$200 Gift Certificate to Duckworth’s!

Cape Ann Power Yoga's avatarCape Ann Wellness

In September when we were organizing for the Sober October Challenge at Cape Ann Power Yoga, we decided that the prize should be something really special. For Sober October we asked people to abstain from alcohol and marijuana and to practice 15 yoga classes in the month of October. 43 people entered in to the challenge and 17 completed the yoga and sober month successfully. A handful more completed all the yoga classes but had some drinks, and mostly everyone else maintained their sobriety but didn’t make it to the minimum 15 classes. We’re very proud of all of the individuals who accepted the challenge and took it seriously – however many stickers they put on the chart or slip ups they had along the way.

Congratulations to:

Maureen Farrell – Drew Farrell – Mike Forgette –  Julia Sanfilippo – Paula Lutz –  Andrea Rovedo – Ashley Loprieno – Dave…

Starring Pauline Miceli, Elinor Teele, Jeffrey Forte, and Marc St. Pierre, and directed by Marc St. Pierre, this is a Gloucester-based event not to be missed!

Dates: November 9-11 & 16-18

Times: Fri & Sat at 7:30 PM; Sun at 3 PM

Venue: Gorton Theatre, Home of Gloucester Stage; 267 East Main Street, Gloucester MA 01930

Annisquam Christmas Fair

For years, residents of Cape Ann have lined up at the Annisquam Village Hall before the doors open for the annual Christmas Fair to purchase the beautiful greens, gifts, and gourmet goodies made by the ladies of the Annisquam Sewing Circle.

The fair is known for its beautiful wreaths, but there will also be decorated boxwood trees and mantle and table centerpieces suitable for smaller spaces.

The abundance and variety of handcrafted items will dazzle the eye—sweaters, socks, hats and mittens; placemats, potholders and monogrammed dish towels; needlepoint tree ornaments created by the members of the Annisquam Sewing CIrcle just for this fair, as well as many more one-of-a-kind items that will not be found anywhere else! Once again, Circle member Grace Murray has knitted one of her unique hats (her 335th!), which will be offered in a silent auction. Only one of these hats becomes available to the public each year.

Beautifully wrapped foods and baked goods grace the gourmet table —from homemade preserves to fancy cakes, gluten-free items and even Food for Fido and your Favorite Feline. The fair also features a glittering display of costume jewelry which for many shoppers is a destination itself. Hostess baskets and grab bags are also popular traditional items at the fair.

A delicious three-course luncheon will be served at 12:30. Tickets are $18 and reservations are recommended (visit Annisquamsewingcircle.org)
Founded in 1837, the Annisquam Sewing Circle is one of the oldest continuous independent societies of women in the United States and is the oldest one on Cape Ann. All proceeds from the Fair are contributed by the Annisquam Sewing Circle to Cape Ann community programs.

Do you have to be a complete psychopath to enjoy mushy fruit?

The thought of eating a mushy peach or apple totally disgusts me.

Kate and I agree that our Granny Smith apples Need to be dark green with white dots on them and hard as hell, no soft spots.

grannysmith

Some people I’m talking with say they won’t eat their peaches until they are soft and mushy because they’re sweeter.  Gross.

I want my peaches tart and hard and to come off in crisp bites-
