FS: IKEA Coffee/TV Table

[lillibet.livejournal.com]

Last week we bought this table for my Mom, but it turns out to be too big. Anyone want a brand new, fully assembled coffee/tv table? We can deliver it to your door. Asking $40--it's brand new, expertly put together and we'll bring it right to you--but taking all offers.

Thanks!

2 $20 tickets to sleep no more or the donkey show

[cerylium.livejournal.com]

Hello,

I have 2 tickets for a reduced price of $20 that can be used for either ART's Sleep No More (which is FANTASTIC and everyone should see) or The Donkey Show (haven't seen it).  The tickets can be redeemed for any day that isn't sold out.  Sleep no more has good availability for tickets from january 14- february 7

I will put in the order and pick them up at the ART box office and then deliver them to you in the square.

Please let me know if you are interested!  Ideally, i'd like to call the box office today or tomorrow to make this reservation, so a quick response would be great!

Big Snow, Big Show, er, I mean Christmas Cantata, Sunday at 10

Dear Neighbors,

Our annual Christmas Cantata will go on, snow or not, tomorrow morning at 10 AM. We've prepared a wonderful Cantata, and we will present a holy word in music and scripture. There will be singing, drumming, praying, all followed by a festive brunch.

You're invited to brunch.

Need a place to go to share the spirit of the season? We'd love to see you and feed you.

Article about Harold Moore, the Spare Change Guy!

[lizzielizzie.livejournal.com]

Few city-dwellers give much thought to the people that they meet each day. Take Harold Moore. The newspaper vendor, 48, held a cane in his left hand and the Dec. 17 issue of "Spare Change News" in his right at the Davis Square T stop in Somerville. "Season of Giving," the headline read. Little did Moore know that the very next morning, a gift would come to him - and not just a Dunkin' Donuts gift card, either.

This season, patron Tom Chevalier organized about 20 people to raise $275 for the hard-working newspaper man. Moore doesn't earn that much in a week.

Anywhere to buy a Honk! shirt?

Just wondering if there might be a store that has Honk! shirts?

Red Velvet Cake

[junesrose.livejournal.com]

Hello all. Faithful lurker but seldom poster here....so be kind.

Just wondering if any of you happen to have/recommend a recipe for Red Velvet Cake. My daughter and I are thinking of making it for Christmas, but as I've never made it before, I have no idea where to begin; don't know what it tastes like, or what it's supposed to taste like. It's just RED. (my fav color) :D Which we thought would be cool for Christmas.

Yes, I can google REDVELVETCAKE, but thought I'd ask for something from a live person for a change. Well, as alive as you can be on the other end of this machine, especially after a weekend Blizzard (in which I have YET to see snow falling...).

Anyhow, I want cake. :D Got any good recs?? Much appreciated.

They're Towing in North Cambridge

[perich.livejournal.com]

In case you thought they might not be serious about the Snow Emergency (see related posts), I just drove by a line of tow trucks parked or working on Sherman St. About six of them, I'd guess. The locals were standing on their porches laughing.

Make sure you're not parked in a Snow Emergency lane. That is all.
