northfield, minnesota

home of carelton college, st. olaf college
and malt-o-meal! woody, a friend of my husband's,
used to say that he loved the days that they made chocolate!!

in that g was not interested in applying to either
college, nicki and i went straight into town
to wander around this quaint little river town.
"digs" is one of my favorite stops.
they have the most unique collection of cards,
paper, candles, doo~dads and now have crazy
fabrics on the lower level! i'm a paper nut
so i always stop in there to see what's new!!











hey, jen! i shot nicki "swishing through the leaves"!!!
can't you just hear the leaves??? :)



we popped into the town bakery to grab a goodie and
i got reprimanded for taking pictures...in a BAKERY?
are you kidding me?
well, what could i do but stop shooting. it smelled
just like the excelsior bakery from when i was a child.
many great memories for me from the smell of a real
bakery....sorry to have caused any undo stress!



then just simple darting in and out of the shops
on the main street (mostly to get warm! it was cold!)



before we headed back to digs so nicki could pick up
some fabric, we went around the corner to "basil's"...
for some of the greatest pizza!

i'm off to a pre-op appointment this morning.
nothing serious but i must get going!
thanks for checking in today!
stay warm!
