Looking for an Arts & Crafts/Hobby space for adults - Is this a Unicorn?

There's a fantastic one in Baltimore where you literally just go in and use their space for whatever you want. They have tons of supplies, and some structured/organized classes and workshops. You have to reserve space, but you can literally walk in and use a sewing machine, make a collage, or even a friendship bracelet.

Does this even exist here?

For context, the place I'm referring to: https://www.baltimoremagazine.com/section/artsentertainment/the-craft-castle-hampden-adult-arts-and-crafts-studio/

Fresh turkey for Thanksgiving

Why is this so hard?

I'm trying to find a fresh raw turkey for Thanksgiving. I pre-ordered one from Gerard's turkey farm last year. It was like 11 lbs, clearly still frozen in the middle??? And $65!! I pre-ordered from a turkey farm to get a fresh turkey since all of the turkeys in the grocery stores have been frozen solid and not great the past few years. I don't get this. Why would I pay all that money and stand in line for an hour for yet another frozen turkey I could've picked up at the grocery store? Looking online now, I don't see any way to pre-order a guaranteed fresh turkey from anywhere. Am I missing something? Where do ppl get their turkeys from if they don't want frozen crap?

What happened to Busy Bee Preschools in East Bridgewater & Whitman?

I drove by them the other day and now they’re Cadence Academy. I worked there years ago for bit while I was in college. I’m so shocked they’re no longer Busy Bee!

Request... anyone with a Patriot Ledger account?

I've been trying to keep up with a news story about my childrens' former pediatrician who is accused of abusing his patients. I've set up a Google Alert for him. Most of the previous articles have been across multiple news platforms and easy to get. The latest update seems to only be on the Patriot Ledger.

Anyone out there have a digital subscription? Anyone willing to share the text of the article below? Thanks in advance.

South Shore Recommendations

Hi new neighbors!

My family and I recently landed in Hingham and we really like the town. However, I do miss a lot of things from my fifteen years in New York City and am hoping to get recommendations for where to seek out certain items.

Bakeries - in New York, I was a regular at Orwashers. A solid bread bakery is something I sorely miss!

Specialty grocers - I loved Garden of Eden and Agata and Valentina. Are there any amazing smaller grocers that carry international items as well as wonderful produce? We’ve been to Fruit Center and like it, but looking for more.

Farmers Markets - we were underwhelmed with the Hingham Farmers Market. Any better ones on the area? Also, any farm stores (not an NYC craving but from trips out to the North Fork and growing up in PA!) - things like jams, produce, pastas, etc.

Donuts - I know this sounds like it would be easy, but I’m vegan so it’s a bit harder! We landed in Seaport/Financial before we went to Hingham and liked Union Square and Blackbird. Any donut shops with good vegan options?

Any other recommendations from transplants or locals would be so appreciated! Thanks for creating such a wonderful community!

Humarock Beach Rentals 2025?

I thought I was starting early in this search but finding options for 4-5bdr houses actually on the beach are either already taken or just not available? If anybody has any leads or direction for real estate offices that might specialize in good-sized Humarock rentals or sites (tried most popular ones) I would really appreciate it.

Where to get hardwood / lumber?

Where's the best place to go for small amounts of hardwood? Say I want enough walnut or maple to make a small piece of furniture.

A 4x8 sheet of 3/4" maple ply at Lowe's is currently $85 - wouldn't mind finding that a bit cheaper too.

Wiffles (haircut)

Are wiffles still a thing for summer time haircuts? I know it was common back in the 80s-90s for preteen boys. I never knew if it was a generational or regional thing.

Need a new tax accountant?

I’m a CPA on the South Shore accepting new tax clients. I specialize in real estate, small business, and personal returns. I’m also an expert in cost segregation and the R&D tax credit.

If you own real estate and have heard of cost seg but aren’t sure how it works, let’s talk.

If you’re looking for a consultative CPA to help you instead of someone who just files your returns, send me a note!

Moving

Hi!

I’m looking to move with my very diverse family - I can’t find a lot of info on Whitman or Hanson, and we are liking this house in Hanson very, very much.

Education, diversity, some town events - just a nice area in general is what we’re looking for.

We hated Bridgewater and weren’t treated the best here and there, also just didn’t like it.. and I was raised in Quincy and am not going back.

We’re just trying to get a shorter commute compared to our almost 2 hours into Boston from borderline providence area.

We loveeeeee everything here so it’s hard but that house in Hanson is really nice.

Thanks all!

Hosting a Grief Workshop in Weymouth

All details and tickets here :)

https://facebook.com/events/s/the-light-in-loss-a-workshop-w/1823995798126071/

We often associate grief with death, but grief comes with the ending of any experience we live through. This workshop will allow you to open your heart to exploring and honoring your grief. Wherever you are in that process when you arrive to this workshop- is exactly where you’re suppose to be. This will be a safe space to release and find new perspective in the loss. All levels are welcome as we embark on a restorative flow with hip and heart openers, allowing ourselves to heal and receive energy that we can transmute into personal power. I will lend a helping hand through this process with reiki healing. Additionally, we will use breath work and meditation to create space that allows for deeper alchemy. A gentle suggestion to bring a journal and pen as you may have moments throughout our time together that you feel called to write down. There are so many of you here who I have connected deeply with about grief. This workshop will be a great opportunity for us to be in community with one another and find light in the loss.
