Hopefully everyone had a nice long weekend. And the weather treated you well, as it did me. I spent my Saturday in St. Paul touring the many countries of the world at the Festival of Nations. I remember coming to this in junior high with my Spanish class and used to love it. My mom confirmed that when I told her I was going this weekend. Anywho, countries have booths setup throughout the Rivercentre for tasting their delicacies and also buying their merchandise.
Our food list (split with my fiancee):
- Polish Kielbasa
- Finnish Strawberry Shortcake
- Italian Pizza
- French Ham and Spinach Baguette
- French Eclair
- Danish Lefse
- Mexican Steak Tacos
- Mexican Fresh Mango with Chile powder (HOOOOOTTTT! Yikes.)
MMM. All were delicious.
We also toured the merchandise booths, which reminded me of the World Bazaar at the MN State Fair. In fact, I finally snagged one of those hand carved wooden croaking frogs, for a mere $5! I am already driving people crazy with the thing.
Buy one of these guys on Amazon.com.
Time with family, yahtzee, and dinner with my hunnie sums up the rest of the weekend. Welcome back to reality folks. Friday... come early.
