ADVENTURE

AWAITS! "Let's have a date night out," my girlfriend said to me a few weeks back. Usually, I am always on board. I love my girlfriend very much and I love food very much. Date nights usually combine the two, but in this instant I was perplexed. My girlfriend and I have not gone out for a date night since at least February of last year. The pandemic forced us to take the safe route and avoid going to restaurants. Over the past year, our date nights have been eating delivered food on the couch. There is not a lot of pizazz to that, right? But now, some 14 or 15 months after our last true "date night", we finally feel comfortable going back to restaurants in town. This scenario also allowed me to realize how drastic the pandemic shift was. Luckily, we are experiencing another movement in society. People are being vaccinated, they are returning to work, they are returning to local business and they are beginning to vacation once again. Due to the pandemic, the summer of 2020 was a tough one for the eager FargoMoorhead-based traveler. One has to assume that citizens across the United States are eager to get outside and visit places and communities that are different from their own. That has to put a smile on your face, no matter who you are. Getting away is important and it is necessary. Not only does it allow you to

learn about the greater world around you, but travel breeds wellness, both physically and mentally. We are getting back to a point where we can get away again. Unlike a year ago, we can drop everything on a Friday and make the weekend special in a different location. That should be encouraged as more Americans become vaccinated and more places begin to welcome travelers again. When you think of the word "scenic", the Midwest might not be the first thing that jumps into your mind. However, we are so privileged to be living in the area that we are. Not only are we surrounded by beauty in our own backyards, but there are even more scenic views within driving distance. Discover something new this summer and enjoy some of the amazing places featured in this issue.

to die, discover that I had not lived." As Thoreau would encourage, use this summer to suck out all the marrow of your life. Safe travels! A special thank you to the tourism departments that helped us create this issue. Without your assistance, this would not have been possible. Thank you from everyone here at Spotlight.

One of the most influential thinkers in my life has been Henry David Thoreau. I read Walden cover to cover in college and I have always been enamored with the transcendental thought process. The most notable quote from Thoreau in Walden is one I'd like to leave you with here. It offers forth a perspective worth entertaining as you plan your outdoor adventures. "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came 9

Emily Brooks OF TAEA MADE MEET LOCAL ARTIST EMILY BROOKS AND LEARN HOW HER BUSINESS, TAEA MADE, IS POPPING UP ALL OVER FARGO-MOORHEAD. Photos by Elska Photography 44 | MAY 2021 | FARGOMONTHLY.COM

THE QUALITY OF ART THAT WE HAVE IN THE F-M AREA IS AT THE HIGH LEVEL OF WHAT I’VE HAD THE CHANCE TO SEE GLOBALLY. WE’RE SO BLESSED WITH SUCH THRIVING LOCAL TALENT THAT EXPRESSES OUR UNIQUE LIFESTYLE. LOCAL ART IS VITAL TO THE F-M COMMUNITY BECAUSE IT IS THE PULSE OF OUR COMMUNITY." - Emily Brooks

What intrigues you about art? And what motivated you to pursue that avenue as a career choice? I’ve always been drawn to art from a very young age. My parents really supported and encouraged my creativity. I was very fortunate to grow up in Fargo with many resources for arts education over the years. When I had children of my own, I wanted a career that would work into my family’s lifestyle. When I couldn’t find the perfect fit, I decided to create a business of my own. I’m a really creative person who enjoys art, sewing, embroidery and writing. Taea Made has been the business I dreamed of since 2012.

Talk about the inception of Taea Made and what you strive to accomplish under that brand. Since the beginning of Taea Made, I’ve strived to make the kind of products that I would want for myself. Most of the projects I work on are custom orders. It’s such a treat for me to help my customer’s ideas come to life. I love the challenge of creating something new, and want my customers to be thrilled with the items they purchase from me.

Where did the name for "Taea Made" come from? Emily Brooks of Taea Made

This is the most frequently asked question I get about my business. Many people who are new to my work think that my name is Taea. When I was brainstorming names for my business, I wanted something meaningful. I wrote down a list of words that had significance to my husband and me. After playing around with different word combinations, Taea Made was our favorite!

Brooks was tasked with creating unique pillow art for use inside the new Jasper Hotel inside Block Nine.

