A2 Questionnaire: Colleen Crawley


(Same 6 Questions, Different Victim)

Colleen Crawley, Project Designer for Motawi Tileworks

Colleen, what’s your favorite dish to cook?
Pasta with grilled vegetables – it’s delicious, easy to make and everybody loves it!

It’s Friday night and you’re exhausted – what do you do for dinner?
If my teenage daughter is home, we often grab a pie from NYPD – our favorite pizza in town. But Jerusalem Garden is usually the first choice if it’s just my husband and I.

It’s Saturday night and you’re ready to go out and have a great time – what do you do?
We might start with dinner downtown – maybe Shalimar in the cold weather or Prickly Pear’s courtyard in the summer. While we’re waiting for a table, we’ll stroll into the shops and galleries on Main Street, especially Four Directions and Selo Shevel. Afterwards we’ll either go hear some music or catch a flick at the Michigan Theater. Of course it it’s early summer, we’re probably heading to Top of the Park.

What’s your favorite restaurant (besides Zingerman’s!) to take out-of-town guests?
Often we head to Seva, but we’ve also had great luck with Quarter Bistro.

What do you love about Ann Arbor that you think is unique among other cities?
The quality of life! Not just hospital and school options, great restaurants, groceries, coffee shops, amazing parks, bike trails, low crime, cleanliness, etc. But also the fact that we live less than a mile from downtown (an easy walk) but we’re off a dirt road, surrounded by vegetation and wildlife – now that’s unique!

Last question – if you were to write a Blues song about living in Ann Arbor, what would the title be?
“(I Got) The Birkenstock Blues”
