On Monday, Colby and I celebrated our
third anniversary. We decided to spend the day in East Lansing, home of our alma mater, Michigan State University. Mostly, we went around the city and did some mundane errands, but we had lunch at
The State Room in the
Kellogg Center on campus and then dinner at
Dusty's Cellar. I managed to forget the camera for Dusty's and Colby didn't want me to go get it. Something about food blogging being weird. Pshh... what does he know? It ended up being okay, though. The meal at Dusty's was, unfortunately, forgettable, but we fared much better at lunch.
Today I'm grateful for Michigan State University. Aside from the education, networking, and friendships I acquired, I would never have the cutest little baby in the world in my life without it:

Prior to this lunch, I'd only been to the State Room once before, despite living in East Lansing for four years. This was right after our induction into Sigma Pi Sigma, the physics honor society and courtesy of a lifelong learning student who was also being inducted. She was old, her husband made lots of money, and she bought about 15 of us a fancy dinner. I don't really remember much of it, except that Colby wouldn't let us get dessert because one of our fellow undergraduates (who was given the not-so-affectionate nickname of douche bag) was getting dessert, so he wanted no part of it. This time, the food was much more memorable and delicious.

I'm still waiting on that dessert, though.
