5 Things (and Jon Lovitz) to Start the Day: July 20

Here are some tidbits from about town.

 

 

  1. New week on July 26, the Gulu Gulu Cafe will be celebrating its 5th anniversary. Congratulations on the amazing run!
  2. Just a reminder — the Muslim holiday Ramadan starts at sundown tonight, but the fasting began at dawn; Ramadan will end on Saturday, Aug. 18.
  3. The Greenhouse School will be holding a fire benefit bash on Saturday, July 28 from 4 p.m. until midnight. The school suffered a fire in April. We're glad they're making steps to recover!
  4. A little bird told us actor Jon Lovitz enjoyed a meal at the Howling Wolf last night. According to IMDB, Lovitz is a cast member in Grown Ups 2, so we're guessing he was in town for the filming of the movie, which is occurring in Marblehead right now. 
  5. We've said it a bunch this week, but we'll say it again. Thank you to all of you who have joined our ranks as bloggers. We've had more local voices than ever this week. Check out all blogs here.

I was sitting next to a man at the bar at the Wolf....and my friend kept saying he looked "just like John Lovitz". I'm embarrassed to say I didn't recognize the name OR the man....and it was him. Oops.
