Junior Davy Nelson and Murray eighth grader Arthur Anderson made up the full 7-man state roster.
Encompassing 40 acres, the Hansen Tree Farm in Ramsey is the closest Christmas tree farm to the Twin Cities, and it has local roots: It’s owned by longtime St. Anthony Park residents and brothers Dave and Mark Hansen.
The last 2022 mural, “Untitled” by Povi Marie, is located at Terra Firma, 2350 W. Territorial Road.
The set of four greeting cards can be purchased for $15 at the following establishments: boréal, The Little Wine Shoppe, Gypsy Moon, Next Chapter Booksellers, Hang It and RoseAndRedwood.com.

Healthy Holiday Cookie Tip: Drop cookie dough by the tablespoon rather than a full cookie scoop. Smaller portions allow for more variety and make it easier to check in with yourself between bites on whether you are full and satisfied, or if you’d like more.

And novelist Annie Proulx turns to nonfiction in “Fen, Bog & Swamp”, looking at wetlands across the northern hemisphere, including Minnesota’s lakes.
“Lady Justice: Women, the Law, and the Battle to Save America” by Dahlia Lithwick profiles the women fighting to keep our legal system fair and accountable. Sarah Kendzior shows us the results of our worst impulses in “They Knew: How a Culture of Conspiracy Keeps America Complacent”.
Pulitzer Prize-winner Stacy Schiff is back with a biography of Samuel Adams — and it’s not just about his career as a brewer. Her fellow Pulitzer recipient Jon Meachan has written a definitive biography of Abraham Lincoln. And Pekka Hamalainen’s book “Indigenous Continent: The Epic Contest for North America” is an eye-opening retelling of the continent’s history that upends almost everything you learned in high school.
This fall sees new novels from Celeste Ng, Peter Geye, Frederik Backman, George Saunders and Elizabeth Strout. And don’t miss Jean’s special pick: “The Whalebone Theatre”. She calls it a novel that “touches every human emotion.”
“The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters” by Priya Parker is full of practical ways to make the season more meaningful and memorable. And Claire Saffitz’ new cookbook “What’s For Dessert” is packed with decadent recipes that are as easy to make as they are delicious.
Marie Kondo’s “Kurashi at Home: How to Organize Your Space and Achieve Your Ideal Life” focuses not on what to get rid of, but on conscious, mindful choices to help you take advantage of every part of your home and your day.
