ERIN: I am from Redding, CT, a quaint town with lots of open spaces and horse lovers. About 40 minutes north of Greenwich. My husband and I bought our house in Greenwich about a year ago, but my husband has lived here since he was 4 years old, so we feel very at home here! We have one daughter who will be 3 in October.
Town favorites? We had a blast at the Greenwich Town Party this year. Such a wonderful way to kick off the summer and an amazing community event. I adore Green & Tonic for a quick healthy lunch with my daughter- the one in Cos Cob is right next to a playground so we grab a smoothie and go. The Sunday BBQ at Greenwich Country Club is a big family favorite in the summer. I also really enjoy the Inn at Pound Ridge for a special date night away from the hustle and bustle.
I love a recipe I found from Jessica Alba for healthy turkey meatballs. I shred a whole zucchini into the mix and add a lot of chopped spinach in order to plump up the veggie nutrients. They are delicious and my husband loves them too!
I have recently taken up tennis again and I LOVE it. I cannot wait to play with my daughter when she gets older, however, I am sure her skills will surpass mine sooner than I would care to admit! There are many parks that have courts here in town. A family that plays together stays together!
Greenwich is a big town with so much diversity and things to do- yet it maintains a friendly, small town feel. That is what makes living here so special and unique and why I love being a Greenwich mom.
