Don't feel like traveling to Aunt Margaret's with a store-bought pie under your arm? Travel back in time instead for dinner at Hancock Shaker Village in Massachusetts on November 29 for an 1830 meal.

In this dining room, candles light the dishes, the hosts wear traditional dress (including bonnets!) and Blackberrys don't exist. After a tour, tuck into roast beef and bread pudding and wash it all down with cider. No staying overnight in the historic unheated buildings, though!
