The 2013 GMG Biennial Deviled Egg Competition and Mug Up was alot fun.  The winners were:  First Place for Taste – Linda Sojda, Second Place for Taste – E.J. Lefavour, Third Place for Presentation – Gigi Mederos, Most Like Mom’s – Janet Allen, Most Filling & Meaty – Joanne Souza, Most Devilish (and hotter than a m-f’er as Paul Morrison put it) – Amy Bell.  The judging panel was made up of The Honorable Judges Joseph Ciaramitaro, Ed Collard, Adam Bolonsky, Paul Morrison and Richard Rosenfeld.  The judges took their positions very seriously; from the establishment of their criteria, the categories of judging and their final decisions made while sequestered at a remote location on Madfish Wharf.

In addition to the competition and excess deviled eggs, the Mug Up was made great by the contributions of Jen and Pete Goodwin from Rockport who brought delicious stuffed jalapenos, Donna & Rick Ardizzoni  (who just celebrated their 28th anniversary) brought a fresh fruit salad, Paul Morrison brought a big box of those amazing donuts from Brothers Brew in Rockport (I guess monkey bread is not out yet), Len Burgess brought muffins, Sister Felicia brought a heaping tray of her sicilian pizza.  There were other contributions to Mug Up, but in the chaos of the competition, I didn’t see who brought what.  Thank you all so much.

Watch for the announcement of the next food competition which will take place sometime in July.

Dear Friends:

   Below are notices for two important meetings that will be held this week.
   The first is the public hearing on next year’s budget on Tuesday.
   The second is a forum to be sponsored by the Friends of Good Harbor on Thursday discussing the group’s findings on the health of the marsh system and its plans to help save the marsh and improve conditions around the beach and its ecosystem.
   Both are important to us as citizens of Gloucester and are open to the public.

Times journalist Richard Gaines found dead in swimming pool

By RAY LAMONTEditor

We taped this two part video interview with Richard on June 8th,2009 almost 4 years ago to the date.  In the interview Richard talks about why he feels so strongly about giving a voice to the fishermen and looking out for the underdog.

The interviews are hosted on blip.tv who now place an ad in front of the video.  The interviews with Richard start after one commercial.  I’ll re-upload the file to youtube if I can find the original once I get to the dock tomorrow morning.

I wrote this back on May 26th, 2011
