Oh hi! I wanted to share a few articles about our little community here in Minnesota. The first is about a small store hosting drag queen story time, something I am 1000000000% supportive of. If I did drag I'd be doing story time wherever I was invited. This Chaska children’s store feels community support ahead … Continue reading Five Fabulous Links for Friday

Murder She Watched
The MN T-Girls kicked off July with our monthly event? Adventure? This past Saturday seven fabulously dressed girls visited the Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis for a stage performance of "Murder on the Orient Express" based on the book by Agatha Christie. It was a wonderful performance and I would absolutely recommend going but, well, this … Continue reading Murder She Watched
A Small Fish in a Big Ocean
Part of living in the world is finding your place in it. There's always a place for everyone but sometimes we have to carve out our own niche and create a space that is perfect for oneself. That was part of my thinking when I thought about what I wanted the MN T-Girls to be … Continue reading A Small Fish in a Big Ocean
Pride and Storms
Pride weekend has come and gone for another year. As always, it was lovely to be out in the community and to meet so many people. I was excited about Pride but I have to admit I was a little off, a little tired. I started off strong... ...but as the day progressed my energy … Continue reading Pride and Storms

Although the documentary doesn't air until June 27th, if you have a TPR Passport membership you can stream it now. Barbara Jean, the Queen … Continue reading Casa Susanna Part Deux

Living the Supermodel Dream
This weekend I lived the supermodel dream when I visited the talented photographer and amazing human being, Alison Malone of Malone Portraits. Alison has a studio in northeast Minneapolis and I was honored when I was invited to contribute to her portfolio, specifically boudoir shots celebrating gender nonconforming people. She didn't have to ask twice. … Continue reading Living the Supermodel Dream
Ask Hannah!
In the beginning, to save a little money did you alter some of "his" clothes to be your clothes? If you did how did you go about finding a person to do that for you? There are quite a few of "his" things that I would like to be turned into mine. This is something … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
From Makeup Brushes to Paint Brushes!
This weekend was the monthly event for the MN T-Girls and it was something we've never done before as a group... we took a painting class! A small group of us spent a rainy Saturday afternoon with Terri Berg who teaches painting for groups and parties. She was very patient and just super fun to … Continue reading From Makeup Brushes to Paint Brushes!
Turning Point
I get quite a few emails from partners and spouses of people like me and likely people like you. We are on our own journeys but we all experience many of the same things. One of the commonalities is that we know there is something different (and amazing and beautiful) about us AND it's something … Continue reading Turning Point
