Drink
Looking for paradise in Minneapolis? Check out Eden at Le Meriden Chambers (901 Hennepin Av, Mpls, 612-767-6999), which we much prefer in the summer sans ice bar. Try the pear, elderflower and cranberry Perarosa under the stars.

Shop
It's finally sandals weather and they're already on marked down. Check out the Pumpz & Company (Galleria, Edina, 952-926-2252) sale this weekend. Through May 31, select spring and summer styles will be 30 percent off and older styles will be up to 80 percent off.

Click and lick
We're so screaming for ice cream lately and so happy that Izzy's has live online flavor updates. Play games with the candy-colored spots. Salted caramel, you're still our favorite!

Party/shop
It is worth seeing "Sex and the City 2" this weekend, just for Liza Minnelli's rendition of "Single Ladies." In the spirit of the festivities, check out our list of SATC sales and events, including tonight's bargain-riffic shopping party at Peppermint Park.
