| Places |
Severs Corn Maze and Fall Festival:
This is the place to take your family for fall entertainment, no question. This
is really fun for everyone. Pigs racing, come on, who doesn't love that?
Very affordable. Don't miss this great Minnesota seasonal attraction!
Party Safari: 952-476-0176
1159 Wayzata Blvd.
Wayzata, MN 55391
This place is one of the greatest most unique party stores I have ever been
in. This is not your ordinary party store. The amount of creative
merchandise they carry will give you a number of ideas for your party. They
make the most amazing balloon bouquets and center pieces you will find
anywhere. I highly recommend this store for any event! Their employees
are there to help you.
Applied Graphics/ Jet Quick Printing: 952-475-3553
If you live in the western suburbs and have never visited this store, you are
missing out. I can't stand going to big copy stores. Not only can I pop in
and pop out to get any copies I need done, but they also do much of my
design work for many of my projects. They are very helpful and interested
in helping me, and do so at a great rate.
Signs Now in Wayzata: 952-404-2200
This store is great! If you ever need a sign of any type, this is the place to
go!
The Corner Door: 952-473-2274
I go in this store about once a week. Anyone looking for furniture or home
items, no matter what your age, should take a look in this store. They have
all styles, all types, and all prices. The turn over is very fast which is why I
go in weekly. Prices drop each month. Don't buy one single thing new
without looking there first! I just bought something today!
Sprit Halloween Superstore:
The details of this place are in the name. It is a super store if there ever was
one. This is a mobile store that has different locations every year. If you
can't find what you're looking for at this place you may not find it any
where. From costumes and props to special effects, they have an awesome
unbelievable selection of Halloween merchandise.
Eagle Magic and Joke Store: 612-333-4702
The oldest magic store in the USA. This is the first magic store I ever visited
when I was six years old. It's new location is fantastic. A fun place to say
the least.
Twin Cities Magic and Costume Company: 651-227-7888
We are lucky to have a store like this here in Minnesota. From Costumes,
make up, magic, and so much more, you will find your theatrical need.
Their web site does not do them justice. You must visit their store.
Pampered Pooch Playground: 952-922-8183
A friend of mine started this business a few years ago. It is a great place to
take your dog. Be sure to check it out in St. Louis Park and pamper your
pooch!

Chef Ted: 763-525-1700
I met Chef Ted a couple of years ago and was extremely impressed with the
catering he provided to people. Very professional, fun, and the food was out
of this world. The guests were raving. I know for a fact that people use him
over an over and over again for their in home events.
The Uptown Duet: 612-823-2953
Caren Simon, violinist, and Paul Umbarger, guitarist, can provide you with
terrific music for any event you may be planning especially your intimate in
home party. Their music is terrific. I have heard them play at a few events
and they do an excellent job. I believe that if you are looking for a larger band
they team up with others to create what you are looking for. I have seen them
do such a thing and the results were great, and a big crowd pleaser.
Nancy Carlson:
Nancy was one of my favorite children's author when I was a child. She is still
writing stronger than ever. We used to have a cabin near each other in
Wisconsin. She is still a favorite of mine today. The stories, the illustrations,
classic. I still have sketches of the characters from her book taped to the wall
of my closet back at my parents house where I grew up. Good memories.
Check out here web site and see ALL that she as to offer. She would be a
terrific guest at a school
Magician David Copperfield:
Terrific show. Worth seeing. He is not the greatest performer but the magic is
unbelievable.
Jim Gaffigan:
One of my favorite comics! Check out his web site and see him when he
comes to town.
Caricatures by James Hungaski:
James is a very talented artist. He does full color at as well as black and white.
The quality is superb and guests love it! He is affordable, and would be a
terrific accent to any event.
Magician Mac King:
One of the greatest magic shows in Vegas and perhaps the best value at just
over $20. Fun for every age!

Triple Espresso: This is one of the funniest live shows I have ever seen. I
have enjoyed this so much that I have gone back to see it 7 times. It plays at
the music box theater and runs off an on. I always tell people to try and see it
when the 3 original guys are doing it. I think they are the best.
1-800-FREE-411: Save yourself some money! This is a free 411
information number. It takes a bit longer than the original but it's free!
