Where I'm From ~ Open Media ~ Due July 12 (Mail by June 12)

I was born in Michigan and spent my childhood there. Michigan holds all my most cherished family memories.

Pasties-these are a Michigan staple. They come from the upper peninsula. The miners would eat them at their lunch time. My grandma taught me how to make them.

Bronners-this store is located in Frankenmuth Michigan. It is the Worlds Largest Christmas store. Open 361 days of the year. We would take a family trip there every year and have a feast at the Bavarian restaurant.

Motown-Detroit is know for Motown music. I grew up listening to it with my parents and grandparents.

Mitten State- Michigan is know as the mitten state for obvious reasons. To this day I hold up my hand and point to different cities. That was how we were taught in school. It's always a great laugh with new people.

Great cards and I love to hear the background! I knew about Motown - that has reached even us in Sweden. The other things were new to me 😊 The hand thing is smart, very pedagogic!
 
gave my cards to mail team today :)

Chimarrao - typical herbal drink in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, part of gaucho traditions..

The sunset building is Usina do Gasometro

And the curved shape building is an government building that recently RedBull adapted for a professional skater to go down (fullfilling the dream of every one in the city)
