We met Jake at the St. Olaf Christmas Festival last night. We made it in time for the concert, but not in time for the Scandinavian Buffet, complete with lutefisk and lefse. Too bad, but we did pick up some food from Wendy's to eat on our drive there. It was bitter cold, but worth the effort to go. And so nice to spend some time with Jake.
Today was Bruce's birthday, and we went to visit Grandma Gloria. It was a bitter cold morning and we decided it was too cold to go to Perkins. We ate at Meridian Manor and then Bruce and I went shopping. We also went to dinner at the Russian restaurant. Tonight the place was a bit busier, and there was a guy singing in Russian to taped music. We had the beef stroganoff again, but sampled a different salad (think potato salad with chicken and pickles) and soup (filled with whole green and black olives and pieces of sausage). We decided we liked the Borscht and beet salad better.
No birthday cake for Bruce, but we did pick up a Twix candy bar to eat later on. I hope it was a good enough birthday for him!