Why is local art so vital to the FargoMoorhead community? Travel is a huge passion for my family and me. We’ve had the opportunity to visit destinations around the world, and the art in a community truly expresses the heartbeat of the residents. We see it when we attend orchestra performances, view urban art throughout a city, and in museums showcasing local talent. The quality of art that we have in the F-M area is at the high level of what I’ve had the chance to see globally. We’re so blessed with such thriving local talent that expresses our unique lifestyle. Local art is vital to the F-M community because it is the pulse of our community.

You are currently creating murals for Reese & Riley's. How were you able to land that projects and what went into that process? Throughout my years in business, I have mostly depended on word of mouth for advertising. I’m so grateful to my customers for not only choosing me to work on their projects, but sharing my contact information with others

for future projects. My work with Reese & Riley’s Olive Oil & Bistro Bar came through a referral from a friend and customer of mine. Laurel Mahan with RE/MAX is the owner’s realtor, and recommended me to the owner.

You also won a competition to have your angel wings drawn onto the Silver Linings Creamery building. How special was it to receive that honor? My family has loved visiting Silver Lining when we’re downtown to enjoy some of their delicious house-made ice cream. I had been selling masks at Silver Lining to help combat the pandemic, and found out that they were running a coloring contest for new angel wings on the outside of their building. I was over the moon to find out that my submission had been selected! It’s such a unique opportunity to interact with the community through my art.

Brooks with her family and her handdrawn angel wings featured on the side of Silver Linings Creamery.

The new Jasper Hotel is a key part of the massive new Block Nine project. You were able to get your art into the Jasper Hotel. Can you describe that project and talk about how big it is for you as an artist? I was thrilled to be asked to work on custom throw pillows for the rooms in the new Jasper Hotel through a referral from Unglued Market! I really appreciate how Jasper Hotel is incorporating the work of local artisans into their décor. I created three different sample prototypes with a modern Nordic theme for the group to choose from for the project. It was exciting when they selected my favorite out of the three! Each front panel of the pillows took over three hours to stitch out on my embroidery machine. They feature a natural canvas front adorned with navy thread. A chenille fabric backing in navy finishes each piece and matches

the rooms’ headboards. The zippers are adorned with wood hangtags featuring my logo done to match the wood trim in the rooms. In addition to the honor of helping differentiate Jasper Hotel, this project is an amazing way to create brand awareness as an artist. When customers stay at Jasper Hotel, my work will be seen by people from outside our area giving me much more exposure.

What are some of the biggest challenges to being an artist that readers may not understand? Some of the biggest challenges of being an artist is that a lot of my work goes into the managing of my business. Along with producing my pieces, I’m managing my accounting, taking care of all of my paperwork, creating invoices, marketing, communicating with customers

Brooks was commissioned to do these murals at Reese & Riley's. The bike pictured with Brooks will be the centerpiece of the mural.

and managing my social media accounts. There’s so much behind the scenes work that goes into managing a business. I’m fortunate that my parents owned a business, so I understood what goes into running a successful operation. They have also been an amazing resource for my questions since the very beginning.

On the flipside, what are some of the biggest rewards to being an artist that readers may not understand? The rewards of being an artist bring so much joy into my life! When I’m able to create a piece of work that truly expresses what my client was hoping for, my heart just soars. I feel that my artistic talents are my gifting in life, and I get so much satisfaction when others enjoy my work.

How can the Fargo-Moorhead community continue to support you and your art? The community can support me by following along on my social media, sharing my current projects, and encourage community leaders to choose local art. I love working directly with my customers, so get in touch if you have a project in mind. I’d love for you to support the businesses that have chosen to select a local artist for their projects as well!

HEALTH & WELLNESS SPOTLIGHT

is the best blend of trail mix? How can it be acquired? Here are some things to keep in mind when looking for that elusive batch. Whether you are creating your own or buying from the store, have your eyes peeled for these qualities.

Packing A Portable Punch

Due diligence is key to finding the perfect trail mix for your next adventure.

I have spent years of my life pondering the perfect blend of trail mix. On occasion, you may get a batch that is too sweet. In turn, the next batch may not be sweet enough. Finding the right balance on this classic snack will keep trail mix experts puzzled for millennia to come. Given that this is our summer getaways issue, we want to keep the outdoor theme alive here. As long as people have ventured into the great outdoors, there has been some variation of trail mix along with them. Its simplicity, portability and nutritional value provide the perfect snack for those on the go. Climbing a mountain? Reach into your bag for a handful of trail mix. Canoeing down a river? Trail mix provides the burst of energy needed to keep the canoe on course. It's really an all-encompassing snack and it goes beyond simply "on-thego" snacking. Trail mix is a rather practical snack to have in everyday life, too. But yet, the question alludes us: what

BY Nolan P. Schmidt 50 | MAY 2021 | FARGOMONTHLY.COM

Qualities Of A Good Trail Mix Portability - Especially if you're

on the go frequently during vacation, portability is key. Most brands of trail mix are already individually packaged for easy usage. If you are creating your own in bulk, make sure to have ziplock baggies handy!

