Urbandale: Where business is blooming and helping one another is the way the neighborhood grows - south west michigan

Battle Creek but never expected to return after leaving for college and her ensuing several year as a resident of Grand Blanc.“We lived in Bedford for a bit and Athens,” says Elisha Hodge, owner of Plumeria Botanical Boutique. “I didn’t have a great high school experience and I never thought I would come back.”Hodge graduated from Central Michigan University and took a job in banking and later in financial advising. She had a good job, a dog, and a home in Grand Blanc, but realized she wasn’t happy with what she was doing.“I had this heart and this spirit, but the world kind of steps on you at times and I learned to be quiet,” Hodge says. A telephone call to her mother in Battle Creek set her life on a course she never expected to follow.“I was calling my mother and she said you should come home,” Hodge says. “My mom, my two sisters, their two families, and the rest of my family lives in Battle Creek. I don’t have a relative outside of Battle Creek. For years they were asking me to come back.”Hodge’s mother, Sandy, had worked for more than 30 years at the Country Bouquet Flower Shop located on West Michigan Avenue in Urbandale. The owner of the flower shop was planning to sell the business and at her mother’s urging, Elisha decided to throw caution to the wind. She put her house in Grand Blanc on the market.“My mom said I could take my banking background and her florist background and we could buy this business,” Hodge says. “When she mentioned it, I don’t know if any of us thought she was serious.”However, when Hodge’s Grand Blanc home sold in two weeks, she took it as a sign and moved back in June 2015 to embark on a new career as a business owner... http://www.secondwavemedia.com/southwest-michigan/features/Urbandale-Where-business-is-blooming-and-helping-one-another-is-the-way-neighborhood-grows1213.aspx

UPDATE: Local flower shop owner speaks out after robbery, one arrested - WVNS-TV

W. Va (WVNS) -- A man is in jail and another is on the run after the two came up with an elaborate plan to rob a local flower shop. The robbery happened last week at Colonial florist along Athens road in Princeton. Wesley Brown, the owner, said he feels lucky to be alive.  "I'm scared to death if I see somebody walk in front my shop," Brown said.  Brown said last week a man wearing a grey hoodie walked into his shop, knocked him to the ground, and stole his wallet that was full of cash and credit cards. "Took my wallet, keys to my car and I had $1,000 in my bill fold I collected over thanksgiving weekend and $95 dollars in my pocket," Brown said. But the man in the grey hoodie wasn't alone.  While the robbery was taking place, another man was in the store. Eric Long was working in the flower shop for Brown in exchange for "flowers for a funeral." Little did Brown know, it was all part of a bigger plan. Brown told 59 News the men attacked him with a medal vase before running off together. Long was arrested on Tuesday but his accomplice is still on the run."He needs to be put away because if he done me that way, he will do somebody else.

Texas Florist Who Admitted to Being in Pelosi’s Office Wants Case Moved from D.C. Because of ‘Cancel Culture’ - Law & Crime

Washington, D.C. because of “cancel culture.” The defense for Texas florist Jenny Louise Cudd, who was on video happily admitting to being in the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asserted authorities were creating the “illusion” of a conspiracy between her and Eliel Rosa by linking their cases.“According to the Government’s Statement of Facts, the two were seen on security footage walking into the building, walking around, and walking out,” attorney Marina Medvin said in a filing Wednesday. “There is no evidence of communications or a plan between the two to enter the Capitol. Instead, the evidence is purported to be that they were at the same place, at the same time, followed a crowd into the open doors of the Capitol building, then walked out. They didn’t take anything, they didn’t break anything.”Cudd was among rioters raiding the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6, after then-President Donald Trump continued to lie that he actually won the 2020 presidential election. The invaders postponed but did not prevent Congress for counting electoral college votes weighing in favor of the real winner, Preside... https://lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-siege/texas-florist-who-admitted-to-being-in-pelosis-office-wants-case-moved-from-d-c-because-of-cancel-culture/

How to Get Married During a Pandemic? With Tents, Masks and Fewer Guests - The Two River Times

There’s no way I can do it by myself,” Malloy said, noting that both her job and her husband’s job are stressful. Matt is a tugboat captain who was then working three weeks on, three weeks off in Texas.The Malloys were able to use their original photographer, DJ and florist, but Deo had to procure a tent, caterer, tables, seating and more. They used Brennan’s Delicatessen in Rumson for the food and Bay Ave. Bakery in Highlands for the cake. In the end they spent more than their original budget for the wedding which Deo said is not unusual for a tent wedding.“Don’t be surprised if your budget is going to be a little bit more, or equal to where you were with your venue,” she said, which always catches people off-guard. “You are no longer in a venue with a roof over your head, with air conditioning and heat and tables and chairs and staff and everything else. You are now in the middle of a backyard or farm… and we’re bringing in every single fork, every chair, every plate, every light, every everything, and you’re building this atmosphere or this vibe out of nothing.”“To create that wedding atmosphere and everything that goes into it is a lot of money,” Deo said.The Malloys invited about 185 guests to the October wedding and ended up with about 120, a hundred fewer than their... https://tworivertimes.com/how-to-get-married-during-a-pandemic-with-tents-masks-and-fewer-guests/
