recycling old damaged sweaters?

[kalimba21.livejournal.com]

Anyone know of where I could bring old soft cashmere and wool sweaters that got damaged from moths but are now clean and holey? I was going to toss them, but realized that some people cut these up and use them for other stuff.

Thanks for any insight.

Groupon for 60% Off at Big Picture Framing

[dashford.livejournal.com]

Today's Groupon is $40 for $100 worth of custom framing at all 12 Big Picture Framing locations, including 1100 Mass. Ave. the 2044 Mass. Ave. store near Porter Square.  They have been recommended here as perhaps the best framers to work with in the local area.  The Groupon is good for six months.

Note that Big Picture Framing also has a 50% off sale that runs for the entire month of November.  The Groupon can't be combined with the sale, but is a bigger discount for orders of $120 or less (plus it's good into May 2011).

Here's the link, which includes a referral code (thanks!):

Gluten Free Cake?

[stormsdotter.livejournal.com]

Once of my friends is allergic to gluten, and I'm having a small birthday party this weekend. Can anyone recommend a (1) safe and (2) delicious place to buy a cake for about seven people?

EDIT: Cakes are one of the few things I make poorly, even from a mix. I'm also worried about my kitchen contaminating the cake and prefer to buy from a bakery.

Church bells/chimes every 15 mins

[candyleonard.livejournal.com]

I just moved from Davis to North Cambridge, a block from St. John the Evangelist Church on Mass Ave. Has anyone else noticed and/or been disturbed by the chimes that sound every 15 minutes, from 9am to 8pm every day - making it impossible to sleep past 9am or nap during the day?

Magic show!

Hi everybody,

My landlord is putting on a magic show at Somerville Theatre this Saturday, November 6 at 2:30 and 7:30.

Here's a link to a (small) poster

And here's another one.

I haven't seen the show but he's a pretty nifty guy.
