Dreamery Creamery Collins Creamery, Enfield September 2010 Collins Creamery deserves a revisit and rewrite someday. Of all the ice cream places on the "official" "Eat Before It's Too Late List" that we've eaten, as well as my list of "other" great ice creams, I think I've received the second most nudges to … [Read more...]

Ice Cream at Buttonwood Farm
We've Buttoned Up the Ice Cream List Buttonwood Farm, Griswold August 2010 When is eating delicious ice cream a sad affair? When it's the last of the 7 Roadfood "Eat Before It's Too Late" ice cream joints on the list I'm completing. I think Hoang shed a tear. A butterfat tear. Of course, Hoang convinced me … [Read more...]
Liuzzi’s Cheese
Mama Mia! Liuzzi’s Cheese, North Haven December 2010 North Haven doesn’t have a huge representation on CTMQ. A few little museums and some trails here and there. And there’s this: Liuzzi’s Cheese – which is really much, much more than just cheese – tucked away amidst some ugly industrial and office buildings … [Read more...]
Sweet Pea Farm
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Sweet Pea Farm Cheese at House of Hayes Farm, North Granby November 21, 2010 Sometimes Hoang just wants to go for a ride. Since gas costs money and it’s really never a good idea to “just drive,” I take the time to plot a route and hit some CTMQ-worthy spots along the way. It had been a while … [Read more...]
M&K Dairy – Ladies of Levita Road (Closed)
A Hard Cheese is Good to Find… M&K Dairy, Ladies of Levita Road, Lebanon March 12, 2011 This place closed in... I have no idea. Let's guess 2015. … Oh, LeviTA Road, not LeviTRA Road. Oh well. I found this tucked away dairy purveyor on only my second try. Quite frankly, if they didn’t have the name of the … [Read more...]
Ice Cream at Dr. Mike’s (Bethel)
Doctor, Doctor, Gimme the Ice Cream (Pt 2) Dr. Mike's, Bethel September 2010 (Don’t expect too much different here from the other Dr. Mike’s entry if you’ve read that one - from our visit to their Monroe location.)

Ice Cream at Timothy’s
Sweet Jesus, That’s Good Timothy's, Bridgeport July 2010 Fact: Hoang never complains or rolls her eyes when I tack on an ice cream visit after another day of museum-going or other such Saturday activity a CTMQ wife must sometimes endure. And it’s not just because the girl likes her ice cream; it’s because Damian … [Read more...]
Beltane Farm (Closed)
I Got the Vapors From the Vespers Beltane Farm, Lebanon May 16, 2010 Beltane ceased commercial cheese-making in September 2018. They still exist and offer goat care classes and other farm-related stuff, just no more cheese... which is a bummer. I’ll do the world a favor and start off with a PSA: If you plan on … [Read more...]
Ice Cream at Big Dipper Ice Cream Factory
Prospecting For Deliciousness Big Dipper Ice Cream Factory, Prospect May 2010 This is getting tricky. Hitting places “on a list,” which has become sort of a CTMQ household joke, to spice up the drives back up from visiting my family in Delaware is starting to become more difficult. For obvious reasons, each time … [Read more...]
