Curious George made a visit to our local public library, which was terrific. Grandma Turner attended with us too, along with the remainder of the under-5 population of the greater Grand Ledge area.

When we arrived (albeit, a little late, due to unforeseen Michigan Avenue construction in Battle Creek), we were provided with a brief tour of Arcadia's production facility, and given a menu agenda for the evening. Chef Sean described the evening's meal as turning food inside out, changing our perception of what we typically perceive, encounter, and eat.
