Musings on my neverending quest for sugar

My first high-class experience

Man, does Pomona have a lot of money to throw around when it comes to official stuff. The new bio building (which is tres hot, btw..) was dedicated today, and as a biology slave, I was obliged to attend and look busy in the labs.

We were all invited to a catered lunch, and usually when Pomona means "catered" they mean dining hall food, except not in the dining hall. But there was one very VERY important difference - there were trustees present.

And so they really pulled out all the stops - real silverware (correctly placed), nice chairs, china plates, silk napkins, salmon, filet mignon, fruit parfait, and a piano player in the corner. It was truly high class. My eyes (and taste buds) are still reeling.
