LAKEVILLE — The participants couldn’t remember precisely, but the consensus was the last Memorial Day weekend tag sale at Trinity Episcopal Church in Lakeville was about 10 years ago.

It rained off and on all day Saturday, May 24, so the sale, originally planned to be outside, was moved indoors.

Immediately upon entering, a shopper had the opportunity to pick up a copy of “The Lime Rock Cook Book of Trinity Church.”

This 1981 edition adds then-contemporary recipes to the editions of 1897 and 1951.

Entries include:

Mystery Pickle

Spinach Soup

Rabbit Fricassee

Ancestral Sauce for Plum Pudding

Opening on Sept. 26, Agatha Christie’s legendary whodunit “The Mousetrap” brings suspense and intrigue to the Sharon Playhouse stage, as the theater wraps up its 2025 Mainstage Season with a bold new take on the world’s longest-running play.

Running from Sept. 26 to Oct. 5, “The Mousetrap” marks another milestone for the award-winning regional theater, bringing together an ensemble of exceptional local talent under the direction of Broadway’s Hunter Foster, who also directed last season’s production of “Rock of Ages." With a career that spans stage and screen, Foster brings a fresh and suspense-filled staging to Christie’s classic.