Nutritious - A trail mix should

never be unhealthy. The nuts provide needed fats which translate to energy throughout the day. Depending on the ingredients used (and fitness goals), you can tailor your trail mix to your own macronutrient needs.

Delicious - It's a fallacy to think

that foods cannot be tasty and good for you. Trail mix is a prime example. In most cases, chocolate adds a sweet twist to a nutty trail mix.

What You Need To Create Your Own Trail Mix Let me be clear, there is nothing wrong with purchasing a brand-name trail mix. Oftentimes, it can be equally delicious, nutritious and portable as whatever you create at home. Some store mixes are already parceled into individuals portions too, which is great if you track your eating. However, if you plan to make your own trail mix in bulk for a big trip, be sure to include these essentials.

Nuts - This is the basis for any really good trail mix. With peanuts as the primary catalyst, other notable nuts to consider for your mix are cashews, almonds and walnuts. Pistachios, pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds

can also provide a nice, flavorful boost to a nut mixture.

Dried Fruits - Store-

bought trail mixes will almost exclusively use raisins in their trail mix. While there is nothing wrong with that, raisins can tend to get a little sugary at times. Why not try something different like mango, cranberry, apricot or cherry? I can speak from experience that cherry is a divine flavor in trail mixes (especially with dark chocolate).

Sweet/Savory Twist

- Chocolate (usually M&M's) is the twist. I would suggest using semi-sweet chocolate chips or even dark chocolate of some kind. I am a peanut butter freak, so peanut butter chips can also be used. On the opposite end, using a simple seasoning salt or other flavoring agents can create a nice savory mix. The key here is to not get too heavy-handed with these "twists".

Wants More Carbs? -

As mentioned above, you can create trail mixes based on your diet and macro goals. If you are looking for more carbohydrates, try adding pretzels (usually the sticks or a smaller pretzel) or Goldfish crackers.

Want More Protein?

- Honey-baked crunchy chickpeas can add in a dash of protein if needed. If you want a higher-protein blend, use almonds as a primary nut or consider adding some jerky. Be sure to be cautious as jerky can raise the sodium level exponentially.

What You Don't Need To Create Your Own Trail Mix Whether buying trail mix at the store or creating your own, be

diligent in choosing ingredients that are both nutritious and delicious. Here are some things to look out for.

Added Sugars - Your

sweet twist will likely contribute most of the sugars to your trail mix. When selecting that twist, be aware of the added sugars. For example, if you plan to use M&M's, take note of the amount of added sugar (17 grams) compared to semi-sweet chocolate chips (8 grams). Also, be sure to check your dried fruit of choice as those can be sneaky sources of added sugar as well.

'Too' Much Fat - Like

peanut butter, trail mix is always best in moderation. From my perspective, I would not take in more than one (1.8-2oz) serving of a homemade trail mix in a day. The fat content alone could potentially throw off your macronutrient levels if consumed in excess. Now, that does not make trail mix a bad snack, but be sure to track the amount that you are eating. That is part of the reason why individually parceling the mix is a good route to take.

High Sodium Levels -

Like added sugars, sodium levels can become extremely high in trail mixes if not monitored properly. Be sure to try and purchase the unsalted version of your chosen nuts. For example, a serving of unsalted almonds has zero milligrams of sodium in it. Salted almonds can add anywhere between 90 to 120 milligrams of sodium to those almonds. Sodium content is a variable that can increase in a hurry, so be very vigilant in tracking it. Disclaimer: Trail mix is a fun snack, so have fun creating your own. This is simply a guiding tool to create a simple mix, but get creative with your own blend!

Living Leadership

CELEBRATING THE VIBRANT TRICOLLEGE SYSTEM BY PROFILING CONCORDIA'S STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION. Buenos Dias! The FM area is known for its vibrant Tri-College and 50,000+ students whose presence shapes the culture of the valley. I took the time to speak to the newly elected Student Government Association (SGA) of Concordia, President Amina Fatkhulloeva and Vice President Eunice Kayitare Gikundiro. Lady Amina ('22) is an international student from Tajikistan. In 2016, she received one of the most competitive scholarships in the world that enabled her to study in Norway in one of the 18 United World Colleges (UWC). UWC exposed her to the world! She connected and built relationships with peers from more than 100 nations. Most importantly, she learned the value of the diversity of backgrounds, perspectives and experiences.

