I recently discovered Tortilla Campesina and I can say they are the best tortillas I have had.

Freshly made on East Lake Street in #Minneapolis .

Continúo la costura de mi rakusu de acuerdo a la tradición de MZMC.

Una vez que los pedazos cuadrados (tan en japonés) y los pedazos rectangulares (cho) han sido cosidos en pares, hay que unir los pares con costuras verticales.

Me tomó varios intentos para poder lograr la alineación correcta antes de coser, pero el maestro de costura en el centro Zen revisó y confirmó que esta bien y puedo continuar.

El siguiente paso es crear el doblez y la segunda costura vertical, reportaré el avance.

Today at the SPCA I walked 3 dogs: Duchess, Brandy and Bobo. Sort of.

I've walked Bobo before with no problem, but today he started barking aggressively at the dogs in the kennels next door. He was in "drive" and when he saw my hand move above him he lunged as if to bite me. He's a big dog and strong. I decided that it would be a bad idea for me to walk him further. The choice was to go back to his kennel through a corridor with dogs barking on both sides, or out past a dog run with dogs barking there too. Both bad choices. I found a spot where he couldn't see any dogs, and distracted him with treats till the kennel manager came past. I asked him for help, and he put Bobo back in his kennel for me.

That felt bad. But if Bobo bit me, that would have severe consequences for him.

Instead, I walked Duchess, a bouncy big-eared sweetheart who enjoys catching treats out of the air, and little Brandy, who is being adopted soon. So that's good news.

The fundraiser near Alex Pretti’s memorial yesterday was a lot of fun. I’d say there were at least 2,000 people there for #DropkickMurphys.

The entire show is on YouTube. There’s a link at https://abolishice.live/. Also, please donate there if you can.

Now through April 5, you can build your own fort at the Children's Theatre in #Minneapolis—whether you're a kid or a solo grown-up. #MNastodon https://twincitiesgeek.com/2026/03/at-the-childrens-theatre-forts-sparks-joy-with-open-play-for-kids-and-adults/
At the Children’s Theatre, “Forts!” Sparks Joy with Open Play for Kids and Adults

When I talked to Julie Ritchey, creator of Forts!: Build Your Own Adventure, she was sure to make a point about how the true experience of this interactive installation at the Children’s Theatre doesn’t change with age. While Ritchey created it with young guests in mind, it is advertised as being for all ages, and if you’re willing to get invested, anyone can have fun there. Nights for 21-plus guests, like the one I attended (not pictured), allow the production to curate an experience for adults—which really just means allowing alcohol in the event space in a limited capacity. But the content of Forts! is the same: Guests gather in a small room, where they take off their shoes and make nametags. They can socialize, or color on provided squares of cardboard, using crayons or markers. Two hosts then come into the room, prompt the guests to gather around, and

ICE abducted "two Target team members who are both teenagers and US citizens—and Target stayed completely silent."

Target is "letting ICE regularly stage out of their parking lot."
