Wilcox House gets a face lift

Perhaps more accurately she has gotten a botox injection or a little nip and tuck. If you’ve been downtown in the last few weeks, you’ve probably seen some work — mostly cosmetic seemingly — being down on Wilcox House.
There’s a fresh coat of white paint on the siding and trim. The porch has been repainted [...]

This Saturday our family went to its first Maple Street Block Party. It was held on Harding Street right in front of Fairground Park. We all had a great time. I had a sight more beer than my $5.00 donation could have covered and it was pretty darn good stuff.
All of us got to meet [...]

As some of you will know, the Plymouth Jaycees chapter was closed recently. Since it no longer exists, it could not sponsor or local park (Joy and Harding Streets.)

I’m headed on vacation for a few days and did not have much inspiration to post something new or original before leaving. But I did stumble across a few cool webpages about Plymouth and her history.
“Catherine’s Hometown: Plymouth, Michigan” has a few nice blurbs about the city and its history. “It’s A Daisy!” an article [...]

I’m a guy that really likes spicy food. Most places don’t serve food as hot as I like it, even places that claim to have “extra hot” dishes. I’ve met my match, though, with Little Bangkok Cuisine, 545 Forest Ave., downtown.
I made the mistake, the first time I ate there, of asking for my dish [...]
What Plymouth needs: a middle eastern restaurant
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Al Shallal, Al Sultan, middle eastern food, Pineland, restaurant on August 2, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I love middle eastern food: hummous; kibbee; fattoush; lentil soup. Delicious! But I have to drive all the way into Dearborn Heights to find a restaurant that serves good middle eastern food. There is a newer place in Canton, but it’s not as good as the places I like (Al Sultan, Al Shallal, Pineland.)
I wish [...]
