The Polite Wet Dogs of Provincetown Harbor

We all know the standing joke about the wet dog who runs to the nearest dry human and shakes the water off his or her fur. On our last visit to Provincetown, I watched this group of very polite wet dogs.

A kind man waited patiently on the sand to throw and rethrow the balls the dogs love to fetch.

Perhaps that man had worked on some special beach training to direct wet dogs racing his way to the place where he wanted them to shake.

If it did, the training was a success because these dogs did their shaking far from him.

This one had a good shake before leaving the water.

This one shook as soon as his paws hit the sand.

The trio would line up politely and wait for the next batch of balls to be tossed.

This young pup was the strongest swimmer but the other two did get their share of the prizes.

Thanks for the fun I had watching you romp and swim. See you all next trip!

What’s Open on July 4th, 2015 in Boston, Parking, Trash & MBTA Schedules

Here's a rundown of what's Open & Closed in Boston on July 4th, 2015 and changes to MBTA schedules. Plus: parking, street sweeping, trash, recycling, and other useful links.

This year July 4th falls on a Saturday. According to the official holiday information on the Secretary of State's website this will not be a three day weekend because, "All holidays falling on Sunday must be observed on Monday, under state law. Saturday holidays are observed on Saturday."

The city of Boston is taking a different approach. The holiday page on the city website reads:

Friday July 3rd Independence Day- City Holiday

"City offices closed. Sunday parking rules in effect. BCYF Community Centers are closed. The Mirabella and Clougherty Pools will be open regular hours. Please Note: All Boston Public Libraries will be open on July 3rd."

Follow us on Twitter to be notified of updates or save this page for future reference.

Financial Services: As the British would say, this is a "Bank Holiday" with both banks and the stock markets in the United States closed. Some international markets are open. Also, some banks may open certain branch offices – often those inside supermarkets. Check with your own financial institution for details.

Boston Parking: Sunday Parking rules apply. You don't have to feed the meters. Other parking rules apply. There will be some temporary parking restrictions and some street closures in the areas surrounding the Charles River Esplanade on July 4th. We'll add updates as they are published.

Towed Cars: The City says, "If you believe your vehicle was towed in Boston, then call either the Boston Police Tow Line at 617-343-4629 or the Boston Tow Lot at 617-635-3900 to locate the vehicle, or search the online towing database by license plate" at the City's Towed Car page.

Street Sweeping: The City says, "Daytime street sweeping is suspended on city holidays, but nighttime sweeping schedules remain in effect. Constituents are advised to call 617-635-4500 for exact details."

Boston Trash: from the City Site:

"Independence Day Week Friday, Monday, June 29 – Saturday, July 4, 2015 NO DELAY of residential trash and recycling collections in all sections of the City."

MBTA tips for those attending the Esplande Concert and Fireworks:

Customers are urged to take public transportation to and from Fourth of July events and advised to check T-Alerts for the most up-to-date service information during the holiday.

As a reminder, bicycles are not allowed on any subway lines for the entire day on the Fourth of July. Bicycles are also prohibited on inbound Commuter Rail trains from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. as well as on outbound trains after 4 p.m.

Beginning at 2 p.m., subway service on all lines will operate at rush-hour levels to accommodate increased holiday ridership. Fares will be free after 9:30 p.m.

Customers should also note that all MBTA parking garages and the Wellington Station lot will be pay-on-entry and cash-only on the Fourth of July in order to ensure all customers exit in a timely manner. Due to heavy parking demand, some MBTA parking garages and lots may fill more quickly than normal. Customers planning to park in an MBTA garage or lot should plan accordingly.

Save storage space with these collapsible coolers. We love Arctic Zone Coolers. They're perfect for small city homes. We have a version of the Arctic Zone Ultra 50 can model, and it's amazing at keeping things chilled! We not only use it for picnics, but grab it to go grocery shopping.

Where to Recycle Eyeglasses in Boston – Updating a Reader Favorite
Time to recycle all those prescription and non-prescription eyeglasses, sunglasses, reading glasses that are tucked away in drawers and packed in old, "I-may-need-this-someday" or "Maybe-this-will-come-back-in-style" boxes.

Here are a few that I had tucked away. Yes some of them may come back into style, but as I set them out for a photo, I remembered which pair kept popping a lens because the screw hole was worn and how heavy those over sized sunglasses are compared to today's lighter frames.

With a bit of research, I found three places where you can drop off donations of eyeglasses:
- Massachusetts Eye and Ear Optical Shop in the West End of Boston confirmed that they accept eyeglasses for recycling. You can drop them off in the box in the lobby (shown above) or on the first floor in the optical shop. Contact information is at this link. (map)
- New England College of Optometry said they would be happy to take donations at their front desk. Contact information for the school is at this link. (map)
- Brigham And Women's Optical Services will also accept your donation. Contact information is at this link. (map)
If you're one of our readers outside the Boston area, you can ship your donation to a Lions Club eyeglass recycling center. Here's the list.

The photo above is a Lions Club collection box. You may see one of these in other optical shops in addition to the three listed here. If you do, let us know by adding a comment to this post, tweeting the location to @BostonZest, or sending us an email.

If you come across this information long after June 2015, I suggest you call the locations to confirm that they are still taking part in a program that will use the glasses.

One final tip – check over the glasses you are recycling the way you might if you were donating a box of old jewelry. We have a friend who collects antique eyeglasses and he spotted some collectables among ours.

The ones in the photo above turned out to be 14K gold, quite old, and very collectable. But, even some older designer frames may have people willing to pay top dollar to add to their collection. A few minutes on Etsy or ebay could give you some indication of value.

