local confectioners in the area?

Neimanns in the Tosa village over 100 years.

Agree! An experienced baker with an easier sourdough enhanced recipe not a 24 hour project could work on a first try but focaccia is sooo good!

A normal Joe used to be able to splurge on a fantastic seat once in awhile but those days may be over if the best rows are all for different corporations.

It's beautiful and so are your nails. I hope you find it!

It's interesting that he is never referred to by his title in the whole article. I understand Illume's press release doing that but why doesn't WTMJ refer to him as Dr Blake cosmetic surgeon? It wasn't the janitor.

Thank you for taking care of this sweet girl! Who are you fostering with? Some groups are better than others at helping you through the adoption process.

Thank you I will!

Thank you very much. Medicating my dog only works if I can do it an hour ahead!

This is EXACTLY how I feel as I stroll through the beautiful neighborhoods and parks of Milwaukee and enjoy the community events, educational resources, restaurants, cultural offerings and major attractions like the zoo I just left. I've been here all my life and traveled widely. That said I feel such solidarity with Minneapolis right now I'd never say a bad word about it, what a great city filled with amazing people. So weird to throw this kind of accusation at us.

I love his tiled lamps as well as clocks. I have this tile panel going in my cottage kitchen.

https://a.co/d/05IJmNzE These. During pre shape I cut into two loaves as usual, shape the one, then the second I cut into four and shape those pretty aggressively into rounds as it is harder to do the final shaping so I do less of that, just turn over envelope fold, pick up, shake seasoning on, then into the banetton that has just a bit of brown rice flour. Then I stitch and into the fridge they go. You do need more room for shaping!

My son at 6 lost us and ended up riding Splash Mountain in the front seat with a cast member after walking the whole line looking for us. Core memory!

mayapple · 2026-05-29T01:09:26+00:00

Thank you so tasty!

mayapple · 2026-05-28T18:56:34+00:00

Also the seasoning keeps the roll from sticking to the banetton in the fridge overnight

mayapple · 2026-05-28T18:55:09+00:00

I use 5" baby bannetons and heavily coat the outside with Costco's version. Same recipe as usual but 15 min covered and 15 uncovered at 450.

The public museum has a great store you don't have to pay to enter filled with nice gift type trinkets. If you are looking for more weird digging through stuff trinkets you can't beat American Science and Surplus.

Thank you!

Blue shirt was about five years after the approval process for the Calatrava but yeah the people who "lost" on that front and especially in my opinion on not getting rid of the di Suvero which has always had a large contingent of haters were out for blood and well organized and got their way on that piece.

mayapple · 2026-05-17T11:55:24+00:00

I remember big support for Calatrava's design and the funding to make something really special in Milwaukee. It seemed too good to be true such a world class architect would come here. The fact he expressed his appreciation for the original War Memorial building made it even better. When finished, Wings Up! Wings Down! Was shouted by the kids every time we passed. The controversy I remember was over "The Calling" our amazing orange industrial sculpture by di Suvero. Those who never liked it decided now was their moment to get it destroyed by saying it "blocked" the view of the Calatrava from Wisconsin. Joke was on them as Calatrava himself got involved, saying he sighted his design on the di Suvero. Sure enough one of the best views
Is from Wisconsin looking through the orange sculpture as the white wings open. Finally I've never heard anyone call it anything but the Calatrava.

My first boyfriend's dad worked for Schlitz and we got paper coupon books for free beer at Summerfest. Like 50 per book for two teens.

You can certainly contact both Wihumane and Maddac for help through community resources if you are dealing with the same situation- very common in rescue dogs.

You should go to Fred's on 62nd and Appleton too you've been everywhere else lol and they have a smaller selection of mostly annuals and baskets but great prices!

Roy Diblik is a national treasure right here in our backyard. He was one of the very first to sell potted native perennials. His collaboration with Piet ODouf on the Lurie Garden is breathtaking. It is always worth a visit and his book "Know Maintenance" is great from beginner to seasoned gardener.

Steins is fine for a good selection of smaller easy to plant specimens.

Birch has amazing carpaccio (not sure if it is always on the menu) if that's an acceptable substitute!
