Luminary Loppet in MSP

One of my co-workers mentioned this during lunch today - that there is this event called Luminary Loppet. At first I had no clue what she was talking about (actually I still kind of have no clue) but basically it is an ice show of some sort and you cross-country sky / snowshoe / walk through the display. And something about it being on / around the lake(s) in Minneapolis. Interesting...
Anyways, it's during the 1st weekend of February, so I'm not sure if will postpone our Cali plans?

The co-worker mentioned it during our Holiday Potluck. It was a bit odd because ... well, we were instructed to bring 'ethnic' food. Keeping inline with my European heritage (...) I brought German potato salad, which came fresh out of the prepared food section at the grocery store. Oh! I just remembered - I had a whole bunch left over (apparently people don't like eating potato salad, sucks to be them b/c I like it! :) So I had to put it somewhere. Knowing we have no fridges at work, and it was 14 degrees outside, I kept it in my car.) Except it's still in my car. I'll go get it now. =)

...

I came back, and was like, "Man, these potatoes really don't taste like they're fresh. How dare the prepared food section at the grocery store make potato salad with previously frozen potatoes and not fresh ones?!" And then it hit me like a rock. It is 14 degrees outside. I probably froze them in my car. :(

Buffalo!! Help me not eat frozen foods all the time... Let's cook fresher-stuffs at your place, k? :) :)
