The Saint Paul Winter Carnival may have begun as a little "f" you to an East Coast writer who wondered what we could do with ourselves all winter long. (Short answer: lots of things — check the birth rate in September.) However, the festival has... More »
Cold beer outdoors on a cold winter's day? Is the Beer Dabbler crazy? "Different, true. Risky, true. But very Minnesotan," states organizer Matt Kenevan. "The natives love beer and winter. And if they don't love winter, but are here anyway? Then... More »

That's right, even in deepest winter, intrepid area growers are out here from 9:00 to noon on Saturdays selling their wares, which in the frozen months are mostly meats, cheeses, and eggs, with some honey and baked goods, a few indoor-grown vegetables like tomatoes, and some homemade products such as soap. We hate factory farms as much as the... More »

Summit Avenue crawls with walkers and their strollers, joggers and their dogs, and runners and their headphones, but the quintessential summer-in-St. Paul Friday afternoon necessitates a stop at the farmers' market at St. Luke's Catholic Church, open from 1:15 to 5:00 p.m. It is more manageable than its weekend-morning counterpart in...
