What to do on the last Sunday of the month in the mid-morning? I think it’s time for brunch. I’ve had a friend up from Rochester for the weekend, always a good thing for me, because it means I actually do a little cleaning at my place, to at least give the appearance that I’m civilised. And we’ve been exploring all the things that Minneapolis has to offer before he heads out to live in Madison.

He arrived Friday afternoon, and we went to Block E to see the cheap matinee of Sky High. Quite enjoyable, albeit a little predictable. Typical Disney Channel stuff, but on a bigger budget, and still fun. The Block E theater is really convenient, but they need to work on their popcorn. It generally tastes like salty, lukewarm packing peanuts. The buttery goop gives it a slightly better taste, but since you now have to add your own butter, like at most theaters, you only get the top really well-covered.

Afterwards, we stayed at Block E for dinner at Applebee’s. It’s a chain place, but again, nice and convenient. I then left my friend to his own devices and met up with him after the next part of my evening, which is the subject of my next post.
