We are so fortunate to have Indigenous leaders like Eva Petoskey here in northern Michigan who are generously sharing their wisdom at a time wisdom is so needed. Let’s listen, on purpose.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day, and chi Miigwetch to Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians elders Elsie Dudley and Sandra Waukazoo for the privilege of having dinner with you at the September tribal barbecue. Some of the most delicious food I’ve ever had and even better company.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! It is a continued honor to partner with the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians, the first peoples and water protectors of our beautiful north.

I love my neighborhood burger joint. ♥️Saturday morning, October 10th from 8am-10am, we are starting something simple — and maybe something we all need.
Coming to the Table is a free community breakfast moment built around one idea: slowing down long enough to sit with other people and share a meal.
No catch.
Just breakfast, conversation, and connection — made possible through you, the Community, and all the times you have paid forward a meal while ordering at our counter.
Our first free breakfast features The Table, a new Oakwood breakfast sandwich made just for this event.
Let's take a moment to put down the phones and talk to each other. The table has always been a place to come together - so let's remember how that feels in our own neighborhood.
It’s not about solving problems — just reconnecting with neighbors, friends, coworkers, and strangers who might otherwise pass by.
The Table breakfast sandwich is free, because of your Community.
Conversation is the point.
Come to the table this Saturday. Our free breakfast sandwich and free coffee will be stationed outside.
**Our regular full menu is available inside at regular price**

If you're one of the thousands of Michiganders still waiting on delayed 2025 tax refunds, you can contact my office for assistance. Dozens of community members have already reached out to report delays, and my team and I have been in touch with the Michigan Department of Treasury to request updates, identify tax filing and processing issues and resolve individual cases.
The Treasury encourages taxpayers to continue monitoring their refund status through eServices and to review its Tax Year 2025 Return Processing Updates, which outline the filing season’s progress, common reasons some returns take longer to process and important guidance for taxpayers checking their refund status. More information can also be found on the Tax Year 2025 Information page. I have linked the resources in the comments.

I can’t say enough great things about the wonderful, kind,  professional staff at Cherryland Humane Society! Some of you may know I recently lost my sweet pup Pax who had been with me for 10 years after we rescued him in December 2016. I know Pax would want me to bring home one of his furry siblings and that he would want me to rescue. I got to visit some of the awesome dogs currently at Cherryland and ultimately this beautiful boy and I were the perfect match. He’s settled into his new home now, and a new name, Loki. I can report he’s an awesome hiking buddy and quite the snuggle bug.
Thank you to the team at Cherryland, every part of the experience made it clear that you prioritize the well-being and best possible future for the animals in your care. This rescue mom says thanks. ♥️🐾HOORAY Rexaroni! You found the best dog mom a pup could ask for with Betsy Coffia! 🤩🏡❤️
She chose to adopt over shop and we are so grateful she did. (And so is Rexaroni!)🐾🥹 Happy gotcha day!
