Bluer Than Blue
Winter can be a time of darkness in more ways than one. Being a cheerful Granite Stater in mid- to late-autumn can be a challenge. The foliage is gone, winter’s darkness looms and holiday pressures mount. It’s particularly tough in 2008, after we’ve endured months of bleak economic news. Since bouts of feeling blue are a normal part of human…
A Fireplace for Every Home
Gas, electric and other fireplace alternatives are no longer the unsightly, loud units you may remember. Today there are a number of beautiful stoves that will bring warmth and style into your home. *** The cold weather season is officially here, and isn’t going anywhere for a long, long time. It seems that nearly every iconic image of New Englanders…
Your Mailbox Needs Attention
But, alas, straightening up “Old Tippy” makes it easier for the hooligans. *** Our mailman here in Thornton recently sent me a letter.

Evan Hennessey, whom Seacoast foodies remember fondly from 43 Degrees North, unveiled his first new menu in September as the new executive chef at The Dunaway.

Don’t (Just) Vote
Here in New Hampshire there’s a lot of talk about “participatory democracy.” Our state is known for its citizen-powered state government, for town meetings and our insistence upon local control. Sometimes these terms are used nostalgically, sometimes dismissively by people who think they are either problematic (i.e. our sprawling underpaid legislature), archaic (our underattended town meetings) or mythic (our dubious…