Lady Eunice ('22) is an international student from Huye, Rwanda. She majors in Neuroscience and minors in International Affairs. Concordia captured her interest as she graduated her International Baccalaureate at the United World College Maastricht, Netherlands. The ability to pursue a neuroscience degree in a Christian-affiliated school drew her even more to considering the immersion to a Midwestern society. Her passions for dance, music and volunteering has brought her even closer to the FM area community, where she performed Afro-contemporary dances at TEDx Fargo and 1 Million Cups and volunteered during the summer at Faith for Hope and the Red River Market. The FM area is fortunate to have such worldly students temporarily make here their home away from home.

She is double majoring in Accounting and Finance and minoring in French Language. Amina is volunteering for the IRS VITA program, where she is filing tax returns for members of our community.

If you see them in the community make sure to ask them what they love about Fargo!

One of the things she is really proud of is winning the Projects for Peace Grant from the Davis Foundation, to realize one of her biggest dreams, that will change the life of 600 people. She is working on a project that aims at bringing irrigation water to a village in Tajikistan.

Skol!

Where do you call home? Eunice: I find my roots, culture and overall identity from Rwanda but really consider myself as a global citizen. I think my experiences living and studying abroad while rarely being at my literal home, have largely influenced what I consider as home. Amina: I am from mountainous Tajikistan and I consider Dushanbe city my dominant home. Yet, I love a nomadic life and living in different places brings me happiness. So, I call home the place where my heart sings and where I grow a sense of belonging in the community. What are your objectives as Student Government Association (SGA) leaders for the FM area? As SGA leaders, we aim to build a stronger and supportive community. One of the reasons we ran for the position is because I saw a need for change in our school, especially in making the student body more informed about diversity, equity and inclusion. Due to the pandemic, we have missed so many opportunities to connect with our community. We are hoping by the end of this year we can return closer to normal and have more socio-cultural events, volunteering opportunities and networking that help us to build bridges between new and existing members of our community. Why should the FM community care more about the Tri-College students? The Tri-College is very important in different ways especially in promoting academic progress, diversity in extracurricular activities in an enriched environment, building connections and many more. This not only an individual

profit for students but also for the FM community. It implies that we are having well-informed, educated people in this community who are ready to bring a diverse knowledge of how to influence different affairs.

Amina: I am not certain where life will take me, but I am planning to work for development programs around the world. I want to make an impact and invest my time in creating sustainable communities in rural places around the world.

How could the FM area engage professionally and socially more with Tri-college students?

What is your vision 2030? Where will you be and why?

College mostly teaches us theoretical ways of how to think, but hands-on experience is a better teacher, in the long run, to put into practice what you have been learning. In that respect, the FM area can be better engaged by providing spaces, and interning opportunities in various disciplines, that would better prepare us for our future professions.

Eunice: I hope to have had my Ph.D. in Neuroscience and working in some neuroscience-related research center, have a family and be financially stable. I also believe these are very much influenced by the community I grew up in, where this is the “natural flow of life."

On the other hand, speaking from the perspective of international students I would also hope that many more companies would be more open to having internships in our favor. What are misconceptions of college students by the Fargo-Moorhead community?

Amina: I envision myself working for a development program as a project manager. I want to see the outcomes of the projects I have completed and how they have helped to restore vulnerable communities and improve their standards of living. Hopefully, have a family and live a healthy life in a peaceful, humane, sustainable world.

The possible misconceptions could possibly be that college students do not have life experience in careers and may not have what it takes yet to excel in certain domains. This is wrong on many levels, because it does not consider the fact that we get a lot of help from our mentors, professors and internships. Do you plan to stay in the FM area after graduating? What are the criteria for you to pick a city to live in after college? Eunice: I personally am not very sure yet but most likely not. I am planning on going to graduate school for Neuroscience, and most of my school choices are not in the area. 53

MEET THE

Kasta W

e can’t wait to introduce you to kasta here in Fargo-Moorhead! We’ve loved their clean, minimalist beautiful jewelry and the creative duo behind it - Kelly & Jessie.

