Lessons from the lunchlady: careful how ya phrase that
This week we served lunch four out of five days. This is PA people--the first day of buck is a National Holiday
Here's what I learned this week.
Corndogs are not Pigs in a Blanket. We were supposed to have corndogs but our order has been a little off lately. Instead we got one case of corndogs and two identical cases labeled pigs in a blanket. Really? Turns out my grandma's been making those wrong...they are really mini sausages wrapped in pancake. We served the "corndogs" with syrup. No one really noticed.
Playboy makes childrens clothing.. I know...I was a little surprised too until a kindergartener came in sporting a black jacket with the words PLAYBOY across the chest and pink playboy bunnies inside the hood.
Elementary language is contagious. It's true. A kindergartener referred to the cafeteria as the "bacteria" and our beloved custodian asked me to draw a chimley for his Cristmas display. Sadly, I am not immune. I asked if I should cut up some vegibles for the salads. it's a good thing we can laugh at ourselves.
There's no fruit! A third grade boy loudly declared that we were completely out of fruit. We stopped serving to fetch more only to find out that there were numerous cups of peaches. His response..."oh I thought those were carrots."
Santa breakfast is worth the work. We had tons of fun serving pancakes and sausages to the kiddos today. Santa took time out of his busy schedule to visit with us. There were tons of smiling faces.
What did you learn this week?

LOL to "carrots"!
I'm still laughing at the cartoon!
That cartoon is HILARIOUS! I can totally see how one might confuse Pigs in a Blanket with Corndogs...
Some great observations!
I learned that no matter how old a person gets, when Santa walks in and says Ho Ho Ho! it will make a person smile.
I love your life observations! You must be fun to work with. Can't wait to show everyone that cartoon. Too funny!
