Anyone attending the Grand Rapids show at Meijer Gardens this weekend?

I wish I could, but I'm needed at home this weekend and can't get away. The next show in Michigan is going to be the Greater Lansing, but that's a month away. I'm getting orchid show withdrawal symptoms!

I hope they have a big turnout! It sounds like the weather is going to be fair.

Well at least when you get to the Lansing show, you can console yourself retroactively by getting orchids and stocking up on MSU made icecream at the campus Dairy Store.

It looks to be unusually nice weather for the weekend. Normally, temps are bitterly cold, and snow is flying.

Hoping for a good turnout as well. I'll be helping one of the vendors and I like to see them do well.

Is MSU ice cream 13% butterfat - 3% air - 15% sugar?

Don't know but iz gooood! They make their own and have a lot of different flavors. The university has a lot of agriculture related colleges including dairy. Students planning on going into the dairy industry learn about making quality ice cream as part of that.
