To Whom It May Concern:

Do you sell canned cod fish?  I would like to make cod fish patties, but can’t find canned cod fish.  Can you help?

Thank you

My reply-

Try hake or haddock you won’t know the difference

I’d love to tape a segment with seafood professionals where we batter up or make fish cakes with hake, cod or haddock and have them try to identify each one once they’re all ground up and put in a breading.

I’m not going to mention the name of the place because I don’t slam small family businesses but a place I once considered the kings of the Roast Beef game and the standard to which all other three ways were measured just served me a total turd. Grey meat, cold, barely any jimmy, no crunch on the bun. Barely edible. A 4 on a scale from 1-10. I’m so disappointed and saddened by how far they’ve fallen at the same time that you have places like Jamie’s Roast Beef which is taking the beef game to a whole new level.

I guess the memories from all those late night rendezvous in my late teens in high school will be all that’s left of this once great establishment.

They’re not even the best Nicks in Beverly anymore. Nicks Pizza, Subs and Roast Beef on Essex St. blows them out of the water

Thanks to Dan Robertson suggestion in reply to my disappointment 21 weeks ago I gave *the other Beverly Nick’s a go and man was it glorious-

Thanks Dan Robertson.

When in Beverly veer toward the Essex Street Nick’s and you won’t be disappointed.

Hi Joey

While I was watching the magnificent parade of sails on Sunday I noticed a small plane trying to make a contrail circle over the schooners. I think this is a cool pic and thought I’d share it .

Stay well Joey

This is the time of year we get photos f these fish sent into the blog as the Giant Sunfish are not seen all the time and when people come across them they recognize how different they are.

Also the subject of one of the funniest videos ever when a couple of Massholes documented their encounter with a “Baby Whale”

Hanna Kimberley Writes:

Sooooo very proud of my dear friend Aniko, whose new business was chosen to represent our great state of Massachusetts. And James, her husband, who brings in the water for Cape Ann Sea Salt! Whoot!

In March 2020, Anna Baglaneas-Eves and her husband, James Eves, launched a pandemic-proof venture: solar-powered sea salt. They collect ocean water in Rockport, filter it and evaporate it in a greenhouse in their backyard. “This is ocean-to-table,” she says. After growing sales 250% in 2021, they’re now expanding Cape Ann Sea Salt from farmers’ markets and online sales to restaurants and stores.
