The Duluth Urban Acres Coalition is studying how Duluthians access food and interact with the local food system. We’ve developed a brief survey that helps us get a sense of how people get food, what barriers (if any) they face when it comes to getting enough healthy food, and how they participate in the local food system. We’d love your input, so please go to the following link and tell us what you think!
Fat Tuesday is coming … and yesterday, at Mt. Royal, I found my annual fave, Mountain Dew Throwback.
So, where have you seen the made-with-sugar, not-corn-syrup delight called “Mountain Dew Throwback?” And what other sugar-soda delights are available in Duluth? Last year, I discovered the Mexican Coke at Cub via this thread. I’m open to other, maybe even local? sodas.
And: last year, I discovered that not all Super Ones are the same. The Paczki delights vary from location to location. Last year, the Lakeside Super One was awesomest — best in taste and appearance. But where will I find them this year?

After reading the Iditarod racer profiles today and watching four-time champion Lance Mackey moved to tears about a dog who once saved his life, I asked a friend if any cat ever saved anyone?
Credit was given for ridding mice and disease, lowering blood pressure, etc. Then she told me an odd family history story.
My talented friend, Gail Blum, makes beach stone necklaces and now has a website where you can get one, too. Free domestic shipping!
While I was really rooting for the “Paste Headline Here” whoopsie by the DNT, I think the Transistor gets the gold cup for its summary of today’s Polar Plunge.
I’ve seen President’s Day, Presidents’ Day, and Presidents Day. (watch the ads on TV or in print) Which is it? I’m with the plural possessive, since we celebrate Lincoln and Washington specifically. Or do we celebrate all presidents? Then it should be like Veterans Day. Chime in.
Black and white female Springer Spaniel lost yesterday in Canal Park. Contact 715-798-2478 if you have any info on the whereabouts. There is no collar on the dog. A reward is being offered. Thanks!
Three questions about banner photos:
1) This may have been covered before, but do those come up randomly or in some sequence?
2) How can there be no comments on any of the banners on the Flickr site? It’s odd to me that photographers haven’t typed in more info on what’s going on in the picture.
3) Why is the little girl in the cat make-up so sad?
