Tips for getting fit for warmer days!
With hints of spring starting to flirt with us, I can't help but get inspired to get outside and hit the pavement again. I don’t know about you, but I am definitely feeling the effects of the ruthless winter that we all just experienced. My body is a unique mix of sluggish and stir crazy all rolled into one, so I feel extra inspired to make up for lost time and get back outside and start running to feel like me again. But exercise alone wont be enough, its time to start eating right too. As someone who let exercise go by the wayside for well more than a decade of my life, I’m proud to say I picked up aggressive street running last year. When I began, I was badly out of shape. My body had felt the effects of 13 years of neglect. I knew I …

When I think of summertime food all across the country, a few places come to mind: fresh lobster on the coast of Maine, crab cakes in Maryland, grilled tropical catch of the day in Hawaii. But above all, what really brings on the nostalgia is fried seafood in Rhode Island. We are privileged to have so many great “shacks” as we proudly refer to them all across our coastline. Rhode Island is well-respected across the nation for its invention of the Rhode Island-style chowder and clam cakes. We are also very well known for our unwavering love for fried clams and fish and chips. All summer long on the beaches of Narragansett, Scarborough, Newport and the Block, natives are fighting for the title of “Best Of” and local favorite. I can already …

The “Baker's Baker” has being doing it right since 1907.
If you’re out shopping at a local grocery store and stop by the bread aisle, chances are good you’ll be buying something made right here in East Providence and you don’t even know it. That’s because Mrs. Kavanagh’s Bakery on North Broadway has been baking bread for the big boys for more than 50 years—right here in Rumford. “We’re the small big bakery, if that makes sense,” said T.J. Pascalides, a third-generation baker in the family. It all started when William Vican, T.J.’s grandfather, opened the family’s original bakery on North Main Street in Providence more than a hundred years ago. After building the business so big that “the little bakery that could” was busting at the seams, the family upgraded to their current location in Rumford …

I'm not a food reviewer, but I love great food. From seaweed to subs, I don't discriminate. And hovering around the top of that list is a good old down and dirty steak sandwich. I've done my share of travel to find them. I've gone to Philadelphia more than once just to have one of those famous cheesesteak sandwiches. So I recently decided to see if anyone around East Providence could cure my craving locally. The real deal sub in Philly is made with shaved ribeye steak and Cheez Whiz, or provolone if you feel like getting fancy. It's the bread that makes it: soft, fresh grinder rolls that soak up all that cheesesteak goodness. I've been around to some local sub shops, but never really found exactly what I was looking for until I bumped …
