For 30 years, a venerable cavalcade of comedy’s biggest names have made their way to Boston for one night in the fall to celebrate Comics Come Home. In many ways, the show itself has taken on the feeling of a summer camp gathering, where comics who aren’t always on the same shows can take their foot off the gas for a night, and trade in the hustle and bustle of the industry for a simple night of laughs with their friends.

Meet Willow the sweet dog waiting for a new home

Willow, a 3-year-old female American Staffordshire terrier mix with a gentle nature and playful side, is available for adoption at the Taunton Animal Shelter. Willow is described as sweet, calm and loving, according to a community announcement. She enjoys spending quiet time relaxing but also has a silly side and likes to play. She also enjoys walks and could be a good companion for neighborhood strolls and other outdoor activities. Willow appears to like meeting people and may be suited to a home with older children, according to the announcement. It is not yet known how Willow would do with cats or other dogs. People who already have a dog can arrange a meet-and-greet with Willow. Willow also enjoys playing in the shelter's play yard. A fenced yard at her future home would be a plus, according to the announcement.

The Cannoli Battle of Boston

The North End of Boston is famous for its cannoli, but which one has the BEST (according to me)?\. There’s an ongoing debate among Boston locals and tourists alike: who has the best cannoli in Boston? Mike’s Pastry? Modern Pastry? Bova’s Bakery? As a native of the greater Boston area, I’ve been to all three bakeries too many times to count! As a kid, I never really thought to compare all three bakeries in respect to one popular dessert—the cannoli. Today, I’ll break down each bakery’s cannolis based on creativity of flavors, presentation and, of course, taste.
