Happy Friday!
Yesterday was MD Bagel Fragel's last day at its Plymouth Road location. The owners said customers lined up starting at 5 a.m. and they sold out in a little over four hours. If these past two months have taught me anything, it's that Ann Arborites show up for each other.

Each time I've been to MD Bagel Fragel since their closure was announced, customers have been lined up to the door and overflowing the tip cups, and yesterday was no exception.
Hopefully this new year will bring some good news for the beloved family-owned shop.
Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas,
