Made it all the way to Minneapolis for the ACRL Conference! I started off things with one of my favorite lunches of all time at Kramarczuk's. Whenever I'm in Minneapolis, you can find me savoring Ukrainian cuisine here. If you're an @hello user and are interesting in connecting, message me! I'll be around all week and would love to chat. I may or may not have a few KC stickers too. 🙂 (2025-04-01 ↗)
