We’ve all heard the whispers and gossip about Detroit: the
drugs, the crime, and the riots. When one says they’re from Detroit to
non-Michiganders, you’ll receive the most pitiful or fearful look. But you may
have also heard about the up and coming of Detroit. Every city has their own
problems, Detroit is just one of the cities that are recognized by more bad
than good but without the bad there would be no such thing as good. Honestly, I
wasn’t sure about the idea of staying local but I’m really thankful we did. Not
only did the bond between us all get stronger, but we also built new relationships
with the people we came here to help in the first place, otherwise known as
Adrienne and Gloria. Today, we all had the luxury of not making dinner at all
today. For breakfast, Tim and Ron came to our temporary home to make us these
spectacular omelets in bags. A side note, this project would not have been
possible to complete without their help this week. As for dinner, Adrienne and
Gloria made us a creamy chicken alfredo pasta. It was very heartwarming to see
how grateful they were for the work we’ve put into their homes. It felt really
valuable to see the difference and change we’re making in our city.
