MANCHESTER, NH – Life is busy. We get that. And these days, with all the peer pressure to like, click and share, sometimes there are just too many online news stories on your radar to actually read.

That’s why we like to round-up the week’s most clickable stories for you into one handy post. Last week we reminded you that Chiggy’s Place is still the home of the 16-ounce coffee mug, that the city library’s bag’o’books sale is coming up (April 15), that the Elm Street Underground is sure to the next big thing (who wants to rent a basement?), and that the Elliot plays a pivotal role in triaging our state’s mental health crisis.

We also delivered the big news, that Trader Joe’s is coming to Bedford, and that Bunny’s Superette is expanding to the downtown, taking over the old CVS on Elm Street. Also on the good-news tally board: Manchester Rotary gave a financial boost to Manchester School of Technology’s robotics team, Brookside Congregational Church welcomed a new pastor, and a CASA NH volunteer’s story helps to underscore the important role of those who donate their time and hearts to children in need.
