Late Wednesday afternoon view
As I was emptying the butt butlers in Magnolia the harbor looked so pretty. Also thank you all for using the butt butlers instead of throwing them on the ground.

Classic Cooks Cafe adds a downtown location
Prepared meals and soup and sandwiches to go. Classic Cooks Cafe and full service catering can be found at 27 Eastern Avenue (back of the Masonic Lodge by Veterans Elementary School and Russel’s florist), Cape Ann Farmers Market, and this new space next to Orange Leaf, 102 Rogers Street. Easy sandwich from two stops- one small container of pulled pork from Classic Cooks paired with Alexandra’s cobbles was scrumptious I’m told.

Cake Ann Saves the Day
GMG Jimmy’s family had a mini-reunion on Long Island recently and we were to bring some dessert. So, of course, I went to Cake Ann and asked for something we could take that would withstand the ride. And, boy, did we get fixed up! These turnovers and treats left Gloucester at the unholy hour of 4:30 AM and made their way to the Cross Island Ferry to the party to be served more than 12 hours later. Not only were they a big hit, but they were also deeeee-licious! Thanks, Cake Ann, for saving the day. I’m not well known for my cooking skills and these made me look like a genius. And we could all use that when visiting the in-laws!
