Trip to Conneticut

I went on a supplier visit in Conneticut the last two days. Here is what I learned about Conneticut since it was my first visit that I recall anyway...

1) People who live in Conneticut LOVE donuts! How do I know this...there are Dunkin' Donuts everywhere like there are Walgreens in the Midwest. They have to love donuts or they wouldn't all still be in business and some of them aren't even a quarter mile away from each other.

2) If you find yourself in Milford, CT, you have to eat at this great little restuarant called Scribners in Woodmont which is right next to Milford. http://www.scribnersrestaurant.com/ They don't open til 5, so go for a walk along the shore (only a few blocks away) first, you need to work up an appetite for this place. Everything was wonderful!

3) The architechure of Yale is definitely worth the detour off the highway to go see.

4) The neighborhoods not far from Yale -- kinda scary!

5) When in doubt, ask an officer. In New Haven, there is a very hot officer in car 13. He told us not to go down the street in the way we had already gone. But he also gave us directions to State Street to find a place to eat. And surprisingly it wasn't to Dunkin' Donuts. He told us to try an italian place called Portofino! OMG amazing place. If you are at Yale, ya gotta try this place!

6) Seriously, there are a lot of Dunkin' Donuts in CT. I finally told those I was traveling with..."I think there must be crack in the donuts!"
