Recent Capes Treasures customers have exclaimed, 
“Thank goodness your not playing Michael Jackson…every other store in Provincetown is!” I have been on a Barry Manilow kick. “Farrah got shafted” is the general feeling among vacationers and I must agree. The woman was a Hair-do icon.
Mom caught me eating some spinach yesterday…in the spirit of the Provincetown Blessing of the Fleet Portuguese Festival she bought spicy tofu Portuguese sausage for the tofu prt of her typical breakfast of brown rice, and greens …my favorite part was the spinach!
Here’s Marcy showing what it looked like with Soygurt drizzled on it. She puts that Soygurt on everything…we liked it more when she put butter, cheese, and bacon on everything.
The parade is big event during the “Port-a ghee” Festival (as locals call it)…here is the famous Provincetown Town Crier and a very colorful lady.
Here is cart that could be used to haul Cod, or that Portuguese wine that, if spilled on Nana’s credenza, will instantly strip the finish off.
I, David personally did not go into town to see this parade, since my daily request to go outside was denied, but mom said the best part of the parade was The Coffee Pot float, which was a bunch of people sitting at a table drinking coffee on the back of flat bed truck, one of them head down furiously texting. This is something you see everywhere these days, sadly even on vacation. Beauty of nature surrounding them: whales, sanddunes, sunsets, lush gardens, a Cher drag queen on a scooter, and the occssional dude in “fanny-less” leather chaps, and they’ re looking down typing away! Well there he was, instead of munching on a fritter and waving to the crowd, he was texting! Something big must have been foot becuse when the float stopped to allow the dancers some space, he lept off and ran down the street!
View from MacMillian Peir right beore thunderstorms hit…no the black frame around the photo is not an artistic effect, the shuttery thing on my camera is unwilling to open 100% so I’ll need a new one. Daisy and Harley ’s mom consistently takes knockout photos so maybe I’ll get a camera like hers. My requirements would be somewhere in the $400. price range and bought locally…Looks like a trip to the city (Orleans) is in order. So stay tuned for better photos.
Here’s Kristopher…the only one in Truro who would participate in a “Flag” photohunt
And here’s the bike of a happy-go lucky local Provincetown resident. he can usually be spotted wearing Crocs of two different colors….
you know Crocs
Gee, I guess this segways into a shameless product plug
Thank You and enjoy Photohunt!
Little Stevie Katz’s Creamy Belly
I was over at Alex’s Blog and he was reporting on The LOL Cat Bible Translation Project. What the Hoomin Beanz have done is translate the common household bible, which one would find in any hotel room or in Nanna’s fancy cabinet next to the Bushmills, into LOL speak. LOL Speak has been popularized globally by the wildly successful site I Can Has Cheeseburger.
So I encourage you to have a read if your so inclined…LOL Speak can be intimidating for the novice, but there is a guide: How to Speak LOLCat
All Mine!
Unfortunately, the video file of David folding the laundry is too big to upload here, if you “friend” CapesTreasures on Facebook it is viewable there.
A sunny afternoon stroll down Arch St. in Provincetown’s East End revealed these flowers. It’s one of my favorite streets to venture down because there are a couple of houses about which I have concocted kinda elaborate scenarios about. More about them on another day.
In between raindrops this morning Mommy made wild salmon on the grill…with brown rice and vegetables, we approve 100%!
