I am so impressed with the hennepin county library system...oxboro just happens to be the one I use. I was able to reserve and checkout cd's to prepare for my daughters birthday party without talking to a person. You cannot get more quick and streamilined than this. I went online tracked down the cd's to 2 local libraries had them sent to 1 library then went to get them and was in and out in minutes. Excellent

More
The Mall Of America is a great place to take your family occasionally or if they are visiting from out of town. For regular everyday quick shopping I would recommend doing it at a smaller less crowded mall. The Mall is great for the experience of going but the shopping is not easy since you may want to visit many stores which are all under the same roof but not conveniently located near each other. Be prepared to walk for hours upon hours, wear comfortable shoes.

My family has been attending this church for a little more than a year and we love it. We worked very hard at finding a church that fit our relgious and social values and this church is a perfect fit. It is a wonderful old building in downtown Mpls and has traditional services with amazing music. It is an active congregation working to put their faith in action and positively impact the greater community. The community involvement and work for peace and social justice are what led us to this great church!

My husband and I have been searching for a place to call home. Coming from two seperate religions we were open to exploring many different churches. We stopped by Mount Olivet on a very busy Sunday morning. We were both blown away by how large the congregation was!!! Everyone was friendly and very inviting. We felt very comfortable as visitors being at this church. We look forward to going back again.

This community is very welcoming to everyone that walks though the doors. They have open discussion and conversation. Conversations frequently continue after the service downstairs during coffee and cookies.
The only thing I don't like is that the only option of a service to attend is 10:30 on Sunday. I would prefer something earlier so I could get back home before noon.
They do have a great religious education program where the kids learn about many world religions.

I was a member of Toastmasters for 5 years. They have clubs all over the Twin Cities (and the world for that matter). The only reason that I left was because I had a baby and my life got way to busy.
They have a well defined program to step you through speeches to become more comfortable giving a variety of presentations. You also have opportunities to learn about and improve your impromptu speaking, evaluation techniques, and even leadership skills!
I would recommend visiting a couple clubs in your area before joining one. Each club has a bit of a different feel and members in it for different reasons. You want to find a club that fits you and your schedule.
You can search for clubs at their website: toastmasters.org

If the Minneapolis Farmer's Market did not exist, I don't know where I would find good produce. Sure, the other local grocery stores carry "fresh" produce during summer months but nothing can compare to the deliciousness of the produce at the Minneapolis Farmer's Market. I recently discovered that it will be open through Christmas Eve this year so I will be sure to see what fresh goodies they have during the winter. I am always amazed at the local goods that I can find.
Even though it can be a little hard to find, maybe just for the navigationally challenged, I think that it is worth the extra work! Plus, it is a fun, Saturday outing, much more exciting than a trip to Lund's or Rainbow!

The downtown YWCA is a great place to have your child in child care. The teachers are nice and caring, the location is convenient for people who work downtown and the hours are perfect. The children also get to go on walks to places downtown like the farmer’s market and looking at the fountains.

Shephered by world renown preacher and writer John Piper, Bethelehem Baptist is the true essence of humility and yearning to learn about the Word of God. Services are Saturday nights and Sunday mornings at 8, 9:30, and 11:45. Bethlehem also offers a great deal of fellowship and outreach events during the week, for both children and adults.

More
The midwives here are outstanding in every way. For my first and only child, the midwives here educated me wach step of the way. I honestly felt like my pregnancy was special, even though there were hundreds of other women who were with child in their clinic. They had a sincere interest in each step of my pregnancy. In the birthing room, they adhered to each and every wish I had in my birthing plan, even when I was out of from the pain, etc...The rooms are very nice and homey looking, nothing like a hospital room - this was just an all around wonderful experience for me.
