Great Escape: Walk, With A Pastry

Get out and clear your mind.

One of my favorite escapes in Watertown is to take a nice brisk walk, or snow shoe along the new bike path in the morning.

It was exciting to watch as they planted new shrubs, installed benches, and posed new signs last fall. It is also a great way to get in and out of the mall when I need to pick up a few things.

I love to add some fun to my walk and take a turn over to 71 Arlington St. to  for a nice cup of coffee and pastry. They have such an amazing selection! My family’s favorites are the red velvet cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies and the mouth-watering cream puffs. They take special orders on their baked goods and prepare them nicely for you to bring as a gift. I individually boxed their large cupcakes for Christmas gifts and which were a big hit.
