Greetings!

 

 

He looked a bit depressed when he walked into the kitchen. He raised his head and said, "I only have 60 days of summer vacation left, Dad."  My 6 year old was bummed because his summer seemed to be flying by.  I told him I had only 5 days off this summer.  He didn't seem to care.  I guess 6 year olds have a different perspective on things.

Summer is a great time to take a trip, get in touch with friends you haven't talked to in a while and do some grilling.  This time is precious in Minnesota so take advantage of it!

 

If you don't have 60 days at your disposal to get your home repairs done, maybe our coupons can help motivate you to make a call to Bonfe's for a helping hand. Enjoy your summer and the warm weather because the State Fair is right around the corner.....

"Because Getting There Is Half The Fun"

 

The smells, the sounds, the arguments over who is on whose side.  The ever looming threat of Dad pulling the car over.  We've all been there.  This stuff comes up on every family road trip.  These vacations can be brutal.  They're a ton of work, but for most of us, they give us memories that will last a lifetime.

 

Like Clark W. Griswald said in the 1983 movie classic Vacation "Because getting there is half the fun.  You know that."  Now when you're traveling with kids, it CAN be fun, but there are times when your patience can be stretched to the limit.

"Is It Supposed To Taste Like This?"  

 

Beer Can Chicken
Chicken and a Can

"Dad, why is my chicken so crunchy?"  More often than not, I get asked questions like this from my kids when I try to grill chicken.  Not any longer!

   

Take a look at this incredibly easy recipe for beer can chicken from www.foodnetwork.comIt's quick, it's easy and guaranteed to be juicy.  Sorry, kids, no more burned chicken for you.  Dad finally has a secret recipe up his sleeve.

Don't forget that Bonfe's offers plumbing, heating and air conditioning, electrical, drain cleaning and appliance repairs for the entire Twin Cities Metro Area.
