Things are Happening in Magnolia – Do You Want to Know What?
Downtown Magnolia News From The 525 Including Opening Date! (Former Space OfThe Patio)
Thank you, Joey!
Here’s our mission statement:
Downtown Magnolia is undergoing a revitalization. At the heart of this transformation, is a gathering spot that will bring people together. Owner/Developer Eric Loiacano has partnered with the Serenitee Restaurant Group to build a restaurant that will serve as that meeting place for the community.
Appropriately named 525, the restaurant’s neighbors may be the only ones to get the connection reference, but everyone is going to love the food! 525 will feature creative tavern fare with New England staples, served in a comfortable setting. The bar will boast great cocktails, wines by the glass and ice cold beers. With plenty of outdoor seating available, 525 will be the perfect après beach destination this summer.
525 will be opening on Thursday, May 8th
Big Brother???
I’ve asked this question before, but never on GMG. I have yet to get an answer.
Can anyone out there tell me what these things are??? They look like polaroid pictures. Speed checkers, car counters, solar gizmos, mere reflectors??? Big Brother seems to be watching for something, I guess.
I used to notice one random one on a rock…somewhere near Exit 15 heading North on 128 in Manchester. That damn thing wouldn’t budge. It stood there through rain, snow, wind…you name it. It kind of looked like an old iPod glued to a rock. I became a bit obsessed with checking to see if it was still standing day after day. It always was. Sooner or later, I started to notice them everywhere. Some are bright blue….some are black or grey. They are on street signs, on the medium strips, on guard rails….everywhere! For some reason, I only really notice them going to and from work in Beverly, but I did notice a bunch near Gillette Stadium in the fall while stuck in traffic leaving a Patriots game. With so many of them now, my love affair with the first lonely one on the rock has diminished. I keep forgetting to check if it is still there. I’m sure it is.
Ummm, and, for the record, before Joey goes all crazy-ass LMGTFY on me. I have tried “Googling” it several different ways and haven’t had any luck!

Sista’s Helpful Tips
“Wild Italian Origano”…a must in every pantry!
One hasn’t truly tasted “Oregano,” until they have tasted “Wild Italian Origano!” The flavor, of “Wild Italian Origano”, has a more pungent oregano flavor then any other dried oregano on the market, that I have tasted. Trust me on this one… without fail this oregano brings the flavors in my recopies to a higher level every time I use it. After testing the difference between “regular Oregano” and this aromatic “Wild Italian Origano” I immediately became hooked. I only use fresh or dried “Wild Italian Origano” when preparing dishes in my kitchen!
Use up your supply of average tasting oregano…
…and making a special trip Joe Pace & Sons in Saugus Ma. to purchase this flavorful dried herb. The “Wild Italian Origano” is sold in bunches, for $4.99.

Video- Back Shore Gloucester MA 04/01/14
Rendezvous with French Cinema at the Cape Ann Community Cinema
Ipswich Bay
Looking westward along Coffin’s Beach to the houses on Two Penny Loaf, across the Essex River to Cranes Beach and beyond to Plum Island. From this vantage, on a clear day, we can also see the Isle of Shoals on the New Hampshire – Maine border. It still amazes me that just 15 minutes away by car is Niles Beach from which we can view the Boston skyline, so that from two locations in the City of Gloucester we can enjoy the view of more than 50 miles of beautiful New England shoreline.
