Some leftover photos from Minneapolis. On Friday night, Zoe, Brian and I went to Moto-I for ramen, then walked over to Las Delicias de Frida for paletas. I got talked into the Mangoada, and had to get a photo of it. I feel like my photographer (Brian) could have positioned it a little better. Ha. If you like chamoy, you'd like this. It was delicious.
After the first game on Saturday. Brian and I went to Kramarczuk's Sausage -- Brian's new favorite restaurant in Minneapolis.
We sampled the periogis and cabbage roll, then did a little shopping in their market. It was pretty fantastic.
Yes, lots of food photos. But I already posted about the soccer games. Cole had another team dinner, but this time, the rest of us were invited. We drove out to the party, stayed a bit, then dropped Zoe off at Cole's and Brian and I went out for dinner. I have a huge list of restaurants to try in Minneapolis, so decided to try Tullibe, which was recommended by the Elsmo's and close by our hotel. It was perfect. We started with a delicious cocktails, lox and beets and bitterballen. We also had brussels sprouts which were fantastic.
Brian had a view of the open fire behind me, so we had to try something cooked like that. The flat iron steak and roti were delicious.
The next day, we wandered around campus before The Auggies next soccer game. We haven't spent much time on campus, but stumbled upon the room that houses Cole's favorite class - Ceramics.
I love that he enjoys it so much. Someone was working in there when we walked in. We said our son loves that class, and she asked if it was Cole. I'm sure the spiritwear sweatshirts gave it away, but it was still pretty funny. His instructor came to cheer him on the first game. Then one of his other classmates was selling concessions at the second game and was on the field afterwards. Cute.
I took Monday am off from everything except picking up our dogs. I needed a morning at home, so no gym. But it was a gorgeous day. I was thinking about going on a run, but decided if I could do that, I'd rather take a dog out on a field trip. Bully was my buddy for the day.
He's 4 years old, stocky, strong and a total lover. He enjoyed looking for squirrels and sitting on my lap. He was a fun guy to hang out with. There are SO many dogs at the shelter right now. FIVE of my field trip dogs are currently waiting for homes. At least two that I know of have been adopted then returned within a matter of days. Honestly, I don't get it. It makes me so sad.
So many leaves. And so many more that need to fall yet. Ours are always some of the last to go.