Oh, we both love this inexpensive but protective eyeglass case we found on Amazon. We've had our for a couple of years now and consider these one of our better buys. They just work, Large Sunglasses/Eyeglass Case with Zipper.

Stuff We Love: Arctic Zone Folding Coolers

When you live in a tiny home, you appreciate things that are compact, sturdy, and exceptionally well made like the Arctic Zone Coolers.

Here's our big cooler that gets heavy use. They call it an Ultra High Performance 50 Can Cooler that Folds Flat by Arctic Zone. We've never filled it with cans to check but we do use it for tasks where large capacity is important and great insulation is critical.

This cooler lives folded compactly, out of the way, on a hook high on our entry closet wall. It has VELCRO® straps that keep it from popping open.

We unfold it and leave it for our Boston Organics deliveries. Because there's no space to store their totes between deliveries, we take advantage of their willingness to transfer our order into this handy folding cooler.

Its super insulation is important when we travel. We pack frozen containers of our Westie Poppy's homemade raw diet with containers of ice in this cooler. And, it has never failed to arrive at our destination in rock solid frozen condition even after hours in a car.

Naturally, we use this when we rent a Zipcar to do a major shopping trip to Market Basket or Costco.

We just added this Arctic Zone Expandable Lunch Pack to our farmers market shopping kit. Now that we have so many fish, meat, and dairy options at the markets, we want to have a small cooler with us on every market trip so we don't have to rush home with our purchases. We find that we're also using it to bring snacks to our roof deck and for a quick lunch picnic.

We've been using this company's products for many years and should our current editions of their products begin to show some wear in a few more years, we would absolutely buy the newest versions.

West West Blue Cheese & Brooklyn Brewery’s K is for Kriek

On a recent visit to Formaggio Kitchen South End, I asked the cheesemonger to suggest a beer or ale that would go with the piece of West West Blue Cheese from Parish Hill Creamery in Vermont we were buying.

I had just sampled the cheese as he described the flavor profiles of a range of craft beers he recommended pairing with this richly flavored blue. Then he said he had recently tasted Brooklyn Brewery's K is for Kriek with another big blue and was very happy with the match.

Since the Formaggio staff has done a great job of matching beverages with cheese for us in the past and intrigued by the description, I added a bottle to my basket. Later that evening, Ed (the beer drinker in the house) applauded the choice.

West West Blue From Parish Hill Creamery

This cheese comes from a very interesting Vermont Creamery. We love their tagline, “Seasonal, hand made, raw milk cheeses inspired by traditional DOP Italian cheeses.”

About the West West Blue, they say:

"Traditional aged, two-curd Gorgonzola, West West Blue is made with whole, raw milk from Elm Lea Farm and aged 90 – 180 days. The edible rind surrounds an interior with openings filled with streaks of blue mold, a creamy texture and a spicy, earthy flavor."

We both loved the rich, deep, almost caramel flavor notes and the spicy, sharp, taste bud, wake-up snap of the blue veining. It was also very good with both the Nino Franco Rustico Prosecco I was drinking and the Sardinian Parchment crackers we served with it that evening.

As for the double "west" in the name, the creamery is located in the town of Westminster West, Vermont.

Brooklyn Brewery K is for Kriek

There is a lot going on in this bottle of ale!

Brooklyn Brewery says:

"To this beer’s subtle marriage of malts, dark candi sugar, local wildflower honey and zing of orange peel, we added tart dried whole Montmorency cherries from Michigan. Around this, we wrapped a barrel of charred American bourbon oak. The sugar of the cherries began to ferment away. The barrels hissed. And we waited.

Six months later, the beer emerged with a glowing red color, vibrant acidity, complex fruit aromatics, and a foundation of oak flavors, its strength moving past 10%. Its transformation almost complete, the beer joined priming sugar, Champagne yeast and wild Brettanomyces yeasts in the bottle and underwent a third fermentation. And we waited yet again."

Now, after a year of waiting, beer lovers have the opportunity to share a bottle with friends. And, we do suggest sharing, since this big 25.4 ounce bottle contains a 10.1% alcohol by volume brew.

So the next time you buy a great cheese from a great cheese shop like Formaggio, remember that the wines and beers on their shelves were picked to match the food they sell. They are in the business of paying attention to nuances of flavor and will be happy to help you match a beverage with a particular cheese or other foods you've purchased.

Here are other posts from our Cheese Collection!

What's on your Cheese shopping list? Here are some great books about cheese. These make wonderful gifts for a cheese lover. And, when you shop Amazon from here, they put some coins in our tip jar.

Sunday Dog Lucy Is Settling into the City

We first met Sunday Dog Lucy when she had just arrived in Boston and was walking on Marlborough Street because it was quieter and less scary than the busier streets in the Back Bay.

When we ran into this sweet Tibetan Terrier again recently, she was relaxed enough to pull up a bit of sidewalk and settle in while the people around her talked about how well she was doing. She followed the conversation like a tennis spectator, turning her beautiful brown eyes from speaker to speaker.

She's developed a bit of city dog sophistication and nonchalance even when we pointed the big, evil, black eyes of our camera lenses her way. The wag and smile she had given us when we approached turned into a supermodel pose of utter indifference to the paparazzi.

She did consent to one formal headshot but decided that a smile was too much to ask. She wants to keep her new reputation as a savvy, street smart, staunch city girl.

See you soon Lucy and we won't tell anyone that you just love a cuddle on a park bench right in the middle of the big, bad city.
