4th go at this Turkey

Episode 86-Recorded for the first time at Peticia’s House in Amesbury! We catch up with Alicia, BSide and T-Man!

GOBBLE GOBBLE LISTENERS!

Did ya miss us?!

We couldn’t have a Thanksgiving pass us without having a Thanksgiving Episode! That’s like not watching ‘A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving’ or NO POTATOES at T-Day Dinner!

We briefly talk about our hiatus (which we are still on-ish?). RIP to the Legend Stan Lee, Plastic Bag Ban in Full Effect for Gloucester in 2019 (Alicia and B have already been on that information tip for a minute)

Shout out Destino’s for updating their “To Go” Salad boxes to recyclable containers! We catch up with Tyler, he’s not so little anymore-a HIGH SCHOOLER now! A&B go on day trip with John Jerome and Future guest Carrie. Where’s our theme song John? Also shout out to John for that opener for this episode 😉

BSide talks about her new side hustles with the Rowley Cornhole Sliders, go see them or play every Tuesday (weather permitted) at RiverWalk Brewing Co. in Newburyport. Did you catch her on First, Worst, Last?

Happy Birthday this past weekend Peter!

Thank you listeners for supporting us and enjoying us on Facebook, it warms B’s heart.

See you soon!

Practice Gratitude

grandbanksbp's avatarCape Ann Home

practicing gratitude

There is a lot for us to be grateful for, but it’s easy to forget how lucky we are to live here. We take the things and the people we see every day for granted. It happens. The holidays are a perfect time to reconnect with gratitude, to step back, take a breath, and appreciate all of the gifts we have.

Practicing gratitude can help you sit at the table with the family members you don’t agree with. It’s important to remember that we are all just people doing the best we can. And when we come to the table with that in our minds, it’s a lot easier to find gratitude and enjoy the gifts of the holidays.

Windward Grille in Essex

Great dinner at the Windward Grille last weekend.

Shrimp Lemoncello appetizer

Haddock Rockefeller (delicious!) and Haddock Piccata. When the menu said the haddock was baked, I was expecting a casserole dish, but was delighted with this.

Salmon with Dijon mustard sauce was enjoyed as well. The portions were generous.

And, my favorite part, coffee drink for dessert. We hadn’t been to the Windward in a while, but we were very happy to return.
