You are all invited to a 100 year anniversary party for Regina's Candies on Saturday October 3rd! We will have lots of games and activities for children, contests, samples and a sale! reginascandies.com/pages/100-ye...
Also, If you've ever dreamed up the best fudge recipe, here's your chance to have us make it and win 2 lbs of it! You may enter your idea online or at the gathering. reginascandies.com/pages/submit...
And finally, since you probably follow me for my skeets about 'really needing this rain' or my enthusiasm for public seating, I'm going to stop talking about Regina's and chocolate here. You are welcome to follow our new bluesky account if you'd like to get updates! reginascandies.bsky.social
What a Saturday in Seward! Twin Cities Maker has taken over a couple of blocks for a giant maker fest, Greenway Glow will have the greenway lit up all evening and night and the Bracket Park Rocket is going to be lit for takeoff! www.36thart.org/projects/lif...
In some personal news, my partner and I are the new owners of reginascandies.com, which is 100 years old this year! We feel so fortunate to learn the craft of small batch chocolate and confections from a family that has has done it their whole life, and aim to continue the tradition into the future
Any traffic nerds know if posts that are on Marshall Ave in St. Paul need to adhere to 'Crashworthiness'? The statute mentions the implementation date is for roads posted at >= 50 mph but I'm curious if there are any other city or state laws that may apply. www.dot.state.mn.us/stateaid/cra...
According to the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices: "Crashworthiness provisions in this Manual shall apply to all streets, highways, and site roadways open to public travel." so I think Marshall Ave would fit in that. ( edocs-public.dot.state.mn.us/edocs_public...)

I don't like to talk, but here's me talking about benches as political speech, as recorded by the inspiring local filmmaker Joe Miller. The website has lots of other amazing stories of folks helping each other out. www.storiesbyus.org/story/view/b...

I am increasingly impatient with the use of space in this city. Too many streets for cars and not people. Narrow sidewalks with no seating. Not a bathroom in sight. And then we wonder why commercial corridors sit quiet. Look what we do with a little breathing room! This should be every day.
Close the streets so kids can play in them. This is an official position.
@omarfatehmn.com and or @zaynabmmohamed.bsky.social, given that your districts border Hiawatha, I'd like to make sure you are aware of this and ask that we can find some kind of way for pedestrians to cross this highway.
