The Mary Tyler Moore Statue

Yes, The Mary Tyler Moore Show is my all-time favorite television sit-com. I remember Mom pointing out scenes of Minneapolis from the opening credits of the show as it played on our portable Panasonic television while she was cutting my hair in the kitchen on a summer night way back in 1970 or 1971. I was young enough to think that Mary actually lived here.

The Lowbrow for Sunday Brunch

Dale and I skipped church and went to The Lowbrow for brunch today. He had bacon and eggs. I got a buttermilk pancake and a sandwich called The Truckstop. It's egg, sausage, and cheese on a fluffy white bun. It's delicious.
