Gosh, I’m just bubblin’ with excitement about all the neat stuff happenin’ in Minot today! You know what really gets my juices flowin’? That Blue & White Grilled Cheese over at Prairie Sky Breads. It’s got all these fancy cheeses I can’t even pronounce, but boy oh boy, does it sound scrumptious! And they’ve got this salad with little seeds that look just like the ones in my special purpose!
But wait, there’s more! The Blue Rider’s hostin’ some kinda brain-teasin’ trivia night. Now, I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but I sure do love a good pop-tart while I’m scratchin’ my noggin. And get this – it’s National Creamsicle Day! I wonder if they’ll let me bring my own creamsicle to cool off while I’m sweatin’ over those tough questions. Golly, what a day to be alive in Minot!
Got a guess at today’s celebrity writer? It’s the original ‘Jerk’ Navin Johnson
