A Feast of Awesomeness for the Eyes

Seriously, can we all just take a moment to admire the gorgeousness happening up there?

I'll wait...

...

... Alright, so now we must discuss, and the discussion must start with that amazing charcuterie photo courtesy of our newest member, Northern Ohio Provisions, purveyors of Boar's Head deli deliciousness.

Like many Copleyites, my first taste of Boar's Head products came from Shisler's, and that taste totally raised the bar of my meat and cheese expectations. And I trained my family's taste buds well, so it wasn't long before we were coordinating Shisler's runs for lunch meats.

We were all sad to see Shisler's go, of course, but thank goodness we now have Beau's Market & Deli to provide us with Boar's Head as provided by Northern Ohio Provisions!

And right next to Beau's..? Cardinal Cakes and Coffee, makers of those adorable little 4” mini cakes pictured under the charcuterie. Cardinal recently added them to their case of temptations and I couldn't help but make sure you all saw them because they are just lovely little works of artistic sweetness.

Speaking of artisticness... those other two photos are the work of Lisa Naymik of Moonshine Arts, our anniversary celebrator of the week!

Lisa's one of our Maker Members, those members of ours who make and do cool things out of their home or studio or what-have-you. The cool things Lisa makes are mixed media jewelry pieces out of papers she creates for her larger works.

Works like the piece she created for the Paul Janos Community Impact Award last year, the print of which is available in the Loop Store with a portion of the proceeds benefitting the Copley Outreach Center.

And, well, goodness... I don't know about you but this feast has totally made my eyes full.

I think they're ready for a nap.
