Kevin and I had a wonderful Bon Voyage/Open House Party, celebrating the end of a wonderful four years at Michigan State and the beginning of another fantastic adventure. Many thanks to all of you for your support and attendance if you were able to make it. We had somewhere around 120 people traipse through at some point last Saturday.
Food was potluck style (SO MANY COOKIES) with some supplementation from Thai Princess, our favorite Thai place in the Lansing area. They were very good to us - gave us a massive discount and sent along an extra pan of Pad Thai. Originally, I asked them to do 100 spring rolls, 100 chicken satay skewers, and Pad Thai for 50 people. Thai (yes, her name is really Thai) said "no, no. You like curry! Kevin loves massaman curry! We're making you that." Well, okay, fine! Haha. So we were expecting a peanut curry with spring rolls and chicken skewers. And suddenly all that plus pad thai showed up the day of! It was truly delightful.
Even more delightful were everyone's well wishes; it was very touching to see so many people take time to come say good-bye. I never totally broke down and started bawling...though some people certainly tried to make me!!
