The Cupcake Station has opened up in downtown Plymouth. According to its website, it is the third southeastern Michigan location for this franchise.

Finally Plymouth’s beloved Burger Spot has re-opened. It was closed for months for “remodeling” but there was actually a change in ownership. The remodeling did occur and the place looks quite nice, but the temporary closure was more than about just aesthetics. A few of the things that made the Burger Spot great remain unchanged. [...]

I apologize ahead of time for this post being more personal and less about the Plymouth community more broadly. I can’t help myself though, I’m so pumped. Our family and friends, including a number of folks from here in town, will be gathering at the Knights of Columbus Hall (K of C #3292) on Lilley [...]

Fall Festival is great but…

I, personally, could do without the carnival and rides. I understand that the midway hauls in a lot of money for the City, so it has some value. But as entertainment, it’s a bit overwhelming. It is certainly not a good value for people with children. The more exciting rides cost about $4.00 per ride. [...]
My new favorite dessert

I’m not claiming this is the best dessert that can be bought here in town. I’m just saying it’s my favorite at the moment. Dairy-Go-Round offers “Muds,” which are basically what are known as “Flurries” at other ice cream stores. My favorite Mud is “Chocolate & Cherry.” It’s got chunks of cherries mixed with cherry [...]

Now you’ll have no excuse for skipping your veggies. Coming soon to our town, on the southwest corner of Main Street and Wing, is Suburban Harvest, a purveyor of “organic and locally grown produce.” Check out the website. http://www.suburban-harvest.com/ This has been a long time coming. With the coming of the meat/dairy/bread store on Forest [...]
