Violations of Federal Mask Mandate Could Bring Fines up to $1500
Thinking about going somewhere in the early Spring to get away from the cold temperatures that we get here in the great state of Minnesota is what most people want to do. Granted, with the fact that you need to have a negative COVID test 3-5 days before entering the United States has put somewhat of a damper on any international travel, but you may want to get to Florida, Arizona, Southern Texas, or whatever warm-ish place is available. If you plan to do so, you better adhere to the federal mask mandate aboard planes, trains and busses. Granted, most people have been doing that, but now that it is federally mandated, the fines could be pretty extensive.
Paczki Season Has Arrived Across Central Minnesota
My little Polish heart is filled to the brim, just like these seasonal donuts.
Pączki are filled doughnuts found in Polish cuisine that usually make an appearance around Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday. Traditional paczki share some common elements: sweet filling, dough, grain alcohol, icing or bits of dried orange zest, and lots of powdered sugar. These super-sweet treats are meant to be savored before the 40 days of lent and fasting get underway.
In some areas of the Midwest, there is even a Paczki day, held the Thursday before Mardi Gras. (This year it would be Thursday, February 11th.)

So, if you ve had it with the cold weather and you re planning to take a flight out of here for awhile, we did some digging. We decided to find the warmest location on the planet right now, today.
If you re looking to catch some heat, according to WeatherUnderground.Com, you ll have to travel to Nadi or Suva, Fiji. It s expected to be 88 degrees there today, according to Weather.Com. For some reason, I thought the hottest place on the planet would be a little hotter than that. I mean, July in Minnesota is hotter than that. You d think Fiji, even in the winter, would be like a million degrees. But, no.
