Benshoof: Holding down the pillow fort (with video)
FARGO - Starting this weekend area residents will be repeating a popular refrain: “Baby, it’s cold outside.” Our already frigid temps are forecast to plummet even more, which will lead to some of the coldest – and most dangerous –conditions of the season.

Benshoof: Finding some tropical colors during the ‘blahs’ of January
FARGO – There’s no way around it – January is a “blah” time of the year.

Benshoof: Overloading on good luck traditions for 2013
While New Year’s Eve is just another night for some people, I always value the end of the old year and beginning of the new.

Benshoof: Zombies – the life of a party, or a terrifying possibility?
FARGO – The Zombie Pub Crawl is long over, but thanks to pop culture like AMC’s “The Walking Dead,” zombies are always in season.
