On Dec. 8, 2023, I went to the West End Makers & Artisan Market that is sponsored by Muddy Paws…read moreCheesecake owner, Tami Cabrera. She created this market to help artists and artisans, and to collect toy donations (as well as household goods and non-perishable food items for humans and pets) for STEP (the St. Louis Park Emergency Program). It's the annual event's first year in this space, and according to the website, the Market will be going on AT LEAST through December 27, 2023, Tuesday-Sunday from 11:00am-5pm. We parked in the ramp across the street and had no trouble finding this space. It was well lit and clearly identified. The space inside is also well lit, and there's plenty of room to move around in. There's a central counter where you bring the items you wish to purchase to pay for them. For the event that day, a donation to STEP earned you a ticket for a free slice of Muddy Paws Cheesecake. They had on offer about a dozen different flavors that evening, "New York" being one, and it's my absolute favorite, both in texture and flavor. My companion chose a slice of the Salted Caramel, which is equally delicious, but in a different way. For environmental reasons, I was so pleased to see the slices being served in paper board boxes, instead of the previous clear hard-plastic clam shells. There's a large section displaying the clothing pieces designed by St. Paulite, Laura Hlavac. Also available are jewelry made by various artisans, artisan pieces made from things such as snow skis, hockey sticks, hockey pucks, metal piping, golf balls, leather scraps and antique flour sacks, quirky greeting cards, handmade holiday ornaments, soaps, candles, lotions & potions, unique clothing pieces, and hats. In addition, you'll find a large selection of locally-designed puzzles. So many different things to see! And if you find yourself becoming a bit "hangry", buy yourself a slice of Muddy Paws Cheesecake and a bottle of water (or a cup of coffee if they're offering it) and set yourself down for a little while on one of the kids' chairs and relax, and enjoy your slice of delight. Or buy a slice (or an entire cheesecake) on your way out to enjoy later on at home!

The staff were enthusiastic to stamp my library passport and asked me questions about some of my favorite locations so far. They told me about the unique features of this location - kids garden (which not sure it's been started just yet for this year) and there's a pollination garden on the lake view side. They had some seating options but generally felt a bit smaller overall compared to some other locations, so I love that they have areas outside to sit. Definitely worth checking out on a nice day!

Some shops are empty and others are being remodeled and opening again. I visited on a Friday (Valentine's Day) and it was pretty steady but not packed, I could find a place to sit down and relax by myself if I wanted to (and I did!) Shop selection is meh, I went into a few but didn't find anything to purchase which is just fine by me - I needed a place to hang out that was warm and this was it! Bubble tea, Caribou and smoothies to choose from - I didn't see a food court but I wasn't particularly looking.

There's only a handful of store I really shop at here but I'm sure overall there's something for everyone. I feel like Ridgedale has been one of the consistent malls (as far as growing up in MN and seeing a lot of malls struggle to keep stores) that never felt like it was closing. I do wish they would decorate more especially for the holidays. They have the Santa pop up in the middle of the mall which is cute but that's its own experience. Also a somewhat better food court would be cool, but there are a ton of options for food outside of the mall/in the area. They do host cool events from time to time like the traveling Hello Kitty Cafe, which is cool.

FREE PARKING... WHOOO HOOO!!!!!!!…read more I would agree with Sarah P. Marquette IS a cluster f#$%! (at least the other week it still was, anyways) I came downtown to meet a friend for some drinks at Brits Pub around 7pm, so needless to say there were no parking spots on the streets available at all. I decided to park here, since she lives in a studio on Marquette.. this was the closest place to park. We went for drinks, everything was fun and all, and I didn't realize that the ramp actually closes!!! I got back to my car around 1ish.. not exactly sure. But the place was really shady.. I mean really shady. Like tons of weirdos hanging out in the entrance way and what not, I was a bit worried, but they were cool. Me, being the idiot that I can be, had a little convo with them.. they seemed alright! As I was leaving, THAT'S when I realized they didn't take cards! WHAT.. who the F--- doesn't accept card these days? I didn't have any cash on me at all, but then I also realized that there was NO ONE there to even take my money! so what did I do? I did the dine and ditch of parking ramps of course! A Park and Ditch! HA. The ramp gives you these little envelope things to stick your money in since it was closed, so I just ripped off my car number, and put the empty envelope in the slot. The gates won't open until you put your envelope in the slot, so I had to think of something fast.. Now, there is no evidence.. I don't feel bad about it either.. I'm sure it happens all the time. Now, if there is a ticket in my mail in a few weeks, well, that is a different story.. I'll keep y'all posted! Maybe I shouldn't post that, but hey, who doesn't like to know about money saving tips?!?!?!?!
