I was looking forward to tonight’s event. A group I am Facebook friends with,
BucksHappening was celebrating their 2nd Anniversary.
an online magazine and is a source for everything happening in Bucks County –
where I live. I love what they do & love their entrepreneurial spirit & wanted to
meet the brains behind the business. As many of you know this is something like
what I already do & would like to pursue as my “real job”!

Tonight’s adventure was held on the New Hope Ivyland train.

Angela Giovone – one of the “brains” behind

my good camera (and knew how to use it).

Glad she made it!!!

After the train ride we stopped over at Triumph Brewing Company
because Mary didn’t really get to eat since she was delayed in traffic.
Triumph is located right behind the train station.

cozy pigs puff pastry, andouille, chipotle sour cream, honey –
these were ok…. not as good as the Pigs in the blanket neighbor Chris makes!

lame cheese plate for 12 bucks?
I saw other food people had food that looked good but really wasn’t too
impressed with what we had. Too bad – because I always want to
LIKE a place especially local establishments. I’ll have to go
back & provide you with a “proper review”……..
