This is a new one for me—a fish-share. The Yankee Fisherman’s Coop of Seabrook, NH will sell locally caught fish to local retail establishments and to any customer interested in weekly shares of shrimp and lobster.

Shogakukan’s illustrated sushi guide for the iPhone can answer your sushi identification questions. Back in November of 2008, Randye and I discovered another local sushi restaurant in Newburyport, Hana Japan. It’s a nice, clean restaurant situated in a back corner of the Port Plaza off of Rt. 113 as you get off Interstate 95, heading [...]

Randye and I spent the Friday after Valentine’s Day at our new favorite local restaurant, Ten Center Street–now that Theory has closed its doors. What it lacks in Theory’s ultra-coziness (I think it sat no more than 30 people), Ten Center Street makes up for in sumptuous culinary delights by Head Chef Harley Smith and [...]

Rather than going to a market, health food store or local coffee shops for fruit smoothies that cost upwards of $4 to $5 dollars, we’ve started making them at home. Even better, for the price of a smoothie out in the world, we can buy enough ingredients to make at least eight to ten smoothies [...]
