Watcho the Camacho
Growing up in central Illinois, I have been to Chicago many times. In fact, a couple years ago I traveled to Chicago for work every week for a year. I flew in, took the train to the Sears Tower, stayed at a hotel a couple blocks away, occasionally took a cab to one of the [...]

Although the weather had turned a little chilly last Saturday, we kept our plans and headed to Hastings, MN to the Alexis Bailly Vineyard. We were there for their Fall Open House in celebration of their fall harvest of their Nouveau Foch wine. We arrived mid-afternoon and were surprised to see rows and rows of [...]

Saturday afternoon was beautiful…a perfect day for a drive out west. I’m always up for taking a drive. When it’s Fall I can’t think of better thing to do on a crisp afternoon.
As we headed west, the Fall leaves became noticeably more vibrant than they were downtown. Golds, reds, and oranges stood out brilliantly against [...]

I know this is old hat to many of you, but I just wanted to share my excitement that Maxwell’s is back! It seems unbelieveable that just seven months ago, Maxwell’s was shut down due to a fire that started on the third floor in a storage area (as reported by Ed here), where there [...]

Have you ever asked your friends “if you were stranded on an island and could have only five foods, what would they be?” I asked this to friends a few times and I’ve thought about that question myself even more. I’m pretty set in a few of my food needs, but others may vary slightly [...]

Straight from our Minnesota State Fair binge, we went to our Cooking Club on Friday night. The menu was set by RJ and Katie - a good old fashioned seafood boil! The ingredients for the boil were crab legs, shrimp, andoullie sausage, carrots, onions, potatoes, and corn. The accompaniments to round out the menu were [...]

To kick off the long Labor Day weekend, Kyle and I headed to the Minnesota State Fair on Friday afternoon. We hadn’t been to a fair in years and here we were hitting our second state fair in a month. The grease, the sun, the beer…borderline body abuse.
Since there were only two of us at [...]

There is much to do around town when it’s summer in the Twin Cities and this is especially true in the Mill District. I’ve enjoyed road races, light shows, and outdoor concerts this summer, but the most enjoyable event for me is the farmers market.
The Mill City Farmers Market is held every Saturday through October [...]
