Why I love Indianapolis...

1. It has the benefits of a big city without the traffic and hassles of a big city. For instance- Friday night I went downtown to enjoy the final four hysteria and despite the thousands of people downtown it didn't take me any longer than normal to get downtown. We just don't have traffic problems. I'm not sure how but it's amazing.

2. We host some fantastic events. We have the men's final four every 5 years, the women's every 5, big ten championships, national swimming and diving championships, our first super bowl in a couple of years, and unending conferences and other tournaments.

3. I have some phenomenal friends in Indy.

4. IU medical center is where I've become a surgeon and there's something sentimental about that.

5. It's very affordable for a larger city.

6. I met my soon-to-be husband here and that will make me forever grateful for the city.

7. Maxine's chicken and waffles. Trust me. Next time you come to Indy we should eat there. It really is chicken and waffles and so much better than the name can convey.

8. I live in a neighborhood where my neighbor has done all of my yard work and snow shoveling for two years now. That is a pretty friendly city.

9. Patachou- best breakfast food in the city. I love this place. We can go there too when you come visit.

10. Indianapolis Colts- need I say more?
