It won’t be long now til the tree is in full bloom. I’m still debating whether to pull it and replace it with something that will grow better. We got it and it hasn’t grown all that much in the four or five years we’ve had it and I’d like something that will really spread out and grow larger than what we’re getting out of this one. the blooms on the Kwanzan are stunning though and each pod produces three distinct flowers when they pop.

The Open Door’s annual Empty Bowl Dinner will be held on Thursday, May 13, from 4 to 8 p.m. at Cruiseport Gloucester.  Extra parking is available at Good Harbor Beach with regular trolley service provided by CATA to and from the event site. Tickets are $12 and available at the door. Cash, check or charge.
The meal is simple—soup, bread and a cookie. Guests can choose and keep a soup bowl handcrafted for this community event. The bowl goes home as an unspoken reminder that somewhere someone’s bowl is empty.
Empty Bowl events are held nationally to generate awareness concerning hunger and to raise money for local hunger-relief programs. Proceeds from this event benefit The Open Door Summer Lunch and The Open Door Mobile Market.

Peeps Part III or is it IV?
Plan ahead for next Easter or create your own art with peeps and a microwave. Eastern Ave Shaws still has them in the 50% off carts in the last aisle.

It used to be that on certain days if I didn’t realize it was Monday and headed downtown to Sugar Mag’s you’d get the harsh reality of the closed sign. Not any more my friends.
Sugar Mag’s- now open 7 days a week.
