90. Day trips from Portland--SOWA Vintage Market in Boston. Only about 2 hours from Portland Maine, this fun and funky market offers free parking and great shopping!
There are vendors outside with new crafts including colorful pillows, aprons, towels and bags. Lots of artistic jewelry for all tastes and pocketbooks. You can also buy fresh baked goods, flowers and plants. Inside you will find an interesting array of vintage goods especially unique decor pieces--furniture, chandeliers, linens etc. You could find all the items you need to outfit a super cool 50's style apartment. The stagers for Mad Men should be notified.
The whole area has shops and studios specializing in home decorative arts. Tour de France has those great chairs that you see in every sidewalk cafe in Paris and a wonderful selection of tableware.
91. Although located as part of the food court of the market, Yummy Mummy brownies has to get its own special mention as my daughter and I both ageed that these brownies were the BEST ever! The owner who somehow manages to be very slim told us that she uses her grandmother's recipe. I can only say that they have a thin crust layer on top and bottom and a thick delicious soft chocolate fudge center. With or without big pecans, they are fab! www.YummyMummyBrownies.com
