It has been a very busy year! I had the honor of working for the largest historic public market in the US. The food justice work being done here is amazing, and I was lucky enough to be chosen to design a new market concept to extend the economic development work of the market to non-food entrepreneurs. Through those efforts, we’re also striving to increase the demand (and supply) for locally produced goods in Detroit.
At the same time, I was honored to participate in the Detroit Revitalization Fellows Program out of Wayne State University, increasing cooperation between organizations seeking to do good in Detroit. It is an amazing program, and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.
And on top of those, I continued my role as a Marine Corps judge advocate in a reserve capacity.
Oh, and I had a baby while I was doing all that.
And MacGyver and I were asked to be in the “Michigan’s Sexiest Vegetarians” Calendar. MacGyver was on the news this morning for their Meatless Monday feature. Alas, I had to work…
(I’d like to note that I was 7 months pregnant when we did this shoot)
So, yeah, busy year.
It is my hope that in the coming year, I will be able to devote a decent amount of time and energy to this little blog.
Of course, I still have all those jobs listed above…
And a newborn…
Oh, and did I mention I’m also an adjunct law professor now?
So lots of time to devote to this blog…
We’ll see. If you see a post from me in January, that will be a good sign!
Happy Holidays, All!
I’m so excited to see a post from you! You’ve been up to such amazing things and it’s just so good to “hear” from you. I’ve missed reading your posts. I’m so envious that you look so glorious pregnant, (instead of how I felt which was just wanting to die every day for 9 months.) I hope you do find time to write because I love hearing about all the incredible things you’ve been up to.
