HELLO from the hydrangeas!

Hi everybody! I hope you all have had a great week. Welcome to another SSS Newsletter. I want to say thanks for all the great feedback on the “Deep Dives & Light Laughs Podcast”. In case you missed it, I was the guest on their most recent episode. It was a lot of fun - Larry & Lindsay do a really great, really local podcast. They’ve had guests from Levitate, SlackTide Coffee Roasters, and many other great local brands and local finds. Check out their podcast wherever you stream stuff like that. Also, I wanted to share a photo that people really seemed to connect with on my socials last week. I woke up and the sunrise was big, bright, and orange. I remembered our hydrangeas, which are so vibrantly purple this year, and decided to snap a pic on my phone to see how the bright orange sunrise would print on them. I think it came out cool. Also I thought I’d share it because since this pic my poor hydrangeas have begun losing their yearly battle against the heat. It was a beautiful season though! Thanks for being here. Let’s check the Stuff…

Italian in Abington and Marshfield so Good My Grandma Would Be Proud… and she’s not even Italian

I love when I hit a restaurant - new to me - that just makes me want to applaud in the dining room. MIA Regazza isn’t new to many of you. But we were out to eat at Sorelle’s in Abington with my wife Kristin and her co-worker friend Alex. Alex is from the area and couldn’t believe we hadn’t heard of MIA Regazza. She said the food was insane and addicting.

We made it to MIA Regazza and I can confirm from my point of view anyway: the food is indeed insane and addicting.

The sauce has that legit, you-can’t-teach-that, slow-cooked, Sunday-cooking all-day taste. That, cranked up to a level I cannot achieve. And my chicken sandwich was so fresh - the idea of it and the caesar salad that was on it. I forgot to mention the oozy mozzarella cheese that was on my sandwich in the video below. Check it out in person! MIA Regazza in Abington and Marshfield. And check it out in video form below! (PS - Kristin’s marsala was the winner!)

Mother Earth’s New Favorite Store Just Opened in Marshfield

It’s a space that’s nice just to be in. It’s esthetically a very pretty store. And, more importantly, it’s helping save the Earth.

Four Corners Supply Co. already has a community of eager supporters, customers, and friends. The store has been refilling shampoos, laundry detergents, and body washes for years in Hanover. The store just made the hop from Hanover to Marshfield, where it opened this week next to Levitate/across the street from Dunkin’.

If you’ve wanted to dip your toe into a more natural, more sustainable lifestyle - DON’T FEEL INTIMIDATED - walk right in! Julia, the owner, is fabulous and helpful. There are so many awesome products in her store. Check out our video preview:

And finally - The Revere Beach International Sand Sculpting Competition is going on this weekend. That’s NORTH shore. Here on the South Shore I’ll be struggling to make a sand hump with my feet while sitting in my beach chair on Nantasket Beach. Feel free to stop by and take some photos. Kidding. Make memories this weekend my friends, see you next Saturday morning! ❤️
