Breakfast: Regardless of the weather outside, inside The Bread Gal you’ll discover an intimate neighborhood bakery with breads, pastries, and quiche to start your day deliciously. Or, step into dawn of a new day coffee house for a cup of organic, fair-trade coffee and a breakfast sandwich.

Mid-Morning: Have yourself a shopping & sampling extravaganza at SVRC Marketplace, an indoor, European-style market with a smattering of assorted eateries and retail shops. Or relax on the velvet, teal couch inside Fig & Honey Cheese Co. and enjoy charcuterie boards and “Shareables” like the Baked Brie topped with garlic honey drizzle and pecans.

Next, see inside Saginaw’s antiquing scene for vintage finds & one-of-a-kinds at Adomaitis Antiques, Court Street Antiques, and Old Town Furniture. (These three shops are within earshot of one another, enjoy!)

Shop more than 20,000 square feet inside the Antique Warehouse, and travel back in time at Pride & Country Village through seven shops that span more than 40,000 square feet.

Discover more than 90 booths inside Freeland Antique Mall, or check out Thrifty Treasures Antiques & More and The Iron Gate Emporium in nearby Birch Run — both close to Birch Run Premium Outlets, a shopping mecca of more than 100 designer and name brand stores!

Lunch: Nevermind the weather — it’s always comfortable inside Fralia's, where fresh deli sandwiches and homemade soups are always on the menu. Enjoy made-to-order Asian cuisine inside Pasong's Cafe, known for the best spring rolls in town, or let Mexican dishes and a menu of sandwiches keep your mind off Mother Nature at Valerie’s Downtown.

Evening: Attend a Board & Brush Creative Studio Pick Your Project Workshop and plan to leave with a hand-stained and -painted piece of decor for your home — or your front porch! Take in a live concert or show at The Dow Event Center or Temple Theatre and check for performances at Pit & Balcony Theatre, one of the oldest playhouses in the nation!

Have a nightcap at The Taproom at Stardust, and maybe bowl, ride bumper cars, or try axe-throwing while you’re there! Or belly up inside Old Town Saginaw’s neighborhood pubs to bring unique flavors to your night.

Look to Oracle Brewing Co. for inventive craft beer in a laid-back space (and order the C-Beans chocolate coffee stout). Old Town Distillery serves up craft cocktails with vodka, rum, whiskey, and moonshine, distilled on-site — and Woody's Draught House is your place to be for nearly 100 rotating beers on tap.
