yumm blueberries...

Cambridge Common is holding a blueberry beer dinner on August 9th. If this wasn't 35 bucks or I wasn't cheap, I would be all about this. Not only are blueberry beers delicious, they are going to have chilled blueberry soup, which is freaking delicious. If you are a fan of that berry that is blue, check you might want to check it out.

Thursday, August 9th
$35 (excluding tax & gratuity)

4th of July lowdown

I'm getting out of the city for the 4th: roughing it in the woods, breaking free from technology, getting some sun. I love the outdoors but I have to admit that sometimes I get sad I'm never around Boston for the 4th events. If you're sticking around, here is the lowdown on the events.

Fashionable and Trendy attire is a must.
Selective Door Policy
I apologize but I must comment on this, "Fashionable and Trendy attire is a must", this is the type of attitude that is turning the world to crap. These selective processes encourage citizens to fit into a mold, removing originality and shaming people into thinking they can't be themselves. Please do not attend this event!

For all you Harry Potter geeks

I'm gonna be honest that I haven't read any of the Harry Potter books or even seen the movies, but I know a lot of people that are huge fans. So, here are some details about the Harvard Square Release party.

The Harvard Coop will be distributing wristbands for RESERVED ORDERS starting at 5PM on July 20. Muggles who have placed a reservation for Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows with us will be able to be first in line. Wristbands must be picked up in person and are not available until 5 PM, July 20th. Anyone in line must have a wristband. Line will form after the concert (you'll get details when you pick your wristband up).

The first 500 people with a reserved order will receive a FREE Harry Potter gift bag when they pick their wristband. 8 lucky muggles will receive an extra prize in their gift bag (FREE Harry Potter DVD; Deluxe edition of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows; Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows on CD; 2 movie passes to see Harry Potter and the Order of The Phoenix). More details will be following regarding a costume contest, trivia contests, candid photos while in line, free treats & lots more - including a "fan fiction" contest. Harvard Coop wristbands will also entitle you to discounts or free beverages at several Harvard Square casual restaurant locations.

Anyone who has not placed a reservation with The Harvard Coop will also be able to pick up a different colored wristband as of 5PM on July 20th - muggles without reservations will join the line behind the reserved line. Wristbands must be picked up in person and are not available until 5 PM, July 20th. Anyone in line must have a wristband.
