The shop is so much more than a place that serves coffee. It has cold and grilled sandwiches, wraps, weight-watcher friendly meals, a children’s menu and amazing desserts. A month ago, I ordered takeout from them and when I arrived at my destination was surprised my meal not only had a loaded and great-tasting sandwich but also fresh fruit and a wedge of Gouda. Yes,…

May 30, 2012 • Julie Saffrin • Leave a Comment

Since we bought our cabin on Dead Lake six years ago, one of my favorite stops when friends and family come to visit is Bev’s Book Nook. Beverly states on her Facebook page that her shop is “a unique little bookstore located in the heart of lakes country in Minnesota. We stopped there over the Memorial Day weekend and my son Sam picked up a Fitzgerald, two Steinbecks and a “newer” novel. Opened in 1988 as a bookstore that carries gently used book, classics, rare books, new books and everything in between including puzzles and cards, this gem (conveniently located…

March 23, 2012 • Julie Saffrin • 3 Comments

Spring has come early to Minnesota this year. This week’s temperatures reached 80 degrees for the First. Time. Ever.

We already have a good start on our tans and D, the sunshine vitamin, is well on its way to replenishing our souls. Plants I overwintered are now on my deck. My cleaned windows squeak with joy. And my porch ― always a sign that spring has…
