Art Haven Lobster Buoys Up For Auction
Don’t anyone even think about getting into a bidding war with me at tomorrow nights lobster buoy auction to benefit Art Haven at Cruiseport. I have my eye on that lobster buoy and I don’t want things to get ugly so just stay the hell away from bidding on the lobster one.
Are we clear?

Making Semolina Bread Stuffing At Last Stop Variety
Have you ever tried the turkey sandwich with cranberry chutney and semolina bread stuffing sandwich at Last Stop Variety?
If you haven’t you gotta go try it. It’s a great great sandwich and hearty kind of meal for this time of year. I love that we have a place like Last Stop in East Gloucester close to the dock so I know I can always swing by and get some home cooked goodness.

Blog Viewing Lesson #2
Today’s lesson is how to use the category links at the bottom of the page to find things that may interest you.
99% of the posts that I put up I place into a category or a couple categories. It takes a little extra time but as far as cataloging Gloucester and the blog itself for the future it pays incredible dividends. If I ever stopped posting people could use categories or the search function to find just about anything in Gloucester that I’ve posted in the past.
So for example if you are interested in lobster, you scroll to the bottom of this page and click on the word in the category section that says lobster and every post that I’ve ever put up that has to do with lobster will come up from the date closest to now back in time. There are other categories such as “eats” which contains all the food pictures from Gloucester restaurants, or pics from our kitchen.

Do me a favor and let me know if you can hear the audio in the video in the comment section below this post, thanks.

Art Haven Art Show and Buoy Auction
Received this info from David Brooks-
ART HAVEN ART SHOW
2009 Programs Fundraiser
Dear Friends,
On January 30th, Cape Ann Art Haven will be conducting its first ever Art Show and fundraiser. For the last 6 months, Art Haven has been offering art lessons after school in the heart of down town Gloucester. During this time, our Main St. studio has been a headquarters for young artists to meet and develop friendships. Many of the children we serve have trouble expressing themselves through conventional extra curricular activities, such as sports. Art Haven is a place where children can be proud of what they can accomplish. Since our opening, all staff at Art Haven have been volunteers, and have occasionally paid for the supplies for fun projects out of their own pockets. Proceeds from the art show will contribute to funding for this new year, and we, as well as all the children who take classes at Art Haven, are looking forward to displaying the artwork they have created.
This will be a great time to meet those who are involved in Art Haven. There will be buffet dishes donated by many Gloucester Restaurants (Lat 43, Thai Choice, Azorean, Sebastian’ Pizza, Jalapenos, Chili Choice and more…), as well as a cash bar. Also, Senator Bruce Tarr will be auctioning off painted buoys from this years lobster trap Christmas tree. We hope to see you there! Tickets are only $5.00!! Be there at 6 pm.

Here’s a breakfast sandwich from The Pleasant Street Tea and Coffee Co. It was salmon and cream cheese on a croissant. Delish.

The Aftermath Of The Eastern Avenue House Explosion
It is a miracle that the man in this house got out alive. How ironic is it that the man has a dangerous job but gets injured after work in the comfort of his own house in a freak accident?
Here is information here on how to help.
