A friend and I took The Abundant Kitchen's macaron cooking class & had a great experience. AK's…read moreowner provided a prep demo to go over the recipe & provided many do's and do not's she had either learned by experience, or from local macaron business owners in the twin cities. The demo was very helpful before we broke in to groups and tried it out for ourselves. Due to this class' popularity - the group sizes were a bit larger (we had 5). Although we all found tasks to divvy up, we did feel bad that most didn't get to really try out all the steps of making this high-maintenance cookie to really get hands-on experience. Becki, our instructor & AK owner, was very interactive and helpful throughout the whole class. She provided good tips and tricks & created a fun environment, encouraging & fostering great group interaction. During the baking time we took a brief "shopping break" to explore the store. Becki has so many practical, high-quality cooking items it is a great store. You could find absolutely anything you could possibly need in your kitchen! Back to class, Becki had prepped the buttercream for us to fill the cookies. She went over different combinations we could try with jelly fillings & then we got to try our hand at filling. We only wished we had remembered to ask a few questions about making the buttercream, since we didn't get to mix this up during the baking phase & gain hands-on experience. We are always so impressed with the variety of classes Becki offers, her passion for cooking, & we loved the great environment she fostered during the class. The members of the class were from all over the metro, proving it really is worth "the drive" to Buffalo if this is not a close location for you. AK's Facebook page and website are updated frequently to keep you in-the-know on all upcoming events. Time flies by during class! But you leave with a good experience, tactical skills, a recipe card, and for this class we each took home ~10 macarons. Bon appetit!

Fall Harvest Orchard is my family's FAVORITE orchard!…read more We started going to this orchard 5 years ago when I was looking for a nice orchard for the annual outing for the families of the Twin Cities Asian Moms Facebook group. There is a variety of fun activities for kids of different ages and many animals for people to interact with. My two boys LOVE visiting with the baby chicks every year. There are also many great options for photos with friends and family - including a sunflower field. Last but not least, there are many delicious types of apples available for purchase with the option to pick your own. The wristband is a great deal if you would like to take part in several activities - my husband and I both enjoy the Giant slide and the Barn slide. Highly recommend checking out Fall Harvest Orchard for a fun Fall outing!

We've been coming to fall harvest orchard for a few years and it seems to get better each time!…read moreEntrance is free but you can buy wristbands to be able to do more of the activities like the giant slide, large corn pit, mini putt, etc. The wristbands are well worth the price for the little ones in my opinion. They're able to do as many activities as they want and there are SO many to choose from. However, you can have plenty of fun there without the wristband. There is a smaller corn pit, animals to pet and feed, and other free activities to enjoy. There are also plenty of food trucks and spots to grab drinks which makes it ideal to spend a few hours there at least! In addition, they do have some apple trees to pick apples from if that's something you're looking for. It does get VERY busy so I'd recommend heading there pretty early. Looking forward to coming back for many years to come!

At first, obtaining a Class A seemed extremely overwhelming, and near impossible in the amount of time I had to do it. Today, I nailed that Class A test. Bill and Randy have the experience, the knowledge, and the skills to teach you everything you need to know, everything you need to say, and everything you need to do to pass your pre trip inspection and road test. Bill has his own driving course identical to the DVS course, and provides the truck to practice and test in. Offers both automatic and manual trucks in excellent condition, making it comfortable for someone without experience. Through this entire process, I only had to clear 4 days out of my schedule.

They began to clean up before 9, even though the dance went until 10:30. They took down decorations, tables and chairs to the point that there wasn't even a place for people to sit that weren't dancing. They moved people's stuff around to other places so they could take tables down which made it difficult for people to find their things. Less than a minute after the dance ended, they began to shut off the lights. Due to the fact we felt we were being pushed out, I wouldn't recommend this place

I went for a summer yoga class but left white much more than alignment!…read more First, let's start with yoga class... I ended up being the only one who signed up for that afternoon so I got a one on one session with the instructor. We did the class in the vineyard on a beautiful summer day! The instructor played music and was accommodating to my specific needs and answered all my questions! After the class I was so hot from being in the sun I went straight into the winery which had just opened! With the class I got a free glass of wine so I got to choose from several options. I decided to also do a wine flight because the wine was so good and I still needed to cool down. The staff inside also suggested that I try the pizza next door so of course I did! You can order online and then you get a text when it's ready. Once it was ready I took my flight outside to a table and then grabbed my pizza from next door. The pizza was great and so was the wine! I definitely recommend this place for a chill date, or even a gathering with friends.

We went Sunday afternoon in the middle of winter, so we didn't get to explore the Barn or what they had to offer outside, but we were perfectly happy inside. It's a small bar with a home-y vibe, games, and some cute merch (definitely bought the softest sherpa sweater). The bartender was so sweet and let us know that, even though it wasn't on the menu, we could do a mimosa flight! If you're in the area it's worth checking out!

We catered through the winery for the rehearsal dinner and they knocked it out of the park! We had wonderful pizza, salad, and a variety of desserts. Guests raved about the food! Also, their wine and cider was also a hit - as expected! Now moving to my wedding. Overall, WONDERFUL experience. To start, the winery is reasonably priced. The staff is wonderful - shoutout to Jillian, Alexis and our bartender - they took care of all setup and tear down. They were flexible with table arrangements and allow you to truly make the day your own. There is a great, spacious room for the bridal party to get ready upstairs as well! Our guests continue to comment on how lovely the outdoor space and indoor space is at Crow River Winery. There was ample space for our guests to relax inside or outside and space for the kiddos to run around and get some energy out. I have no complaints or suggestions for improvements. Our day was absolutely stress free and perfect. I would choose Crow River Winery over and over as a wedding venue - as well as a great place to stop by for a nice evening on the patio with great wine, cider, or beer AND food. Thank you Crow River Winery for helping create my dream wedding!
