Mayor proclaims Taste Day
Even Mayor R.T. Rybak reads Taste. (We're not surprised!) As we celebrate the 40th birthday of this award-winning food section, the mayor adds his thoughts to the discussion with an official proclamation that notes:
"In the years to come, may the Star Tribune Taste section continue to nourish minds and bodies with its thoughtful reverence for the food before us.
To see the whole proclamation (and you really should -- it wraps up all that Taste has done), click here.
AND JOIN US IN CELEBRATING THE 40th BIRTHDAY! Events this week include:
- Thursday, Oct. 1 - 7:30 p.m. showing of "Mildred Pierce" at the Heights Theater in Columbia Heights (a tale of a waitress, a really bad daughter -- and a murder)
- Friday, Oct. 2 - Noon - The carillon bells at City Hall will ring out with food-related songs in honor of Taste. You can hear it anywhere outside in downtown Minneapolis. Join in and sing along!
- Saturday, Oct. 3 - all morning - A birthday party for the public at the Mill City Farmers Market (next to the Guthrie) with cake and conversation (past and present Taste staffers). JOIN US!
