If you know me personally, you know I am extremely passionate about food. I am generally a very light-hearted person but when it comes to meal time, I am all business. If I could, I would probably spend the entire day eating, which is why Saturday's 6th Annual Local Flavor Harvest Lake Stroll at Skytop Lodge is the perfect day for me!
Walk the stunning lake at Skytop Lodge while sampling the best of the local harvest from executive chefs at Andrew Moore's Stone Bar Inn, Skytop Lodge and The Frogtown Inn & 6 Acres Restaurant. These chefs will be presenting eight different stations full of palate pleasers such as Apple Cider French Onion Soup to Cedar Board Roasted Wild Salmon to Grilled Blue Tomato Filet and much more. My mouth is already watering from just talking about it! Each station is also paired with the perfect wines and do not forget about my favorite course... dessert. The Warm Apple and Cranberry Cobbler is sure to be a home run (Sorry for the baseball reference, I am still coping with the Phillies' loss).
And do not feel any guilt about indulging in this delicious feast! Not only are you burning calories as you walk the lake, a donation of $25 from each ticket will go to the United Way of Monroe County to help local children and families. So head to Skytop Lodge on Saturday and indulge!









Coming up with new blog ideas is not as easy as I thought it was going to be. I'm sitting here wondering what exciting things did I do last week that I can share with everyone. Hmmm... I organized my kitchen cabinets Saturday morning and enjoyed a wonderful dinner in NYC on Sunday evening, but that certainly doesn't qualify for a Pocono Mountains Socialista Blog, but it did get me thinking about all the great restaurants we have right here in our neighborhood. From fast food to chains to gourmet restaurants, you can find just about anything you want in the Pocono Mountains.
Having lived in the Pocono Mountains my entire life, I have heard many legends and lore of the area's alleged hauntings. These stories have always fascinated me and with Halloween just around the corner, I thought that it might be fun to visit a few of the places which are said to have resident ghosts.
