Reply to Cheap good sandwich in Boston/Cambridge/Somerville/East Arlington area? by waterdrinking

If you are willing to stretch your definition of a sandwich to a coxinha (a manioc ball stuffed with chicken and then deep fried), then Oliveira Deli and Market in Brighton off Oak Square has softball size ones for around $5. Get two of those and a cold can of Guaraná Antártida for about $12 total.

They also apparently do some good sandwiches, but I've never gotten anything except the coxinhas due to their deliciousness and being a bit set in my ways.

Reply to Area high schools with good theater performances for kids? by ribi305

So, I can't really speak to the schools, but if you don't mind the drive to Providence, the Providence Performing Arts Center has Broadway Tour seasons and the tickets are super reasonable (like a whole season for the cost of a single Boston show).

Frozen and How the Grinch stole Christmas are there next year and should be kid appropriate

Reply to Edible recommendations for first timer? by Flakybeef

-Recommendation number 1: Start small, like 2.5mg or even less. Then wait a couple of hours. The "standard serving" for most edibles in MA is 5mg. However, if you did not have a great time smoking, you probably don't really know how much to take.

Caveat- weed seltzers tend to have a faster impact

-Recommendation number 2: Consider if you are planning to have alcohol as well. The effects play off of each other differently in some people, so just because a certain amount of edible plays well with you without alcohol, does not mean it will play the same way with alcohol.

Recommendation number 3: I find that chocolates tend to be a good place to start as usually if you like the sound of a particular flavor of bar you will like that. Sometimes I've had gummies or lozenges that definitely did not taste like the listed flavor.
