The Michigander Melt - May 2026

Spartan Pride showed up this past weekend in East Lansing!

The weather was beautiful as the crowds descended on Michigan State University for the Spring Art Show! We were (nearly) front row and center to share our Award Winning Salsa with the fine people of Michigan, sharing sights, sun, and some very great interactions with the fine people of Michigan! It was a blast and we always enjoy visiting the fine people of Michigan!
