Pretty badass that when anyone local says “Where should we go for lunch” and the other person responds “The Hotel” that everyone knows they’re talking about Beauport.

Cannabinoids are a group of naturally occurring chemical compounds produced by cannabis plants and some other botanicals, as well as the human endocannabinoid system (ECS).
There are two types of cannabinoids: phytocannabinoids and endocannabinoids. Each is named based on where they are derived. The prefix phyto- means “plant,” and phytocannabinoids originate from plants. The prefix endo- means “within,” and these cannabinoids are produced within the body. Both interact with the endocannabinoid system of the nervous system.
Over 100 cannabinoids have been identified. Two of the best-known are CBD (cannabidiol) and THC (tetrahydrocannabinol). Each compound interacts with cannabinoid receptors within the ECS. Cannabinoids can elicit both psychoactive and non-psychoactive effects. Below are a few of the more prevalent cannabinoids and their primary effects:
CBD (Cannabidiol): This therapeutic cannabinoid has many beneficial properties (pain relief, anti-inflammatory, anti-nausea and others) but is non-intoxicating. Research continues to inform us about CBD’s potential.
CBG (Cannabigerol): The first cannabinoid ever identified, CBG has displayed antifungal, antibacterial, antidepressant and pain-relieving properties. Like CBD, it is non-intoxicating.
CBN (Cannabinol): This cannabinoid has been shown to help sedate the body, alleviate pain and nausea and support a sense of calm – with minimal side effects.
CBC (Cannabichromene): Studies have demonstrated CBC’s benefits for mood, pain, inflammation, brain cells and even acne. It is non-intoxicating and aids in the entourage effect.
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol): This cannabinoid has significant intoxicating effects. (It’s the component that produces the high Cannabis is known for.) THC has been proven to sedate and relax, and it also affects cognition, consciousness, mood and energy levels.
Taken alone, each cannabinoid can produce different effects in the body. When taken together, cannabinoids may work in synergy to enhance the cannabis plant’s functional benefits overall and may create vastly different experiences with different benefits and impact depending on the ratio of different cannabinoids.
Full-spectrum formulations are as close to nature as possible. The whole-plant hemp extract contains all of the cannabinoids and terpenes. They work better together – and this is commonly referred to as the “entourage effect.” Visit us at AngelWingsShop.com

Funding to support operations of expanded Sawyer Free Library
For Immediate Release (January 27, 2024) Gloucester, MA – – The Sawyer Free Libraryhas been awarded a $27,700 grant from the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency, through its Operating Grants for Organizations Program that provides multi-year, unrestricted operating grants to nonprofit organizations that enrich Massachusetts’ cultural life. This funding recognizes the Library’s commitment to high-quality cultural and educational resources and activities in the arts, humanities and sciences.
“Our Cape Ann residents deserve outstanding opportunities, and that’s exactly what the newly renovated and modernized state-of-the-art Sawyer Free Library will provide – for free to all,” saidSenate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester). “This grant from the Mass Cultural Council is a crucial investment in our community, ensuring the Library remains a beacon of equal access and lifelong learning.”
“As the daughter of a school librarian, public libraries hold a special place in my heart,” said State Representative Ann-Margaret Ferrante (D-Gloucester). “The Sawyer Free Library fosters a love of reading, inspires learning, and cultivates connections among all the residents of Cape Ann. I am grateful to the Mass Cultural Council for their support at this exciting moment as the Library expands its resources, programs, and services to reach new audiences and build a lasting community.”
“We are deeply grateful to the Mass Cultural Council for recognizing the Sawyer Free Library’s public value,” said Mern Sibley, President of the Sawyer Free Library Board of Trustees. “For nearly 200 years, we have enriched lives, fostered creativity, and built connections. As we move into our newly renovated, expanded, and modernized space, this grant will help us broaden our reach, enhance our services, and continue building a brighter future for Gloucester.”
As the largest free public space in Gloucester, the Sawyer Free Library draws over 275,000 in-person and online visitors annually. Guided by its mission to cultivate community connections, power imaginations, inspire learning, and provide an inclusive, welcoming space for all, it hosts hundreds of free public programs each year. With a newly renovated and modernized building, the Library looks to increase monthly programs by 25% and community-focused events by 50%.
For Fiscal Year 2025, the Mass Cultural Council has adopted a $34 million spending plan, enabling the agency to award at least 2,500 grants totaling approximately $38 million to the Commonwealth’s creative and cultural sector. These funds primarily come from the Council’s $26.7 million state budget appropriation and support from the National Endowment for the Arts. Through initiatives such as the Mass Cultural Facilities Fund in partnership with MassDevelopment, the Council’s unrestricted organizational support grants help cultural organizations innovate, take on new challenges, and expand access for underserved audiences—improving quality of life, creating economic opportunity, and fostering greater cultural participation across Massachusetts.
Mass Cultural Council funds reach every community in the Commonwealth. Its mission is to advance the Commonwealth’s creative and cultural sector by celebrating traditions and talents, championing its collective needs, and equitably investing public resources.

Not that they’re charging 30 cents more per customer that dines in, but that they’re announcing it rather than just increasing their price by 30 cents which no one is going to balk at anyway.
This is such a terrible marketing idea.
That’s worse than charging 10 cents for a paper bag at a grocery store.
You just piss off the customer and point out a problem when no one would have even complained. Whoever made the decision to post the sign would be off my team so fast their head would spin.

We’re thrilled to announce a new coffee partnership with Motif Roasters!!! After an engaging “cupping” (☕️☕️☕️ tasting) hosted by head roaster Eoin Vincent, we’ve chosen two of our favorite Motif coffees to brew for our customers.
❤️☕️The Motif Morning Brew blends beans from Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Guatemala, with notes of coca, roasted nuts, and caramel. Word on the street is that dark roast is popular on Cape Ann, so we’ve also chosen Motif’s Dogtown, a rich Colombian dark roast. ❤️☕️
The Team at Salty’s 🥯🥯🥯 1 Whistlestop Mall, Rockport Open Sat. & Sun. 8 am – 11 am or sell out.

We decided to go to 1640 Hart House on Linebrook Road in Ispwich for dinner on a recent cold winter evening. This old house has been adapted for restaurant and event use. The minute you walk onto those wide plank wood floors, you know you’re experiencing part of history. The ceilings in the dining rooms is low and the lighting is dim (the way it would have been in pre-electricity days) but the service is attentive and friendly. We found it to be quite full for a weekday dinner which is a good sign!
We were seated in the Keepers Room which was intimate and cozy. I had the Fish and Chips (which you can see was HUGE) and Jim ordered Chicken Milanese. Warm bread preceded our drinks which were generously poured. We finished with a classic (for the sake of this post only haha) apple crisp. It was a nice little excursion to Ipswich and we’ll plan to go again sooner than later.
