Sent and Tried

At last week's Minnesota Young Food Professionals' happy hour, we made food resolutions for 2015.

How self-referential.

For this first post of 2015, I'll review two of the goals I made for 2014. The first goal was to send 52 pieces of mail. Pieces of mail actually sent? Twenty-four. But some of them were pretty sweet, like this package I put together for +Garnet Bruell.

A box full of letters, motorized sushi, and "A little sugar from your MN sugar mama."

The second goal was to try 52 new things. I counted forty-one new activities tried. Here's a selection:
  • Attend and judge Pundamonium.
  • Get a piercing.
  • Paddle board.

  • Get advice from an attorney.
  • Call 911.
  • Visit an impound lot.

  • Buy and use a state parks permit.
  • Take a solo road trip.
  • Take a parkour class.

Check out that dive roll.

  • Interview candidates for a serious job.
  • Precept dietetic interns.
  • Help plan a conference.

  • Raft through rapids.
  • Attend a Baptist church.
  • Spectate B.A.S.E jumping.

Many thanks to everyone who assisted me, wittingly or not, in a working toward this goal. And a special shout-out to +Susan DeBlieck, who spontaneously checked in with me about both goals. You'll get a piece of mail this year, I promise!
