Army of Nurses
“To the Army Nurses from 1864 to 1865 – Army of Mercy and Life Amide Scenes of Conflict and Death.” This State House statue reminded me of the army of medical professions, especially nurses, who have kept me alive for the past thirteen months.
“Civil War veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic, raising the flag in front of Addison Gilbert Hospital in Gloucester, 1904.”
“USS Boston, 1904.”

We have also create a Facebook event for the Auditions as well (https://www.facebook.com/events/837276599643707). Here’s a summary of the event as well:

Mews and Pupdates February 2015 From Cape Ann Animal Aid
WINTER BALL: A NIGHT TO REMEMBER!
Our 12th Annual Winter Ball Fundraising Gala was held at Cruiseport Gloucester on Friday, February 6, 2015. With over 280 people in attendance, the venue was packed full of generous hearts who bid in the live and silent auctions, purchased mystery envelopes with great prizes, and took part in the wildly fun ‘Heads or Tails’ Game.
The highlight of the evening was a surprise appearance from Lady Marmalade’s five puppies. Together, the crowd raised over $8,000 to cover the expenses of caring for Lady and her brood and other animals in need just like them. We–and Lady Marmalade– are so thankful for their kindness and are happy to share that mama and all five puppies have now been adopted!
The Adopt-a-Table Centerpiece Contest was a huge hit once again! Nine local businesses sponsored the Winter Ball by entering the contest, creating a beautiful centerpiece for one of the tables. Attendees voted for their favorite and crowned Sage Floral Studio with top honors!
We wish to thank all that attended and participated in the event. We owe it all to the many businesses and individuals that donated items, gift certificates, experiences and trips to help the cause. Cheers to you and a big round of ‘appawws’!
CAPE ANN ANIMAL AID PARTNERS WITH
POOCH-A-PALOOZA
You’re likely familiar with Cape Ann Animal Aid’s annual event, Dog Day, taking place every September at Stage Fort Park for more than a decade now. A celebration of all things canine, Dog Day has been a wonderful community event for the whole family. This year, Cape Ann Animal Aid has partnered with Pooch-A-Palooza to join forces and celebrate dogs in a much bigger way!
Instead of Stage Fort Park, you’ll be heading to Topsfield Fairgrounds this Setpember (6th & 7th) for all the fun! Pooch-A-Palooza, Inc. works to create festivals that bring dog owners together in support of organizations whose mission it is to promote the health and well-being of dogs. In 2015, Cape Ann Animal Aid will receive all of the proceeds from the $1.00 per dog festival admission fee and will also have booths at the event featuring adoptable dogs and fun activities to raise funds.
Festival organizers, Pooch-A-Palooza, Inc., are planning to welcome in excess of 10,000 dog lovers to the festival which features entertainment and activities for the entire family. Last year’s event was attended by 7,500 people and 4,000 dogs. Attractions included: The Jersey Disc Devils, Johnny Peers and the Muttville Comics, K-9 demonstrations by the Massachusetts State Police and the Essex County Sheriff’s Department. In addition, dog contests, try-it agility and a dog game zone kept four-legged attendees busy. A Kids’ Zone, complete with games, giant slide, and bouncy house provided plenty of activities for families, too.

PICKLES AND HAWKEYE
Let us introduce you to a fantastic pair of friends. Pickles and Hawkeye are like a modern day feline edition of The Odd Couple. Hawkeye is 8 years old and Pickles is about 5 months old. Hawkeye loves exploring and lives on the bold side of life while Pickles is more timid and reserved. Yet they were drawn to each other from the start. Pickles looks to Hawkeye for guidance and confidence, happily following his lead and finding comfort in his presence. Hawkeye looks after Pickles and even gets a little nervous when he cannot find her. In those situations, Hawkeye meows a few times and Pickles comes running to see what the fuss is about. Their fast friendship warms our hearts and we’ve decided it would be best to find them a home together.
Check out this sweet video and help us spread the word. We hope to see Pickles and Hawkeye living together in their new home very soon!

You Don’t Win Friends With Salad!
A wonderful time was had by all at Passport’s Restaurant’s superb “New Wines” pairing event. That’s Passport’s owner and chef Eric Lorden in the photo above. Don’t let the guise mislead; Passport’s has fabulous salads. The front of Eric’s t-shirt is all about oysters.
Each course of the four-course “New Wines” dinner was superb; the service provided by Nicole, India, and Sally was top-notch (and always so welcoming), and the new wines paired were exquisite. Several of the favorites-of-the-favorites were the Beef Bracciole, especially enjoyed by my husband, and mine (if I had to choose) was the exquisitely-cripsy-on-the-outside-sweetly-tender-and-richly-flavorful-on-the-inside Jerk Duck Leg, accompanied by a delightfully zippy mango salsa, and served with yummy mashed sweet potatoes.
Nick DiFazio from MS Walker was our sommelier and he did an outstanding job describing the wines. Tohu’s Sauvignon Blanc is a fabulous blend of grapefruit and other citrus flavors, and the Lamberti Prosecco–light, fresh, and sparkly, not overly sweet. The absolute knock out of the evening was Brazen’s Zinfandel. More than just a big bold red, the undertones were richly mellow and tasted wonderfully of dark cherries and was very chocolatey!
The new wines are a great addition to Passport’s stellar wine list and we are looking forward to trying them with the usual delicious dishes on the main menu, as well as with Eric’s fabulous nightly specials.
