things Citrus Crab Cakes
Mezzaluna As a meal or appetizer, Mezzaluna’s citrus crab cakes are amazing. Grilled corn, bacon, basil and smoked paprika aioli make these cakes melt in your mouth. Add in a side of their creamy polenta for extra carb-loading.
Favorite story
In Search of Wildness
July This is the story of Hawley, Minn., natives, Shane Ulven and Nate Haugen, as they trekked across the U.S. on a do-gooding mission to make a difference in people’s lives. I was intrigued by their fresh outlook on life and spent plenty of time following their travels via social media; each story bringing joy to another deserving person and making me cry more times than a Hallmark movie.
event highlight
Corks & Canvas
There is one event I had thought about and wanted to attend for the last three years, but it just never worked out. So as fate would have it, this year, that event landed smack dab on my birthday… Hello Corks & Canvas! I gathered some of my favorite people, enjoyed the local art and shopping, sampled wine, walked, talked and even got pooped on by a bird. Minus the bird droppings, it was a perfect summer night in Downtown Fargo.

1. Best New Restaurant Luna Fargo 2. What You Learned About Fargo This Year There are so many new and great restaurants in Fargo-Moorhead right now, that I do not have enough stretchy pants and kid-less date nights to even attempt making it to a fraction of them. 3. Wishful Thinking for 2016 I want to see more people head downtown and enjoy the shopping, galleries, nightlife and dining. Hopefully in 2016, we’ll see even more exciting historic preservations to downtown living and retail. 4. Fargo New Year's Resolution Get in shape. Then run the Fargo half marathon again...it's been a while.
