The coffee chain is expected to be in operation within two months.
The long-rumored addition of Starbucks to the Northfield Target were confirmed Monday. Northfield Building Inspector Jim Kessler told the Northfield News that Starbucks should be up and running within two months. It's the latest information to come out about the expansion plans of the local Target. Last week, Jamie Bastian with Target's communications department told Patch that the Northfield Target was one of several hundred slated for an expanded fresh food section. She couldn't confirm a Starbucks addition at that time and on Monday did not return an email asking about the rumored addition. Starbucks joins a large slate of coffee shops in Northfield, including Bittersweet Café, Caribou Coffee, Goodbye Blue Monday Coffee House, Hideaway …

It may not be that cold, but folks are ready to kiss winter goodbye.
The wrath of winter may not be what it was a year ago, but folks still descended on Bridge Square on Saturday to participate in Northfield Historical Society'ssecond annual Winter Scream. The fundraiser offered ice cream, donated by Hogan Brothers Acoustic Café, and chili, donated by J. Grundy's Rueb 'N' Stein, for a $5 donation. Highlighting the event was the communal singing of Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It," but with a wintry twist of seasonally appropriate lyrics. In an attempt to bid winter farewell, these lyrics were sung: We’ve got no friends in Phoenix We’ve blown through all our Kleenex We’re not going to take it, any more. We’ve braved the snow and ice We’ve shivered more than twice We’re not going to take it, anymore…
