My favorite fair experience was a trip with me and the kids. Wife was home sick. It was a "Yes Day" and they still talk about it, 9 years later

They WHAT?? They *saw it happen*, and they did NOTHING?!?! "Worthless" is a compliment!!!

Also, @startribune.com ...what kind of uninquisitive baloney is this? "In a deviation from department policy"??? You mean "In a failure to do their most basic function." Do better...
In a deviation from department policy, Brooklyn Park police eaited more than an hour to enter the home of Melissa Hortman after watching Mark Hortman get shot in the doorway.

This fart monster and his brother checked out of the doggie spa this morning. I'll miss the snuggles and grunts, but not the slobber and aforementioned farts. #AdventuresInDogsitting
A smiling gray Pitty laying on a yellow couch partially covered by a black blanket. He is on his back with 3 of 4 paws reaching towards the ceiling and a blurry tail (because he is wagging it).

These beloved brothers are here for the week. They're old, but majestic. Goofy, but wise. 20/10 good boys. #AdventuresInDogsitting

Sourdough is so 2020. Sauerkraut is my jam this year. Here are my first 3 attempts at 3 weeks, 2 weeks, and 1 hour old.
Three jars of sauerkraut. The left is a flip-top jar, freshly made today, and electric green. The middle is a mason jar, with a funky yellowish brown tint, and un-opened for two weeks. The right is a mostly-empty mason jar of off-white kraut that is 3 weeks old.

#AdventuresInDogsitting brings us this old but energetic fella. He loves everyone and is so happy to be with you, especially if you've got a morsel of human food.

My family loves dogs. We are dog people. But a couple years back, we decided we aren't dog *owners*.

Instead, we scratch the itch by dogsitting for our friends. It's the best family decision we've made in forever!

Check out this weekend's majestic addition to the family!
