Lobster trap buoy tree KIDS BUOY painting all week

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Hi Joey-
Cool interactive gateway this year on Cape Ann Art Haven lobster trap design! Great photo op for everybody.

If we ever have buoy overflow –or enough requests and funding– wouldn’t it be great to hang the buoys with the wreaths downtown?  We used to have gold buoys with the wreaths.

The wreaths at the train station and along Railroad Avenue look wonderful this year with the new sidewalk.

Hi Joe,

      I was up through Gloucester last weekend of November, and finally stopped at this turn in the road I’ve been wanting to stop at…so pretty at Stubby Knowles Landing. Thought I might share these with you. Gayle White

Hi Joey,

Charles and George received some fun photos and stories about the Gloucester High School cadets program. Here’s a challenge. Local prize for first correct responses.

Who is this cadet with Brando brows and cleaned up coif? Does anyone have any information about the GHS graduation photographer and year?

When was the uniform in the color photo worn at Gloucester High School? 

Good Morning Gloucester and the Gloucester Daily Times spread the word about the Gloucester High School Civil War coat that needs restoration. Charles and George set up a youcaring site for anyone who wants to donate on line. Due to their age (6th grade) they themselves don’t have Facebook, but others have been sharing for them! They want to get back to it in January, “because no one wants to do raise money in December.” Money collected will go directly to the Gloucester fund and then on to a textile conservator through the Committee for the Arts.

the wine Trap For The Wine Lover in your Life

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

https://www.instagram.com/p/-9crUWRKIs/

image

Available now at Pisces, Savour Wine and Cheese and The Last Resort On Bearskin Neck

The Wine Trap was born out of a love for lobstering and drinking
No good story ever started with “I had a glass of orange juice” and this one is no different. We are a crafty family with deep roots in fishing that go back to the early 1900s. We love to build and create together. After a few cocktails one evening, we tried to figure out a way to share our passion for the ocean with the world. After several hours of crimping and bending The Wine Trap was born.
Each trap is handmade by our family and friends using authentic lobster trap materials in a fashion similar to the traps we use for fishing.
Although it can be used to gift wine and other spirits, there are so many other uses for The Wine Trap. It can hold LED candles, potpourri, candy etc. And we think it will outwit most squirrels when used as a bird feeder. Hopefully you will find some new ones as well.
There is no better feeling than sharing, so we hope you enjoy and share The Wine Trap with your friends and family.
From our family to yours!!!! Enjoy!!

These guys…

Honestly how can I be more thankful to have James and Anna Eves in my life?   These MFers right here just always step up when it comes time to have fun.  Thank you guys for hosting this year’s GMG Holiday Party and thanks for being such great friends.  We’re so blessed to have you in our lives.

PS: When searching for a photos of James and Anna together I came across this photo that Alicia Pensarosa took and couldn’t help but wonder what the whole thing about Anna not wearing shoes is.  Totally intrigued.  Just rolling around the shop barefoot.  Such a power move,  there was no way I wasn’t going to use this picture.

External Temp 36 Degrees

5:10AM Set Up Smoker using minion method. Looking to get a controlled temp around 275.  Using Kingsford Briquettes, Apple Chunks from Russell Orchards in Ipswich MA and Cherry wood chips for smoke.

Lightly slathered ribs with Texas Pete Hot Sauce and used Paul Prudhomme Blackened Rub.

Once pit temps hit 180 degrees closed two out of the three bottom vents and left one wide open.  After climbing to 200 degrees closed bottom vent a third of the way looking to not let the pit get too stoked and fight temps on the high side throughout the smoke.  Aiming for 275 degrees.
