We are thrilled to welcome Amber Boland and Blue Sparrow Kitchen to the Norwich Square! It is wonderful to have people of all ages hanging out again: eating, visiting, and playing around the bookstore - both the real one and the child-sized version on the lawn!
Amber was born and raised in NH and lives in Lyme. Her husband, Kurt, a property manager and contractor, built the welcoming and comfortable space in the former Alice’s/Allechante/NS Cafe location. Sip your latte at the counter or enjoy lunch with friends at one of the small tables - inside or out!
The still-evolving family-friendly menu includes freshly made sandwiches, soups, salads, smoothies, desserts, and milkshakes! They also plan to have a selection of prepared foods, including dinner-to-go. They are focusing on locally sourced ingredients as much as possible - cheeses and meats as well as baked goods.
And they are open great hours: Monday - Friday 6:30 am - 5:00 pm and Saturday 10:30 am - 8:00 pm. Please join us in giving them a hearty welcome! ~ Liza
The Book Jam blog features a wide variety of books -- some new, some classic, always timely.
This week's post focusses on Smokin' Mysteries for Hot Summer Days. The bugs, the heat and humidity, and even the news, all call for mysteries where the problem at hand is successfully solved, leaving the reader with hopes for the next story of that detective’s travails.
A perfect fit!
