Stillwater home decked out for Halloween

As soon as the Labor Day holiday weekend passes, the Bracewell-Musson family begins decorating their Victorian home for Halloween. The displays are set up from lawn to rooftop. Each year the family adds new elements, many of which are chosen by their son, Chad. The home is located on the corner of 4th Street South and Marsh Street West. Starting Nov. 1, they’ll begin switching over their décor for Christmas. They expect it’ll be fully ready for the holidays by Nov. 11. They’ve also started decorating for Easter.

At Mogi Bagel business is booming

Many of our favorite local eats got their start through a food truck or pop up. That list includes Hola Arepa, Soul Bowl, Animales Barbecue and Marty’s Deli. Add Mogi Bagels to that list. A year ago Megan Berray-Larsen decided she wanted to make and sell New York style bagels. After three months working with the recipe, she had it down and launched Mogi Bagels. She started baking them at her house and popping up at farmers markets. The bagels became an instant hit after Chef Yia Vang sang their praises on social media. Berray-Larsen quit her job and set up shop in a commercial kitchen. She is still popping up at events and offering bagel pickup at the Kitchen Space in Minneapolis. Bagel orders open on Sundays at noon. To find out where she’ll be popping up and see the flavor offerings, follow along on Instagram @mogi_bagel.

This will also be the last weekend for Twin Cities Harvest Festival in Brooklyn Park. Ferguson’s Minnesota Harvest in Jordan will remain open through Nov. 5 and Aamodt’s Apple Farm is open through December, but many of their fall offerings will wrap up this weekend as well.
