As much as I enjoy warm, comforting soups and stews and casseroles that fill the fall and winter months, the arrival of summer brings my favorite food season. Every summer I reiterate that Summer Food Is the Best Food, and it is! Fresh, vibrant fruits and veggies, and succulent, smoky grilled foods. It really does … Continue reading

Within the past month, I’ve dined at Zingerman’s Roadhouse not once, but twice. In fact, these were my very first two visits to the establishment. I have, of course, visited several of Zingerman’s other local endeavors, including: Zingerman’s Deli Zingerman’s Coffee Company Zingerman’s Creamery (here and here) (I say "of course," because Zingerman’s is to … Continue reading
As is expected of any true Michigander, I headed Upnorth for the Fourth this past week. I loved that the holiday was on a Friday this year! The huz and I also took vacation days from work on Thursday to make our weekend even longer. En route from Ann Arbor to Northern Michigan, we stopped … Continue reading
My first visit to Zola Bistro occurred this weekend. Fueling up before an afternoon of errands on Washtenaw Ave, Zola Bistro in the new Arbor Hills complex seemed like a perfect Saturday brunch choice.

The Songbird Café has resided in the Plymouth Road Mall plaza … Continue reading

I have a few big posts up my sleeves, so hope you’ll stay tuned. In the meantime, I thought I’d pop in the share the breakfast I enjoyed at … Continue reading
This week, when Dimo’s posted a link to my blog post about their sandwiches on their Facebook wall, it reminded the huz and that while we have returned for sandwiches on more than one occasion, we still haven’t tried Dimo’s breakfast! [source] This morning, we made it in to Dimo’s for brunch! They were quite … Continue reading
A few things from the last week. I am typing this post as I sip a nice, hot mug of strongly brewed coffee, delivered to me from my mother-in-law Deb, straight from Taiwan! Gooood stuff. Have I ever mentioned my coffeemaker on here before? I know I’ve mentioned my Bodum French Press and Cuisinart coffee … Continue reading
This Sunday, we had brunch at Tower Inn Café in Ypsi. The original plan was to redeem a pair of brunch vouchers that I had purchased on Real Deal a while ago. However, Sunday morning before we left, I realized they were expired! Bummer. But, we were both craving brunch, so we decided to give … Continue reading
