Jeff Daniels is bringing another new business to Chelsea! 🍽️🎶

JD’s Stage Bistro is underway — a full restaurant + live music venue — right on Main Street, just steps from the Purple Rose Theatre. Think: wood-fired pizza, a craft cocktail bar, patio seating, private event space, and a stage built for well-known singer songwriters.

Right now, they’re aiming to open sometime in Spring 2026!

If “dreamy kitchen” and “giant primary suite” had a baby… it would be this North Oaks condo in Ann Arbor. 😍

Over 3,500 sq ft of gorgeous living space, plus a fully finished basement (featuring a swing) — which is obviously the most important feature according to my 4-year-old. 😂

📍 3090 N Spurway Dr | Ann Arbor
💰 $699,000 | 3 bed | 3.5 bath | Built in 2020
✨ Clubhouse w/ fitness center + pool | Zero yard work | Turnkey + gorgeous

If you know someone who’s thinking about moving to Dexter, here’s what I’d tell them…

It’s got a small-town feel — but in the best way.

Think: a cute little downtown with a gazebo in the center — the unspoken spot where locals eat ice cream and let the kids run around. Free live music on Friday nights in the summer. Ice skating in the winter. The kind of place that still feels like it has a community.

Nightlife? Not so much. But what it does have is so much better — local small businesses instead of corporate chains. I’m talking boutiques, a bakery, a brewery, a bookstore, bars, diners, coffee shops, a cider mill, a fresh pasta shop, a flower shop — and a whole lot more.

Add in the amazing B2B trails, beautiful parks, highly rated schools, and tons of great community events — and it’s easy to see why people fall in love with this place.

And when you want a change of pace? Ann Arbor’s just a short drive away, and DTW isn’t far either. ✈️

So if you’re seriously considering this area for your next move, DM or comment “Dexter” and I’ll share my complete guide to Dexter — with all the pros, cons, and everything I’d want to know if I were making the move myself.

Still in their “soft opening” phase, but Fueld is OPEN for business! 🥗980 W. Eisenhower Pkwy.

Lots of salads to choose from along with lots of Asian-inspired stir fry options + the option to build your own dish! Healthy & fast-casual vibe. I’m excited to try it!

What about you? Are you going to give them a try??

If you've been wondering what would replace The Fillmore in Dexter, the news is finally in! 👀

What you need to know:
✅ Will now be called 42 North Social House
✅ Menu will lean toward seafood, but they plan to have a wide variety of options and daily specials
✅ Chef is John Fischer (experience from restaurants like the Common Grill & Gratzi)
✅ Hope to open by August, but too early to say
✅ Plan to renovate interior, so timing will depend on permits

That's the short of it paraphrased from today's article in the Sun Times News, but you can read the full deets there!

So... what do you think?? What were you hoping for in this location?

I'm not huge on seafood, but I'm excited to see their menu and have another restaurant option come to the table 👩‍🍳
