@ Abby… just re-read this one. And the mouse… maybe God didn’t let you almost step on a dead mouse, maybe he prevented you from stepping on a dead mouse… you were about to step on it and somehow were warned/became aware.
Just saying.

I found it funny that the ‘deluge’ was a positive..

That was 2008… there could be more or they may have gone out of business.
Its not Indian, but there are a couple of Chinese places in Owosso (just south of Chesaning). One was a buffet I believe and the other was a sit down (may have also had buffet, I don’t remember. The one time I was there, my niece wanted to eat with “karate chops”)

I just had some good Indian food last week. Each Spring the Business School’s Indian Student organization has a short festival.. singing, dancing in traditional Indian garb (silky, bright). One of friends last year sang and danced and had lunch with me. Then, she graduated and is a prof in India now. Anyway, I heard the show from my office and went down for some lunch. Being here (columbus, Ohio state) I have learned not to wonder too much about what I am eating… if it tastes good, that’s enough for me.
One of my office mates was having some dumplings for lunch. I asked him what was in them… “meat, um, I don’t know. It smells funny but tastes good”
I have to agree I could make that comment about some of the foods I have tried in the last 3 years.

Anyway, in Chesaning you can see how those of us who grew up there may have faced a limited culinary experience. Not that Broasted Malt Shop Chicken and Packy’s Pizza slices (now out of business) aren’t fine, just limited.

Abby, you know, the blog idea isn’t half bad. You’ve given me something to think about.

Tony, thanks for the heads up on the Kabob ‘n Curry House. It sounds like a tricky equation, balancing the 45 minute drive home from the curry filled feast and the probable, subsequent “deluge of relief” that the reviewer raved about. I am concerned, but not deterred. I do like my kabobs and curry.

@ Abby and Courtney
I found that there is an Indian Restaurant in Saginaw.
Kabob N Curry House. There were even 2 reviews
One fellow had been on the Atkins diet and volume of cheese had caused some…issues. So, he ‘hopped off’ the Atkins, went to Kabob N Curry and, after their spicy food, had a ‘deluge of relief’. (ALL HIS WORDS)

Another reviewer did say she is happy with the food, that they make great Samosas, etc…

The fellow was a 2008 review, the woman a 2007.

@Courtney I hope you start a blog when you and your boyfriend set out on your Chesaning adventure because it would be really funny. I’m still giggling at “Where does one get Indian food?” hahahaha There isn’t even a Chinese restaurant in Chesaning, but Saginaw is only 45 minutes away. They might even have Indian food there by now.

Thanks for the comment!

Hi, I’ve never left you a comment before. I found your blog while googling “Chesaning” and found you, as in “You’ve never heard of Chesaning?”. As a matter of fact I had not heard of Chesaning until my boyfriend, born and raised in the city of Detroit bought what he charmingly refers to a “farm” out there. It’s not a farm really, just a house in the county, but why split hairs? Possibly someday I will live in Chesaning, but I am scared. Where will I work? Where does one get Indian food?

Anyway, I enjoy your blog and your thoughtful words on Dr. Tiller very much. Thank you for writing it.

Best,
Courtney

What the hell is creeking? And I agree with Tony!

I think it is a question of faith or church. Where was Jesus a Pastor? How big was his cathedral (or church, whatever you want to call the building). Did he beg for donations? Or did he just preach to whomever wanted to listen? He put the message out there…didn’t need to be the leader of a big ole church

And, if anyone rolls their eyes or if you have to explain “I’m not that kind of Christian… etc” then 1–that person is sure succumbing to the same bullshit they are trying to foist on you. Prejudiced much? 2–And you can’t point to what this guy did or other Christians doing wrong… so, is this guy the definition of Christian?

So… believe what you choose and do not feel that you need to explain yourself. You live in the spirit of Jesus more than many I know; inclusivity (is that a word), fairness, etc. Don’t religions or religious (or anti-religious) zealots define your belief for you. You are strong enough I am sure to do this, but everyone needs some support once in awhile. We all get tired sometimes.

But gosh, aren’t you looking forward to the news of the octo-mom reality show? Because if anything causes a dip in my faith it is the exploitation of our children. I have King Arthur no-bakes here along with cake pops dipped in chocolate if you are up for a road trip!

I hope you’re creeking now (the sun is out). I’m tired of devastating news — I’m ready for good news where people love each other and are kind to each other.
