Pinkberry not giving up on Davis Square - now has petition online

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/pinkberrydavissquare/

"We, the undersigned, support the application to locate a Pinkberry frozen yogurt shop at 263 Elm Street, a/k/a 5 Davis Square in the Davis Square section of Somerville. We believe that there is a need for Pinkberry, despite the presence of other frozen yogurt sellers in Davis Square, because the Pinkberry product and experience are unique, in part, due to the fact that the yogurt is uniquely tangy, the shop is not self-service, and the ambiance and products appeal to a clientele not currently being met by other businesses in Davis Square."

Experienced Nanny / Pet-Sitter For Hire

[willowjar.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster. I didn't see anything against this type of post in the rules, but if it's not allowed, mods, feel free to delete!

Basically, I'm a part-time nanny in the Somerville/Medford area, and I'm trying to expand my services. I currently work for a lovely family I found on care.com; however, I'm only working part time and I need to supplement my income. So if you need (or have friends who need) a weekend/date night sitter, please contact me! I can give you a full list of credentials upon contact, but the short of it is that I am a 29 y/o female, in graduate school, with three years of previous experience, plus the aforementioned nannying job. And yes, I am CPR/First-Aid trained and certified. So if you are planning to hit some holiday parties, or just want to get out on a weekend, and need someone to watch the kids, I'm your girl.

Additionally, I also have experience in pet-sitting and dog-walking, so if anyone is looking for either a regular or one-time pet sitter (need someone to feed your pets while you take a holiday vacation?) don't hesitate to contact me as well! Comment or PM me here for more information/email.

Thanks!

sprout spaghetti dinner on Monday night!

[shduff.livejournal.com]

This month's spaghetti dinner is about travel: the epic voyage, the summer get-away, the work commute, the journey of life. From the perspectives of our performers, we will consider questions about where we're going and where we've been, trying to understand how we've gotten where we are. Join us Monday December 10 at 7:30PM at sprout's studios at 339R Summer St. in Somerville. We'll have dinner and drinks at 7:30 and performances will begin at 8PM. There is a $10 suggested donation, but all are welcome!

This month, our performers will include:

+ Beth Nixon with a suitcase show contemplating the death of her father and dentist
+ Sara Peattie performing a toy theater show entitled Ithaca
+ short, 3-slide travelogues by spaghetti dinner attendees
+ The Spaghetti Dinner Funeral Band!

>> If you'd like to share some images from a recent vacation or personal travel experience OR help cook spaghetti on Monday night, email me!

>> If you'd like to play with the funeral band, come to sprout tomorrow (Sunday December 9) at 3PM for a rehearsal! All instruments and voices welcome!

>> If you'd like to just come to the event, see you Monday!

hurray!

boxes near clarendon hill bus stop.

broken down, I have a 2-foot-tall pile of medium to large boxes that were used by my roommate when he moved in. They are idea for moving, storage, or building a fort with, and I would like to give them to you.

thespian@sleepingcat.com for cardboard box magic.

(I also have a double bed with box frame, but while that room is filled with boxes it is hard for me to get to it to take a picture. if you want a bed for free, though, you might enjoy this one)
