We’ll miss you Caitlyn!

If you haven’t heard it already, our Crackskull’s Allstar CAITLYN is leaving us.  She’s be moving back home in Mid-June, so if you haven’t said goodbye yet, do it soon…you don’t have much time left!

Newmarket will miss Caitlyn’s smile, her sense of humor, her knack at writing inappropriate poetry during our monthly poetry readings.  For those of you that know Caitlyn, you also know how selfless and giving she is.  This is all second, of course, to her stunning good looks.  She will be missed terribly.

We love you Caitlyn.

Old Newmarket Pics

These were left to me in a folder when I bought Crackskull’s.  I believe they are also available through the Newmarket Historical Society.  Funny enough, it doesn’t look that different now.  Click on pics to enlarge.

Opinions on Toilet Decals?

I know, it’s a little odd…but it appears that decorating your toilet is now all the rage.  How did I miss this?  <insert sarcasm here> Well, have no fear, we’re on it.  Here are some examples of these trendy little items on none other than my favorite website, Etsy.com.  And yes, I am serious about putting one of these on our toilet.  Call me crazy, I think they’re cute.

Between the Bread

Many of you were sad when the Main Street Deliworks closed last year…Yet another downtown business lost to a poor economy and downtown construction.  During my pregnancy, they were the only ones in town that could fulfill my egg salad cravings.  What was going to come of the deli?

Well, you’ll be happen to know that next Monday, May 4th, Newmarket will again have a Deli.  Between the Bread (props to Megan), will offer not only an exceptional sandwich menu, but also soups, a salad bar, gelato, and more!  And they’re right here in downtown Newmarket. Thanks and Congrats to Jeremy Adams of Mama Lena’s Newmarket and Brian Adams for making this happen…Just another reason to come downtown!

Thank you, Arlon!

We’ve had a screen door sitting in the backroom at Crackskull’s now for TWO years.  Summer rolls around every year, and people always question why our door isn’t open to let in the fresh air.  And I never have a good excuse, I just “haven’t gotten around to it yet”.  Well, at least a couple people got sick of hearing about my procrastination.

We now have a beautiful screen door, thanks to Arlon Chaffee of LOCO Sports, here in Newmarket.  Arlon was nice enough to sand, paint, rescreen, and install our door…AND in record time.  Thanks also to Tom Johnson, who brought his saw in to trim the bottom of the door.

You guys are great!
