A Night on the Town


Last night Dale and I went to Bite of Burnsville, an evening of good taste. It took place at the new Burnsville Performing Arts Center in the heart of the city. We had been asked to be food judges. Well, who could say no to that? What were our qualifications you may ask...the answer is we love to eat...duh! There were 18 restaurants from the Burnsville and Lakeville area. Each restaurant gave samples from their menu. The samples were really a plate full of food. WOW, what fun. One of my favorite samplings came from AppleWood Rustic Grille. YUM it was good! There was wonderful live music and both a live auction and (not so silent) auction. We could bid on everything from a trip to Marco Island to the pick of the litter Golden Retriever puppy. The end of the evening was capped off with a performance from Bob Stromberg, Co-creator and star of "Triple Espresso." His hour long show was both funny and nostalgic. We had a great time and look forward to next years Bite of Burnsville.
