One Trick Pony Will Be Your Next Hangout

One Trick Pony Grill & Taproom

One Trick Pony will be your next go to hot spot for eating out. Located at the heart of downtown Grand Rapids on 136 E. Fulton. They feature local artists from the Michigan area to come play music every Thursday from 8 pm.-11p.m. The restaurant is the known for being the oldest commercial building in Grand Rapids first seen in the 1800's. The restaurant originally housed Oliver Bleak's General Store which was built in 1856. This was during the time that Grand Rapids itself was only about 6 years old and had a population of about 4,000 people. Flash forward to now over 200,000 people that is quite a growth spurt.

One Trick Pony gets its iconic name from the beloved circus pony that would often be made fun of for doing one thing. But the philosophy is still the same. It is better to do something well than try to master everything. One Trick Pony leverages their "trick" as fine dining experience combined with delicious food.

Whether a budding college student or a full fledged professional One Trick will have something for you. Their menu features a great selection of appetizers: Coconut Shrimp & Pan Seared Brussels to differing lunch items such as brick oven pizza and salads. Their dinners include pastas and entrees such as New York Strip. Their decadent desserts such as Red Velvet Cake Roll and Peanut Butter Silk Pie will leave you breathless. If you are a parent they also have a great kids menu featuring items such as chicken tenders, popcorn shrimp, and PB & J. Their brunch menu on Sundays change every week so make sure to check their website for their updated menu.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
