ice Rink!  The Milly & Grace Girls are going to let you in on that little secret…

SiamToGo

SIAM TO GO! The ice rink’s concession stand whips up the best Thai food in town.  No joke.  We are being serious.  Curries, fried rice, pad thai, spring rolls and salads… Oh my!

SiamToGo1

When you don’t feel like going into town, or when you want to avoid the crowds, or if you don’t have reservations at your favorite fancy restaurant, or if you just want to stay in after a long day of work or day at the beach… call up Siam (508.228.SIAM), place your order and pick it up in 15 minutes!

SiamToGo2

After work, Caroline and I were on our own for dinner so we called up SIAM!  It was just the two of us so we got the garden salad and Pad Thai to share.

SiamToGo6

We went home, turned on our newest Netflix obsession, Friday Night Lights, and enjoyed a lovely dinner at home.

SiamToGo7

So easy and yummy.

Now this secret stays between us!  Ok?

Don’t go telling everyone you know!
