Do you enjoy coffee?
Led by coffee cupping guru Rob Fitzgibbon, this program is like a wine tasting, but with coffee. We will begin with an informal half hour presentation, covering coffee as an agricultural commodity, how it’s grown and processed, how it’s been consumed throughout history, and an introduction to concepts such as roasting, aroma, taste and mouthfeel.
We then do a fun interactive exercise in which participants try three different coffees and document what they smell and taste using stickers and a flavor wheel.
We end by reviewing our shared perceptions of taste and aroma, have Q & A session and finish the coffee. The purpose is to to pay attention to coffee – to gain more appreciation for the complexity and wonder of a drink that we typically take for granted in our day to day life.

The Lobster’s Sticky Rib Salad was pretty excellent. Ribs aren’t necessarily something I would normally order out, but I’m so glad I tried this. It was delicious.
I saw that the Serenitee restaurants were offering a first-ever Restaurant Week menu and we just had to give it a try at our favorite Serenitee restaurant: Minglewood on Rogers St. As always, we were warmly greeted and promptly offered menus and drinks (thanks Ryan). We chose from the Restaurant Week menu selections our 3 courses for $46 each. Jim had arancini and I tried the flatbread appetizer. The arancini disappeared and the flatbread was a great start. I wanted the ribeye with loaded potato and onion strings, which were an extra charge but totally worth it. In particular, the onion strings were outstanding. Jim had seafood risotto which he enjoyed so much there was none leftover to bring home. AND dessert (yes, desert..) we each had lemon cake. I was very happy to support this new effort from Serenitee and hope to try another site before Dec 15. You still have time to try it yourself! It’s a holiday gift you give yourself.

The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation is proud to present the original silent movie ‘Peter Pan,’ a 1925 American fantasy-adventure film as part of its Tenth Anniversary Series. It will be narrated by acclaimed actress Lindsay Crouse and accompanied on the pipe organ by maestro Peter Krasinski. This is great entertainment for the whole family during the holidays!
Tickets are available at the door and online (strongly recommended) with more information at: http://www.gloucestermeetinghouse.org. General admission is $30, students $10, under age 12 free.
The historic 1806 Meetinghouse, home of the Gloucester Unitarian Universalist Church, is located on the green at the corner of Middle and Church Streets (GPS 50 Middle Street). Parking is available on the green and around the historic district. The side entrance at 10 Church Street has an elevator to the main level, if needed.
For decades the silent movie ‘Peter Pan’ was thought to be lost but in the 1950’s a well preserved copy was discovered in a vault in Rochester, New York. The film is based on a play written by Sir James Barrie and was directed by Herbert Brenon in 1924 and was filmed on Santa Cruz island. The plot explores fantasy, adventure and is a playful film armed with technical ingenuity and classic source material.
The presentation will be narrated by Lindsay Crouse, American actress who made her debut in the 1972 revival of Much Ado About Nothing. She has played many roles in numerous films and received a Daytime Emmy Award nomination. Lindsay is a resident of Annisquam and a well-known celebrity on Cape Ann.
The film will also be accompanied by Peter Krasinski, a master of improvised silent movie accompaniment, whose exciting performances delight kids and adults alike. Krasinski will display the diverse power of the 1893 Hutchings/Fisk organ, creating music that adds mystery, intrigue and excitement to this memorable and nostalgic film.
‘Peter Pan’ is presented in collaboration with the Cape Ann Community Cinema.
