Aggressive Beggar or Greeter

Posted on by God's Morning

ducks rush

My mother and I were walking along Rocky Neck Ave., just past The Accommodations, when this female mallard came rushing from a distance toward us, quacking away.  You can see the wake she was creating in her rush to come beg something from us.  We didn’t have anything for her, which she soon realized and went on her way.  Maybe she wasn’t begging at all, and just rushing over to greet us.

NIAZ DORRY DEMONSTRATES HOW TO CLEAN SQUID AT THE ROCKPORT HARVESTFEST

Posted on by Kimsmithdesigns

Niaz Dorry from NAMA gave the audience at the Rockport Harvesfest seafood throwdown a stellar demonstration on how to clean squid. I can’t post all the Instagrams here on GMG but you can go to my Instagram page to see the series.

Squid is very easy to clean and to cook and I love to order it out too. One of our favorite Gloucester restaurants for calamari is the Cape Ann Brew Pub, where it is always fried to crisp perfection and never rubbery from overcooking. Where ever I have tried squid in Rhode Island, they almost always serve it with bright yellow banana peppers. Does anyone know if any of our local restaurants serve squid with banana peppers?

Niaz Dorry is the director of the Northwest Atlantic Marine Alliance. She lives in Gloucester with her dog Hailey. You can read more about her work with NAMA and why Time Magazine named her “Hero for the Planet” on the organization’s website here.
