Saturday.4.23.16 ~ breakfast, (nap), dinner, dessert : wonderful friendships
- Breakfast at Ze's Diner in Woodbury with friends : GREAT friends, mediocre breakfast
- Dinner at D-Spot for a friend's birthday : GREAT friends; excellent wings. We recommend D-Spot in Oakdale. Check out their crazy menu.
Tips for the D-Spot:
- review the menu before arrival, maybe even write down your order
- have one person in line to order and then send someone in your group to grab a table, it's always busy, totally worth it
- order many kinds of wings to try and then share
- Dessert & Live Music ~ Cafe Latte in St. Paul
- Yummy desserts - we recommend the Dark Chocolate Tres Leches, Dark Chocolate Buttercream or Turtle Cake with a cup of coffee
- Really great live music! Right now on Saturday nights is this cat name Reynaldo Moreno - check him out here
- Mr. Moreno plays from 7pm-10pm
- We go to Cafe Latte most Saturday nights: cake + coffee + St. Paul + live music = the good life in our city
Sunday.4.24.16 ~ church, (nap - yes, again, don't judge), The Orpheum
- Church at theAlley Church - current series is called Unmasked.
- the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis
- I went to the Bethel Worship concert and it was held at the beautiful Orpheum Theatre
- the show was great, really beautiful time of worship
- the venue is one of my favorites in the Twin Cities, every seat has a good view of the stage
