CT: Fairfield County-Ridgefield (Holiday Stroll)

Grab a gingerbread hot cocoa, a gingerbread cookie and take a Gingerbread House stroll!

The 2020 Holiday season is a bit tougher to find ways to get in the spirit and stay safe so I continue to seek opportunities for myself and others.

So I made my own hot beverage and brought it along to my stroll in Ridgefield down Main Street. I was immediately brought into the holiday spirit by the star lights in the sky and a musical van which was roaming the streets with a grinch Santa Claus.

My favorite shops lit up their window displays to remind me and others that with caution you can still enjoy their offerings. My personal favorites include the Book Store, Sweet shop, Candlelight Shop for the best pajamas and the newly located Cakebox bakery. All wonderful options for holiday gift giving.

The Lounsbury House was where I went to my final group event before Covid wave one. A wonderful mystery dinner with a friend. I was so pleasantly surprised to find that today, in addition to their beautifully holiday decorated venue, was an outdoor gingerbread house walk where you could see locally created gingerbread houses on window display. I only included one shot so as not to ruin the surprises!

Additionally the surrounding homes were decorated with care for the enjoyment of all that pass. It was so welcoming and beautiful. A wonderful holiday evening respite.
