Thursday night at the Apache Mall in Rochester, Minnesota, was a fundraising carnival for Rochester's Spark Children's Museum...and the evening ended with Spark's  MANY pies to the face...faces? Faces. Hers and his.

At $20 bucks a pop, it certainly was worth every dripping, sticky, slippery, breath catching moment.

Breath Catching? Yep. You ever have a pie come your way? You don't have much time and you always remember, almost too late, to close your mouth.

Was It Just A Pie To The Face Night?

The evening was way more than just the pie-to-the-face-fest. I played a few games, too. Special thanks to Judy for the extra special duck-selection! And to the awesome woman who ALMOST helped me win the goldfish bowl toss (its easy to see I'm not a beer-poing player).

Isn't it cool when we know that something was made right here in our very own state? I instantly want to buy whatever that "Minnesota-made" item is because it is something we all can be proud of and support. Below are a few of those products that you could support right now.
