What's YOUR favorite sandwich? (It's probably not what this survey said...)

Minnesota was ranked 8th best overall for cost, 5th best for safety, and 21st overall for activities.

I love living in Minnesota. Not only is it a land of lakes, but it's also a land of hard workers. Not to mention, Minnesota is home to many decent jobs, and naturally, good jobs increase median incomes. However, certain areas in Minnesota take the cake when it comes to affordability.

The last year and a half were challenging. COVID-19 brought the States a lot of unprecedented difficulties that many are still facing today. While the pandemic has seemingly died down a bit, people still face a lot of stressors. Luckily, Minnesotans combat those stressors well, or at least they do compared to other states.

2020 has put us all through the wringer, and we can only imagine what the winter months of this global pandemic will look like.

When I was a kid, my mom had an antique, ceramic angel she placed at the top of our Christmas tree. My wife, now that I'm married, puts a simple, wooden star at the top of our tree.
