Love eating local at Little Ghost in Ferndale, MI—but tonight was even more special with their special November ‘Twerky Turkey’ burger! A handwich with Thanksgiving in every bite.

Both my sons learned to read with Bone & Mouseguard. Thankful to their teachers for having them in their classrooms, and to the creators for making them. You had a huge impact on their lives.
