Yay, a salad party! Wait, what?
That's right. We got invited to a salad party at Zeke's school today. Not knowing what to expect, we showed up at the school and were led to Zeke's classrooms, where we saw a rather large group of adults seated in kids' chairs along the wall. We joined them and watched as the students were marched in wearing their special chef outfits.
The students gathered around a table filled with all sorts of salad items, some of which included peas, carrots, potatoes, and corn. They played some music and told the kids to make a salad until the music stopped. Some kids were piling their plates high with salad. One kid was crying. Zeke was slowing making himself a very very small salad.
Once the music stopped, the kids stopped making salad, and the kids were led one by one to their parents to give them a taste of their salad. Zeke, when he saw the first kids giving it to their parents, he started to sneak more food onto his plate, I guess knowing that he didn't have to eat it.
After most of the kids went, we got our bite of salad, exclaimed how good it was, and put a little paper metal around his neck. Then all the students were marched out, we were thanked for joining, and that was it. It took about half an hour, but it was fun, and definitely educational. (-:
