It's Too Cold in St. Paul It's cold today, too cold. Like it's 0 - a big fat ZERO - right now as I type this. It was -12°F when I woke up this morning. I know there's nothing I can do about the the cold - I live in the frozen tundra, the only thing to do is move and for the life of
I started writing this post 4 hours ago and then got an email from a client, and phone call from a client and then realized I hadn't created a newsletter for a client and remembered I had to schedule an appointment for my daughter and reschedule several other things that need to be changed due to a new appointment.... And now I have to pick
It's cold here. So cold! I don't mind the cold that much, I mean reasonable cold. This cold is epic. When I woke up this morning it was -27°F. Currently, it's -18°F and falling. I've experienced these kinds of temps before. I grew up in the 1970s when sub zero temps and record snow falls were pretty commonplace. This current Polar Vortex is breaking all
Last year Minnesota hosted the Super Bowl. Minnesota did not make it to the Super Bowl, which is no surprise. The Vikings did not make it this year either. That also is not a surprise. Odds are, your team did not make it to the Super Bowl, but you're probably still going to a Super Bowl party and you're going to need to bring something.
I'm giving away 4 pairs of tickets! You can enter to win a pair of tickets to the Minneapolis Home and Remodeling Show by leaving a comment below and guessing how many Almond Joys (leftover from Halloween) are in this wide mouth Mason jar. It's actually a Ball jar but no one knows them that way. The Minneapolis Home and Remodeling Show takes place February
Now that it's over, everyone can go home. Obviously, I have some thoughts on the Super Bowl and all the surrounding festivities and celebrations that took place in the Twin Cities metro area. Some Thoughts on the Super Bowl First and foremost, it was pretty awesome. The weather couldn't have been better. Sure, it was cold and it snowed a few inches, but that's what
So apparently Jimmy Fallon is inviting himself to dine with some Minnesotans while he's here for his live Tonight Show following the Super Bowl. He's not from here so he wouldn't know that we don't just invite ourselves over to someone's house for dinner. In fact, we have to be invited a minimum of three times before we can accept anything. However, this is a
Wondering where to eat in the Twin Cities while visiting for the Super Bowl? You're not alone. If you're here for the sport thing, there are a million sports bars in Minneapolis, St. Paul and the surrounding suburbs that make up the Twin Cities. Sports bars with walls of TVs to catch all the pre-game excitement of Super Bowl LII. However, there's more to dining
If you're wondering how to fit in when visiting the Twin Cities for the Super Bowl, I'll save you all kinds of time. You can't. Sure, you can dress warmly (though that is the first clue you aren't from here), and you can even adopt a quasi Fargo accent, you still won't fit in. Hell, I was born here and have lived here for most
Earlier I posted a recipe for Big Mac Hot Dish, but because I was concerned about my use of Tater Tots in the recipe I also a Big Mac Hot Dish with Noodles using elbow noodles instead of the tots. Initially I did not want to use noodles, it just seemed like a weird combination of flavors - pickles, cheese, tomatoes - to have with
