This weekend was the monthly MN T-Girls event. After a very hectic first half of summer, we thought it would be nice to relax over coffee and delicious snacks at Patisserie 46, a cafe/bakery in South Minneapolis. So, that is exactly what we did. This was our first event after Pride and although the group … Continue reading Girls Just Want to Have Lunch

Thank You, Pride
Oh hi! So, Pride was this past weekend and it was lovely. Planning an event in June could mean anything from sweltering hot temperatures to storms but this weekend's weather could only be described as "lovely". Okay, so it was windy on Saturday but that's better than melting in the heat. In fact it was … Continue reading Thank You, Pride
Pride Month isn’t Pride Monthing
Pride month is almost over... and maybe it's just me, but Pride Month hasn't really Pride Monthed this year like previous years. I might be wrong, but there seems to be less... hm, outreach and representation this year than last. I know that there is likely some pandering when major corporations do things like tweeting … Continue reading Pride Month isn’t Pride Monthing

I’m on a Boat
Well, I was, along with some of my MN T-Girls friends. This Saturday was our monthly event and we took to the dangerous gentle waves of the Mississippi River . We spent a lovely afternoon on a giant paddleboat on a leisurely cruise down one of the most important bodies of water in the state. … Continue reading I’m on a Boat
Saturday Night Makeup Party
It's humbling and exciting when you realize how much you don't know. I've been wearing makeup for almost twenty years and over time I've adapted to a changing face in terms of shape as well as through the natural progression of aging. I use different techniques and products today compared to ten years ago. So … Continue reading Saturday Night Makeup Party
Gangster Girls
The MN T-Girls have had over one hundred monthly events during the ten plus years since our group started. Some of the adventures we have had are as simple as coffee and girl talk, some are annual events, like the Halloween party, and some focus on femme presentation, such as makeup lessons. And then there … Continue reading Gangster Girls
Putting the U in Support Group
Last year the MN T-Girls celebrated our ten year anniversary. I honestly feel that this group will be one of the biggest accomplishments in my life. Which is kind of strange because it's something I keep a secret to half of the people in my world. My work colleagues would be stunned if they knew, … Continue reading Putting the U in Support Group
Someone Told Me it’s All Happening at the Zoo
And they were right! The MN T-Girls had our monthly adventure this weekend and we did something we haven't done before. We visited the zoo. Specifically we spent most of our time in the conservatory of Como Zoo in Saint Paul but we did get to see a sloth, turtles, some giant fish, and a … Continue reading Someone Told Me it’s All Happening at the Zoo
Hard Candy
This past Saturday was the monthly MN T-Girls outing and girl, I was lucky to GET out. What I mean is that we did an escape room and it was SO HARD. If it wasn't for the smart girls in our group I'd still be locked in the room trying to find a way out. We … Continue reading Hard Candy
