Hi there! My name is Gigi, and this is actually my second time at BHS. I thought I had found my forever home about 5 years ago, but was recently returned because I wasn’t getting along with the other cat in the home. There could be many reasons for this, so if you have another cat that does not in any way mean we wouldn’t get along! I’m a sweet girl, and I like to be rubbed and pet. Mmm, I love attention! I’m really hop-ing that this time around I’ll find my true forever home, where I can make a special someone a great companion. Please stop by to meet me soon! My name is Pluto. I’m at BHS because my guardian moved away, and didn’t take me. Even so, I am an extremely happy, fun loving guy who loves playing with kids and grown-ups. I’ve gotten a reputation for… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/adopt-a-pet-baltimore-humane-societys-pets-of-the-week-25/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/adopt-a-pet-baltimore-humane-societys-pets-of-the-week-25/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/9CA_qwthmoI/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-week-in-review-top-stories-this-week-in-the-baltimore-fishbowl-2/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 18:30:31 +0000 Susan Dunn http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/?p=19022 Read More]]> Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-week-in-review-top-stories-this-week-in-the-baltimore-fishbowl-2/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-week-in-review-top-stories-this-week-in-the-baltimore-fishbowl-2/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/bd1q4aNO8W4/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/pigtown-design-historic-peggy-stewart-house-in-annapolis-for-sale/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 18:00:17 +0000 Meg Fielding http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/?p=19009 Read More]]>
When I lived in Annapolis many years ago, the Peggy Stewart House was a part of my daily life.I would spot it frequently as I walked to and from work, and on my jaunts around town.It’s now on the market for $3.2 million. The Peggy Stewart House got its name from the ship named after Anthony Stewart’s daughter, Margaret. Stewart, a merchant and importer, lived in the home for seven years. in 1774, he returned to the US with a ship full of tea, paid the duty on the tea which was a violation of non-importation agreement. There was a riot, and Stewart was forced by the mob to set fire to his ship and its cargo. Stewart fled Annapolis soon after. TheStewart House includes five bedrooms, four bathrooms, eight garage parking spaces (which may account for the high price – parking is at a premium in Annapolis, year-round), a roof deck,and… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/pigtown-design-historic-peggy-stewart-house-in-annapolis-for-sale/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/pigtown-design-historic-peggy-stewart-house-in-annapolis-for-sale/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/tQ1c0rK074c/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/june-workshops-at-the-creative-alliance/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 17:57:51 +0000 D.

Summer is almost upon us. And though adults don’t get the kind of three month summer vacay that kids do, summer does tend to bring with it at least a vacationy feeling. It’s a time to dig into projects, try something new, and try to at least tap into that youthful self-improvement drive. Whether it’s planting a garden, taking up a musical instrument, or working on your backstroke, summer is a great time to get into something new and potentially fruitful. All this is made even easier by the plentiful workshops being offered by the (air conditioned) Creative Alliance next month. We’re letting you know now since there’s a good chance these will fill up and sell out. And many of them are events you just don’t want to miss. The Creative Alliance always hosts a variety of weekly activities—including life drawing classes and screenwriters meet ups. But this month there… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/june-workshops-at-the-creative-alliance/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/june-workshops-at-the-creative-alliance/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/uA6oy6raZcw/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/event-of-the-day-dublin-5-at-belvedere-square/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 17:28:02 +0000 The Eds. http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/?p=19021 Read More]]>

Every year, we invite local high school seniors to share with us their senior speech, a tradition at many local private schools where a student addresses the student body on a subject of his or her choice. Today we feature the speech of Gilman School Senior Zane MacFarlane. Zane is senior class president and played the lead role of Joe (Boyd) Hardy in the recent musical production of “Damn Yankees.” He will attend Pomona College in the fall.  Chirp, Zane.- The Eds. Zane MacFarlane The drums were slow at first as they ran around outside, “Dum, dumdumdum, Dum, dumdumdum…” Meanwhile in my cabin, I was lying down on top of my bunk bed, staring at the rafters. It was my third year at Camp Virginia, a place I loved and returned to every summer, and tonight the honor council – the most respected group of campers – were going around, inducting… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/gilman-senior-zane-macfarlane-on-lifes-magic-moments/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/gilman-senior-zane-macfarlane-on-lifes-magic-moments/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/ef3CmKsYBeQ/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/charm-city-cook-friends-and-farms/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 15:57:02 +0000 Amy Langrehr http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/?p=19006 Read More]]>
Going local, for me, is part of my everyday life. I can run errands in my ‘hood and see great people like Jed and Carey at The Wine Source, Robin at Howl (they sell chicken feed!), Susannah at Ma Petite Shoe and CHOUX, Jenny at Zensations by Jen,  Deb at Falkenhan’s Hardware and so many more. So, my love of all things local has made me a big fan of CSAs – Community Supported Agriculture. For many years now, I’ve been a CSA member with a local farm, One Straw Farm. I like knowing where my food comes from, and more importantly (to me), I want to support local people. Joan and Drew Norman of One Straw are such great people and they’ve taught me so much over the years – especially about food I’d never cooked before. For example, my favorite thing to make last year was butternut squash and celeriac soup – who knew?! Joan also gave me my first flock of baby chicks AND… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/charm-city-cook-friends-and-farms/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/charm-city-cook-friends-and-farms/ http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BaltimoreFishbowl-FullFeed/~3/zbKCmA2zuzY/ http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-singing-professor-songwriting-101-at-ub/#comments Fri, 24 May 2013 15:30:11 +0000 B.

courtesy of UB University Relations/photo by JJ Chrystal If University of Baltimore Professor Roger Friskey’s brisk attitude and winning grin remind you of Robert Preston in the film classic The Music Man, in which, of course, Preston’s charming band leader character only pretends to teach teens to play their expensive instruments, cease the comparisons at cosmetic ones. Yes, Friskey’s teaching a brand-new songwriting class as part of the summer schedule at UB; true, Friskey encourages anyone and everyone to register, even those without a hint of musical training or ability. But the guitar-strumming, Renaissance businessman, who typically lectures on persuasive and public relations writing for the university, isn’t promising to turn his students into pop stars or producers overnight. He’s just saying all are welcome to join the lively workshop discussion of songwriting technique and the seminar chat about the fast-changing face of the music industry. And all are encouraged to… Read More]]> http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-singing-professor-songwriting-101-at-ub/feed/ 0 http://www.baltimorefishbowl.com/stories/the-singing-professor-songwriting-101-at-ub/
