This year marks the return of the St. Patrick's Day parade in Detroit for the first time since 2019.

This week our readers were most interested in where to buy weed and munch on pierogies to help support relief efforts in Ukraine.

Speaking of weed, Michigan ranks highly when it comes to its cannabis industry, and that definitely piqued the interest of some of our readers.

We’re sure many of our readers have fond memories of Saint Andrew’s Hall, and a lot of them wanted to read about the Baby Keem show that was cut short due to issues with the Detroit staple's floor.

All of that, and a little bit more.

Here are the top stories of the week:
