F3: To Your Health

This Fresh Forkin’ Friday I am happy to announce that the fever has broken. Having a sick kid for a week has truly been unnerving. He’s been a pretty healthy little dude thus far, so this has really been his first bout of long term down-and-out-itis. All week, as I was trying to get food into…

Batter Up: New Eats at Target Field

It’s spring and if your fancy turns to thoughts of peanuts and cracker jack, you might be a baseball fan. In the car ride to the ballpark for our first game every year, the chatter turns from “Will Joe still have those sideburns?” to ” Do you think I should go nachos before hot dog? Or vice versa?” If that’s how you roll too, you…
