Ā First, we grabbed some lunch at Thai Garden. They sat us in a great private window seat overlooking the street. We all enjoyed our food and felt satiated at a very reasonable price.

Shop in Northampton, Massachusetts

One of the reasons that this is such a great place to shop is that there is everything here. I bought a present for my friend’s birthday tomorrow of a fair trade jewelry box, and we all bought clothes, both preppy and eclectic. If you are looking to spruce up your house, artwork for sale abounds.

Enjoy a Treat in Northampton, Massachusetts

Last but not least, we had to grab something sweet. There are tons of chocolate and ice cream shops to choose from, but we decided to have Bubble TeaĀ at theĀ Ā Limered Tea House. My friends had never tried it, but they loved it. It is a different taste experience- a sweet drink with little popping balls. Today I had the strawberry with lychee pops.
