The sun is out and, for the faintest moment, it seems as though the dark days of winter are behind us. Jump into this sunny week with new media to consume.

“Jeff Goldblum” by Mattiel: Atlanta-based indie duo Mattiel released “Georgia Gothic,” their 3rd album, on Friday. The first track (and first single released earlier), “Jeff Goldblum,” is a love song as enigmatic as its namesake. “He came and met me in the bathroom, a little like a younger Jeff Goldblum,” the song begins. As the sunshine returns to Minneapolis, I’ve been in the mood for a cheerier, warm-weather soundtrack to walk around with. This song is the epitome of that feeling for me, with a vaguely vintage sound and addictive soft rock hook. The rest of the album is wonderful too, but this song in particular has been on repeat. Also, who doesn’t love Jeff Goldblum? – Bel Moran

Midway Used & Rare Books: There are tons of independent bookstores in the Twin Cities and I am determined to visit all of them. Over the weekend I stopped at Midway Used & Rare Books, which is three floors worth of bargain book heaven. Located right off of University Avenue and Snelling, the endearing store is packed with antique novels, half-off paperbacks and collectable comics. If you’re looking for something new to do in the cities, hop on the METRO Green Line to St. Paul and you’ll end up right outside a reader’s paradise. – Sarah Horner

Mother Co., Plants: The light at the end of the Minnesotan-winter tunnel has finally begun to fall upon us, and the sun is shining again. The snow is melting, the slush is gone and the imminent Minnesotan itch to add some new green foliage to our homes has blossomed again. Located in both northeast Minneapolis and St. Paul, Mother offers year-round desert plants and succulents for sale, plant accessories and gifts and an overall aesthetically pleasing plant-shopping experience as you walk through their sunlight-bathed, 65 degree shop. Venturing to the nearest location will leave your serotonin replenished and ready for summer, regardless of if we may or may not get another snowfall before permanent warm weather – I’m not jinxing anything, I swear. – Carly Quast

Squash Goals at Crisp & Green: Although the University provides many amazing food options, if you are looking for a sweet, savory and healthy option for your next meal, stop at Crisp & Green and try their Squash Goals salad. After a good workout or a long day of classes, this salad will be exactly what you need to satisfy your hunger. The salad consists of a blend of chicken, apples, maple-roasted butternut squash, quinoa, white cheddar cheese and candied pecans. With all of this tossed with Crisp & Green’s special apple cider pumpkin seed dressing, this perfection of a blend will make it hard to stop coming back for more. Crisp & Green will switch out the salad for newer and springier options soon, so go try it out before it is gone. – Harry Madden

“The Always Sunny Podcast”: If you’re not a fan of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” this isn’t the podcast for you. Not because the podcast is just for the most devoted of fans, or incomprehensible to outsiders because it’s too referential to the show, but because the podcast feels like extra episodes of the show. Our hosts (Charlie Day, Glenn Howerton and Rob McElhenney) routinely get lost on Sunny-esque tangents and reveal the aspect of their characters that they see in themselves. Coffee eggs, surprise Kaitlin Olson appearances and parking debates all make the show feel right at home among the “Always Sunny” canon. If you want to get into the show, but can’t stream it for whatever reason, try an episode of the podcast. – Leo Witzke
