A family interview with Kokum

I was listening to Minnesota Public Radio and they had a piece on Alzheimers. One part that struck a chord with me was a project called Storycorps. http://www.storycorps.net/initiatives/mli . Adrienne had talked of doing this with Mom in the past. They even have a sample list of questions. http://www.storycorps.net/initiatives/mli/question-list . Maybe this is something we could do as a family? I think it would be good for all of us to get together for a weekend or something and visit with mom.

Here is the original NPR website ... http://speakingoffaith.publicradio.org/programs/2009/alzheimers/

Bockfest!

 

Every year, Fitgers has Bockfest. German celebration of 'opening the bock'. Here you see them putting a hot 'poker' in the bock beer, which carmelizes the malt and makes the beer hot and sweet.
