Holiday Shows 2025
Would like to thank all the venues that held our holiday shows. The Cape Ann Makers Market put on 3 shows from October to December. The Magnolia Library for Magtoberfest, Cruiseport , and The Cut, these shows were extremely successful. The Elks venue is always a pleasure, The Magnolia Women’s Club Holiday Show, and Marshalls Farmstand for a pop up. Thank you to the coordinators and venues for all their hard work. And I would especially want to thank the customers who came out to shop and most important shop local. Thank you again.

Sunday Afternoon At The Gloucester House
It’s become a weekly habit to stop by The Gloucester House Pub on Rogers St Sunday afternoons when we finish at the shop. It’s warm and inviting, comfortable and also offers a great menu and friendly service. I was delighted to note that chicken parm has been added to the menu and I am here to report that it is EXCELLENT. The sauce is a sweeter sauce, the chicken cutlet sized just right and is perfect for a winter afternoon. Highly recommended. Jim got the turkey BLT and we took half home—large portion. See you there soon!
