37 分钟As the Minnesota State Fair kicks into high gear, we’re talking with one of the state’s most iconic food personalities. Beatrice Ojakangas, who turned 90 this year, has Minnesota roots going back to the 1800s. She grew up milking cows and churning butter on a family farm, before her first blue ribbons at the State Fair launched her on a path to culinary innovation.
This summer I was lucky enough to be able to travel abroad to Germany and Slovakia.
This fall I'll be in Italy, and I found that you can pick up even a basic level of a language.
You go to that country, you're going to connect with people better.
You're going to have a richer, deeper experience.
That's why before I hit the road, I hit up Rosetta Stone.

Her name is Sasha.
She's almost four.
She's a standard poodle.
She's got curly, fluffy, soft black hair and she's very adorable.
And she's a part of our family and we care a lot about taking good care of her.
And that includes feeding her high quality dog food like Merrick's.
