A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: December 2009
http://amichigandergrowsinbrooklyn.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Monday, December 28, 2009. I am a pretty organized individual. I put things away. (Well, once I get unpacked, I put things away.) But today a couple of things threw me for a loop. First, I need to do laundry. I am lucky, blessed, thrilled, etc. that there is a laundry room in the basement of my building. No more walking six blocks to Atlantis 24 hour wash and fold! On my way out the office this evening I discover the check is gone! I decided to wait until tomorrow. So we ...

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: October 2009
http://amichigandergrowsinbrooklyn.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Monday, October 26, 2009. So there is so much going on in my life right now, but especially things going on inside me. But I don't have time for an in depth, heart-felt post, so I'm writing about mustard. Yes, mustard. Seems like New Yorkers don't do mustard. It's available at restaurants, for sure, but there isn't a McDonald's or a fast food place that seems to use it or carry it! I really detest ketchup. Thursday, October 8, 2009. Thursday, October 1, 2009. It was then ...

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: May 2011

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Monday, May 16, 2011. I haven't blogged in about 9 months, and I must say, I miss it. Writing (even an informal blog) helps me to process things and put ideas into perspective. I think one of the biggest drawbacks to being single and living alone is that there isn't someone always around to talk about the day-to-day things- no one to bounce things off of. I think that blogging helps to fill this need. However, I feel that A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Subscribe to: Pos...

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: March 2010

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Saturday, March 20, 2010. Ahhh, a perfect Saturday. Started out the day at my friend's Michelle's house (and by house I mean her lovely apartment in Murray Hill) where I spent the night. Friday night I went there for dinner and games with three other friends. Had a blast. And Saturday morning I spent waking up to a welcoming cup of coffee and a smiling three year old who asked if I wanted to watch the movie Cars. With her. Of course I did! Last fall it was Madagascar.

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: July 2009

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Sunday, July 19, 2009. Tonight as I was walking to the train on my way home from church, I stopped for a bit at Stuyvesant Park to think. I am feeling pretty disconnected and thought I could clear my head. And to my delight, the park was filled with fireflies! I haven't seen fireflies in ages. I remember seeing them as a girl camping (just ask any of my cousins or siblings about my mom worrying they'd burn a hole in her new tent! Saturday, July 18, 2009. I decided sometim...

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Saturday, January 30, 2010. Wine and Cheese and Laughter. Two weeks ago I had what was probably the most fun night out I have had since moving to New York! It was my first home wine tasting party. Hosted by Dave and Michelle. Of course, Michael Jackson was there too. (And by Michael Jackson, I mean their incredibly smart three year old daughter who pretends to be MJ. Dancing, singing, costume changes, the works. Adorable! Why with a Talent Show, of course! I realize that ...

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Wednesday, November 4, 2009. Well, I don't live in Brooklyn anymore. (I don't exactly live anywhere right now, but that's an entirely different story! I was thinking how my name 'A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn' no longer fits my situation. But I don't think I'll change it. Living My Backward's Life (formerly A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn).

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn: June 2009

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Sunday, June 21, 2009. Six Seconds of Fame. My friends and I made it to the video. We're at 2:08 square dancing and 2:30 napping. So, I wonder, will I continue to get my 15 minutes of fame in 6 second increments? Sorry, I still can't figure out how to post links! Living My Backward's Life (formerly A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn). Thursday, June 18, 2009. Tonight on the train home, I had the most beautiful experience. And seeing as I was on the L, that's saying a lot!

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. They keep extending my 'contract' at TFS. I am now probably working until the end of April (if I can get Trader Joe's to agree.) I am really happy to oblige them, and not just because I'm getting paid. (Although, I wouldn't be working two jobs, and working every day without any days off if I wasn't making some extra dough.). And I love the people there. It's a good organization. Living My Backward's Life (formerly A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn).

A Michigander Grows in Brooklyn. Friday, May 28, 2010. Of all the things I have struggled with since moving to New York, loneliness is at the top of the list. It's funny how I can live in such a busy city, constantly surrounded by people, and yet be lonely. So I have put finding friends at the top of my prayer list. (A man would be nice as well, but really friends are what I miss the most.). Many years since high school! So I showed them Bryant Park and we had a cocktail at the bar in the park. And B...