Tell us a bit about yourself: Kelly: I was born and raised in Minnesota but now live across the river in Fargo with my husband, two young daughters and our ragdoll named Princess Fluffy Marshmallow. I have worked in the senior care field for over 15 years in senior housing, hospice and homecare all while making and selling my artistic creations online, in coffee shops and boutiques. I love color and how it shifts a moment or a mood. Visitors to my home are welcomed by a bright yellow door and lots of bold tones. I joke that artwork is my therapy. My friends and family will tell you that I'm most happy when I'm creating something, and my hands are full of paint. People have always asked me how I got to be so creative, and I like to tell them that I ate glue as a kid. Jessie: I live in Moorhead, Minn., with my husband, our high school-aged son and a variety of pets. We also have a daughter in college. I work full-time running the histology lab for NDSU’s Veterinary Diagnostic Lab. I am passionate about home design, DIY everything, woodworking, blogging, painting and refinishing, home remodeling and basically anything that involves building and creativity.

By Ashley Morken, Unglued

54 | MAY 2021 | FARGOMONTHLY.COM

Over the last 10 years my wood and furniture designs through my business,

de-uglied designs, have been featured in local boutiques and publications and even won the 2015 General Finishes national design contest in the category of Best Staging. For me, having a creative outlet is about as important as air and food, and I tend to tackle my endeavors with an obsessive degree of gusto, some might use the word “obsession”. Describe what you create under kasta? We create modern, minimalist handmade concrete jewelry that blurs the lines of architecture and fashion. Each creation is surprisingly lightweight, weighing only a fraction of an ounce and is completely unique from one piece to the next. At kasta, we celebrate the beauty in our individuality, and that’s what makes concrete such a remarkable medium to work with. Tell us where your name came from? The word “kasta” is old Norse meaning “to throw in” or “cast”. That’s what we do – we create molds, take raw concrete and then cast it into a shape. We take that shape and turn it into something beautiful. Because we like to do things a little offcenter at kasta, we use a lowercase “k” in our business name to keep people on their toes, and if you look closely, you’ll see “JK” in our logo as well.

Your personal favorite piece you've created? Kelly: My favorite piece is the first pair of earrings I ever created. I still wear them all of the time; I’m wearing them today. They’re circular drop earrings with no added color. Just plain concrete that shows unique texture and tiny imperfections that look beautifully unique – like a wearable work of art. Jessie: That’s a hard one! The color-blocked concrete jewelry is fun and playful, and the raw concrete and metallic gilded jewelry are modern and chic. If I had to pick one to represent our brand, I suppose I would pick the mica pendant necklaces, they are unique and classic. But you’ll see me most in our earrings, I love them all! What is your favorite thing about having your own business? Being creative breathes life into both of us. Working with a best friend on a medium that we love is one of the better decisions we’ve made in a long time. What is the most challenging thing? Kelly: Trying not to let outside voices impact our vision. As creative perfectionists, we have so many ideas. It’s hard to hold back, pace ourselves and focus on one thing at a time.

Jessie: Being seen! What people don’t realize when you own a small online business is that you’re not just creating a product, you are a website designer, photographer, purchaser, accountant, delivery service and marketer. We are constantly striving to get better in these areas, especially marketing.

and remodeler, writer, blogger, and now jewelry designer, maker, and co-owner of a small business. While I think it’s admirable to model hard work and drive for your children, I think I’d tell myself to chill out and enjoy my family and maybe pick a lane.

What are you looking forward to with your business in 2021?

We’re active on social media and plan to participate in a handful of pop-up shops and events each year. We also are very pleased to sell our products at Unglued in Downtown Fargo.

Introducing more people to kasta and bringing other elements to our designs such as wood, metals, aggregates and new colors. We’ve only scratched the surface. What is a word that best describes you? Kelly: Colorful Jessie: Industrious What advice would you have given yourself 10 years ago? Kelly: You don’t have to pick just one thing. You can dabble in hobbies and different ventures all of your life. Don’t be afraid to try new things to see what sticks. Embrace your “weird”. Have fun and never grow up.

Where can people find your work?

How can our community support you – especially in this pandemic time? Give any company that you follow on social media some love by engaging with them and their posts. This is huge for small businesses. Any time we make a sale an actual person at kasta does a happy dance.

Jessie: In the last 10 years, along with a fulltime career, some of my creative endeavors include entrepreneur, furniture restorer and painter, woodworker, interior designer 55
