10 Thanksgiving Dinner Takeout Spots in New Jersey

Submitted by Sasha Muzzarelli on Sun, 11/01/2020 - 4:21pm

Jacques Exclusive Catering serves a wonderful Thanksgiving takeout dinner.

Thanksgiving may be a day to bond with your family and maybe watch some football, but let's face it: It's also a heck of a lot of cooking, cleaning, and organizing. In a season where family gatherings may be smaller and simpler than usual, a festive, pre-made Thanksgiving dinner takeout meal is an easy way to feed the family.

Restaurant curbside pick up has become part of our new normal, and it's the perfect way to take the stress out of Thanksgiving dinner. So, ditch the fuss of cooking, and try ordering a homemade Thanksgiving meal to-go from one of these restaurants or grocery stores. Doing so leaves you with more time to tune into the big Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade or plot a family-friendly hike to work off some of those holiday calories.

Organic Apple Picking in NJ? Where to Find Low-Spray Farms

Submitted by Sasha Muzzarelli on Wed, 09/07/2016 - 1:30pm

I don't know about you, but as soon as that first crisp autumn breeze arrives, my family is ready for a day of apple picking in New Jersey. In addition to hayrides, hot cider, and barnyard animals, we decided that this year, we wanted to pick juicy, ripe, organic apples. After doing a little research, we learned that the woodsy (and buggy) climate here in Jersey can make organic apple farming a challenge. But that doesn’t mean local farmers aren’t doing their best to reduce the use of pesticides, using low-spray methods, and low-impact family farming practices.

Spend a perfect fall day at one of these four New Jersey farms and bring home a bushel of local, responsibly-farmed fruit.

Dive Into KidZone at New Jersey's Adventure Aquarium

Submitted by Sasha Muzzarelli on Sat, 01/02/2016 - 9:02pm

As far as aquariums go, my family is a pretty tough audience to impress. We’ve been there, done that, from the huge Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta to the Miami Seaquarium in our hometown. But since moving to NJ last summer, we’d heard some great things about  Adventure Aquarium, so with (happily!) no big plans for the holiday weekend, we piled into the SUV and made the hour and a half drive from our Jersey City apartment to Camden along the Philadelphia waterfront. Having a 2 1/2 year old, we were mostly excited about the new interactive hands-on exhibit called KidZone, geared towards kids 6 and under.

Play Spaces, Museums, and Aquariums: 10 Educational and Fun Winter Outings

Submitted by Sasha Muzzarelli on Sat, 01/02/2016 - 9:00am

The holidays are behind us but there are still a couple of months before spring is sprung, and it can be a challenge to fill up these lazy, winter days. As a mom to three young kids, I'm all for cozy afternoons watching movies, play-doh sessions in our pjs and finger painting to pass the hours. But sometimes, we need a change of scenery! A chance to get out of the house, explore, learn and fill another gray and chilly day. Fortunately, New Jersey offers up some awesome indoor activities. Bundle up, pile the gang into the car and check out our top 10 fun and educational picks.

How Sweet It Is! Maple Sugaring in New Jersey

Submitted by Sasha Muzzarelli on Fri, 01/01/2016 - 2:26pm

Growing up in South Florida amidst the palm trees, there were certain things that never crossed my mind; basically anything having to do with snow. Snow angels, sledding, snowball fights, skiing, skating, snow shoveling…you get the picture. But one job interview, a moving truck and about 148 boxes later, my family and I became official residents of New Jersey, braving our first winter. I also never thought much about maple syrup. Sure, I knew it came from trees, maybe up somewhere in the mountains of Vermont. But lo and behold, New Jersey actually has a maple sugaring industry and this is the perfect time of year to bundle up the family and take a day trip to a demo at one of our state’s many nature preserves.
