grilled


Rachel Campbell and I go back a long way...back to Bullet, Big Orange and the OSU Pokes. Between the stresses and demands of our studio classes, were lunches of melted cheese and toasty bread. There is this student cafe in the Human Environmental Sciences building at OSU - HRAD students run it - where I would regularly curl up with some food and the day’s lab work. One day Rachel came in and plopped down next to me to rant on the current gossip. I was full and couldn’t finish the rest of my sandwich so I offered up the uneaten half with a side of ranch dressing. That was it.  We have had a cherished friendship ever since. Good food can bond anyone.
