On Saturday we went to the Detroit Eastern Market with the McNerneys and Lows (it was Marcela's idea). Seriously, the market was fabulous! When we first arrived, I told Marcela "I hate these kinds of things. There are way too many people." Then within minutes I was buying grapes for 50 cents a pound and 8 kiwis/$1 and LIFE COULDN'T HAVE BEEN BETTER!!! "Devin!!! Check out these prices!! I need more cash!!" We got cinnamon creamed honey, green grapes, red grapes, grape tomatoes, regular tomatoes, broccoli, peppers, strawberries, cherries...you name it, I BOUGHT IT!!! "Marcela, I take that back. I LOVE these kinds of things. Let's come every Saturday!"
The intensity never ends people. It never ends ;)
After the Eastern Market, we decided to go to Belle Isle (as you can see from the picture above, we were clearly the minority). I didn't mind that one bit. I absolutely LOVE African American people and their culture. I especially love the friends I made in school and during my grad assistantship. I admire their confidence, energy, and STYLE (not to mention dance moves!!!).
Looks like we picked a really good place to picnic.
Jade was BOILING, but did NOT want to leave!

How Many Limes for a $1?
Now you too have felt the passion!!!
Turn 2 Red Type personalities loose under these conditions, anywhere in the world, and you are bound to get the same results.
Seriously
