Are there tornadoes in Ann Arbor Michigan?

David Mueller — Mon, 18 Jan 2010 00:54:12 +0000

I am moving to Ann Arbor this year and am interested in buying a module/manufactured home. Someone mentioned that this may be a bad idea because I will need a basement if there are tornadoes? True or False? Is this something that is common?

Skittles is right… That’s one of the great things about Michigan – we don’t really have to put up with weather phenomenons. I remember a spate of tornadoes going through 10-15 years ago, and there’s been the occasional sighting since. Severe thunderstorms are much more common than tornadoes, but even those aren’t too frequent. We get our share of high winds and blizzards, too, but those are also infrequent in the lower half of the Lower Peninsula. Weather-wise, Michigan is a great place to be.

As for having a basement: I’d think you’d be fine. There are many traditionally constructed houses without basements spread around the state. Better safe than sorry – No matter what state you’re in, you should be aware of the weather and make sure you tune into the forecast if it looks iffy outside (such as an oddly green sky). If a tornado does happen, you can go into a closet.

Does anyone have a good recipe for butternut squash enchiladas, like the dish from Seva in Ann Arbor?

David Mueller — Wed, 06 Jan 2010 17:41:15 +0000

I love the Butternut Squash Enchilada’s from Seva restaurant in Ann Arbor. I am trying to recreate them at home. Please send me recipes! Thanks.

I found 2 recipes…I am gonna have to try these!

Butternut Squash Enchiladas with Salsa Verde – Makes 8 servings.
1 package (16 oz.) diced peeled butternut squash, or 1 1/4 lb. squash, seeded, peeled and diced
Canola oil spray
1 can (15.5 oz.) pinto beans, rinsed and drained
3/4 cup (3 oz.) crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese, divided
8 large (about 7-inch) corn tortillas
1 jar (16 oz.) salsa verde
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish (optional)
Place squash in medium saucepan. Add 1 cup water. Cover pot tightly, and place over medium-high heat. Cook until squash is tender but not mushy, 12-15 minutes, depending on size of cubes. Drain squash, and set aside.

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Select a baking dish just large enough to hold the eight tortillas, folded over and slightly overlapping, so that they fit snuggly in the dish. (You may want to “test” and see if the baking dish is the proper size by arranging unfilled, folded tortillas in it, as they would be once filled and ready to bake.) using the canola oil spray, lightly coat the interior of the baking dish and set aside.
Place beans in mixing bowl. Using fork, partially mash beans. Add squash and blend, leaving mixture coarsely mashed, with some beans still whole. Mix in 1/2 cup of the cheese. Season filling to taste with salt and pepper.
Coat a tortilla on both sides with cooking spray. Lay it on a plate. Spoon 3/4 cup of filling on one half of the tortilla. Fold tortilla in half over filling. Set it at one end of the baking dish. Repeat, placing filled tortillas so they overlap, filling baking dish tightly. Pour puréed sauce over assembled enchiladas. Sprinkle remaining cheese over sauce. Cover pan with foil.
Bake enchiladas about 30 minutes, until they are heated through and tortillas are soft. Uncover and serve garnished with cilantro, accompanied by cooked brown rice, if desired.

Butternut Squash Enchiladas
Squash Filling
1 med butternut or acorn squash (2 lb)
1 tbl olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup yellow onion, diced
1/2 cup fresh corn, uncooked (frozen, ok)
3 cups monterey jack cheese, grated
1 doz corn tortillas
1/3 cup vegtable oil

To Prepare the Squash Filling
Preheat oven to 400°. Cut squash in half lengthwise and clean out seeds Place in small baking dish cut side up in one half inch of water and cook until soft (40-50 minutes). Let cool and spoon out meat. Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic, onions, and sauté 2-3 minutes until translucent. Mix in squash and corn and set aside.

To Assemble the Enchiladas
Heat vegetable oil over high heat and fry tortillas individually until soft. Pat dry with a paper towel. Grate cheeses. Place a spoon or two of squash mixture on a tortilla along with some cheese, roll up and place into a 9×13 baking dish. Repeat, placing enchiladas side by side, until baking dish is full. Top enchiladas with sauce and a little cheese and bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes.

what was the name of a unwed mothers home in Ann arbor, Mi in the year 1967?

David Mueller — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 07:34:20 +0000

looking for niece that was adopted from an unwed mothers home in Ann Arbor , MI. Date of birth 2/18/1967

I know there was a Florence Crittenton Maternity home & hospital, and also a Booth Hospital (Salvation Army did a lot of adoptions then) Also, there may have been a Catholic Charities Agency there. You can contact the Ann Arbor diocese to get information about that.

Here is a link to hospitals that may be helpful. They may know which maternity homes & agencies were common then. I know one of our first Moms here on YA is from Michigan, she may be of more help.

I need a job!!! HELP PLEASE. Ann Arbor jobs? internet / work at home jobs? any IDEAS? I NEED MONEY……?

David Mueller — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 19:43:21 +0000

I need a job soo bad but cant find one. I just got married and wife had a baby, now I really need a job. I do not have a college degree. I live in the ann arbor, Does anyone know of anything in or around this area that is hiring?
What about those work at home jobs??? are they all scams, or can I make some money off of any of them?
Any ideas would definately help.

I find it hard to believe that with a city the size of Ann Arbor, NO ONE is hiring. That means that you are either not looking in the right direction, or your expectations are too high. Get a job at a fast food joint until you find something better. Or go to the mall. I know Meijer’s is always hiring. They’re just like Walmart, who oddly enough, is always hiring also. I’m sure with the number of restaurants there, someone is hiring, as well as Briarwood mall. That mall is huge, so there’s got to be stores in there that are hiring. Open your eyes and start looking.

As far as the home jobs goes, most are scams but there are honest ones out there, you just need to do your research for them.

Im looking for nursing homes within the ann arbor or yisplanti area I dont want to travel too far.?

David Mueller — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 07:25:30 +0000

………………….

Check through the University Hospital. They have a gerontology center which could direct you to different facilities.

Is it wise to buy a home in Ann Arbor now?

David Mueller — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 03:41:43 +0000

We want to move out of Michigan in four years for sure.

I think it is. Ann Arbor is a great market and with the University there, demand will always be high. That city is much different than other markets in the state. I would bet that bargainhunters could do well there. Looks like a real smart investment area with big returns.
