Rubber Duck caught some black seabass while visiting Woods Hole yesterday and needs to make a tartar sauce for the deep fried bass chunks. Maybe one of these with some mayo will hit the spot.

Emily and Ken from Seaview Farms and Sarah from Sarah Kelly! Sarah says Seaview is grilling genuine cow parts that were grass fed in Rockport from 11AM to 1PM down at the Farmers Market in Rockport! I love the hamburger parts of the cow!
Emily and Ken from Seaview Farms and Sarah from Sarah Kelly! Sarah tipped Rubber Duck off that Seaview Farms is grilling genuine cow parts that were grass fed in Rockport at the market today. Grilling from 11AM to 1PM.  I love the hamburger parts of the cow! Ken also explained that the chickens with Rubber Ducks’s name on them are growing up fine. (The chickens are not named rubber duck. They are named Fried and Chicken and will be fried chicken in the fall.)
The bonfire is ready for the match at 9PM tonight but do not miss the food and fun and parade that starts at 6PM.
