Put down the shovel and pick up some items from the town’s local shops in Belmont Center that will revitalize your downtrodden-I-want-to-rip-this-coat-and–scarf-off spirit. While we didn’t find a sun lamp in town, you can warm up your bathtub with glowing candles and scents reminiscent of past winter break vacation hot spots.

Use that expensive bubble bath you’ve been saving. And stop at Thirty Petals Boutique for a few essential items that will help you drift away. Prime those dry lips with the bean that is native to Mexico. Twist & Pout vanilla scented gloss has an extra bonus of SPF22. Then light the Coconut Milk Mango candle by Illume. No bikini, no problem. Set out the comfortable Hanky Panky lace thong to slip into after you slip out of the tub. And pull back your hair with one of the stores whimsical and fun headbands.

But before you lock that door break out the good glasses and pour a glass of bubbly spirits from South of the Border (why not?). Craft Beer Cellar has Mexican brewed pale ale Chupacabras. Or go for something more tropical with St. Johns Mango brewed in the Virgin Islands. Rub-a- dub- dub.
