Cafeteria Cuteness


Huge shout out to our fantastic cafeteria crew...Cyd, Sandra, Francisca, and Madonna. These ladies are the BEST. They care about kids. Enough said. I can't tell you how much I enjoy my time guarding the milk in the cafeteria. Not only do I get to chat with our super cafeteria crew but I also get to hear concerns, complaints, and sometimes kudos from my constituents...the kids. I could write an entire book about all the stuff the kids tell me as they reach for their lowfat chocolate milk. I hear about who's on red, a cousin's birthday, who got yelled at, who said a bad word, who hit someone, who cut in line, who's going to Mexico, who just got back from Mexico, who passed a benchmark, who passed their math facts, who didn't do anything in class, and the list goes on and on. Lately the kids have been asking me how my day is going. I just love that. They also compliment me on my shirts...even though they're the same shirts I've worn once a week for the last four years. Too cute. Today Cyd fried up some chicken. She really didn't fry it up, the chicken came in a box from some far away land. I have to say it was pretty good. I tried to resist eating the chicken, but I just couldn't help myself. I've been eating like a real pig lately...oh well. The kids were so excited to have fried chicken for lunch. I'm talking jumping up and down excited. It was so cute to see their excitement. Don't you miss the days when a piece of fried chicken was enough to make you jump for joy? Me too.

Fried Chicken .. jump for joy before you eat it because once you DO eat it, it just stays in one place and you can't do anything for a good long time. BLAHHHHH
