BRIEFS January 27, 2005 Menemsha Deli reopens Tuesday The ride to find hearty sandwiches, snacks and hot coffee just got a little shorter for folks living or working up-Island. Karen’s Menemsha Deli in Menemsha reopens Tuesday, Feb. 1. Owner Karen Cimeno says her goal is to stay open year-round once again. A coupon for 10 percent off appears on page 5 in today’s issue of The Times. For more information on hours and daily menu items, call 508-645-9902 Mainland meal delivery available on-Island Fresch & Holsum’s, an all-natural prepared meals market based in Mashpee and Hyannis, is offering free next day delivery of all the company’s natural entrees, side dishes, appetizers and desserts to any Island home or office through March 31. A company flyer, which only refers to Cape Cod delivery service, is inserted in this week’s issue of The Times. Polly Papsadore, co-owner of Fresch & Holsum, said the flyer was printed before she learned that the Island was within the delivery contract negotiated with Federal Express. Ms. Papsadore said she thinks the service will be most appreciated by senior residents who may have difficulty getting around during the winter months. According to a press release, Fresch & Holsum’s offers over 50 all-natural menu items every day, including appetizers, entrees, side dishes, desserts and kids’ meals. No artificial sweeteners, colors, flavors, hydrogenated oils, or synthetic preservatives are used in its meals, which are prepared by hand, then vacuum sealed and quick frozen to naturally preserve premium taste and texture. Its meals can be warmed in the microwave or conventional oven in minutes. The business began after Ms. Papsadore, a busy mother and professional with very limited cooking skills and no free time, hired Cindy Parker, a personal chef, to prepare meals in advance for her family. The convenience of having a dozen prepared meals in the freezer gave the women an idea for a business and the rest, as they say, is history. For more information, call 888-9SUPPER (888-978-7737) or visit www.888-9supper.com.

According to a press release, total 2004 fundraising efforts produced over $1.1 million.
