Volunteered at school today so I could see my little ones. Sierra can’t wait to tell everyone I’m her mom and Lincoln, well he’s a boy, I barely get a nod as he passes with his class. I stayed to eat lunch with them in the school lunchroom. I have to tell you … what awful stuff they serve these children. How can a child each lunch at 11:30 and then go back and concentrate, do their best work for another four hours, on white flour and sugar? It is just beyond me. I would be asleep if I ate that at lunch, today and when I was 8. When I was in school my lunches were gross and my refusal to eat things like spam kept me fairly skinny .. but this stuff they serve is just heinous.

Can I pack their lunch, yes I can, but they won’t eat as much of it. If I could pack some of mom’s roast, etc. it would be a different story, but that doesn’t work at all. But I tell you this, want to raise the level of education in our public schools, take out one half of the existing white flour and sugar stuff and they would be amazed what would happen.
