I’m lucky to be married to a wonderful man who not only loves to cook, but doesn’t mind doing the dishes. I’m definitely spoiled. He often writes about the delicious things he makes, which you can check out on his blog. Well last night I took it upon myself to make dinner & I wanted to blog about it. So: here’s my 90% all-local chips & cheese & salsa dinner! Just wait until I’m on Top Chef – I’ll be making toast & cereal!! Fancy!
Chips: Better Made, Detroit, MI
Cheese: Meijer, Grand Rapids, MI
Beer: Founders, Grand Rapids, MI
Salsa: not local

I started this post at 8:30 this morning & I’m just now finishing it up. I’ve had a hard time concentrating today – my head is foggy, my throat hurts & my sinuses are feeling crummy. Despite that, today was wonderfully sunny & I spent a lot of time walking around campus enjoying it.
Instead of attempting to write anything else, I’ll leave you with a photo of the city I’ll be in 70 days from now. [!!!!]
