I know what your thinking....since when is a school lunch good?
It's so good that the lunch lines are extremely long. Some of the 8th graders have to stand in line the whole lunch period and then have to gobble their lunch down quickly before the bell rings.
My son? He's got a system.
The other day, we were talking about his lunch period. He was telling me how the lines were long. Apparently the 7th graders get out for lunch 10 minutes earlier, but now that the quarter is ending the 8th graders will get to be the ones getting out earlier. It's a HUGE deal, if you happen to be in 8th grade.
My son was telling all about this when he started telling me his system for getting through the line quicker.
It involves cutting in line. heh!
Anyway, he's telling me his method and he says to me that the mexican line is shorter.
Whaaaa???? HUH????
The mexican line?
I couldn't believe they had a line just for the mexicans. What is this world coming to?
My son, on the other hand, couldn't figure out what I was talking about. He just stared at me.
Finally, he says to me, "Mom, the mexican line is for mexican FOOD, not people. And the mexican food is not as good as the pasta."
Oh.
When he told me that I just couldn't stop laughing. I can't believe I thought there was a line just for the mexicans. D'oh!
I won't go into his system because, like I said, it involves cutting the line, but he assures me that right now he has a much better plan for getting through the line.
He helps his friend that has a broken leg. Broken legs get you to the front...along with your helper.
Ahhhh, my son. He just cracks me up!

LOL! Our food isn't good enough for our school to have this problem. As for whatever method he's using - let him go for it. If the school doesn't like it they'll stop him. If he can get away with it, I say go for it.

haha, I thought the same thing at first! We're BOTH blond! heh... ;) ~~Aid
ReplyDeleteMake that 3 of us blondes! We live in the rural south and live very protected lives... wouldn't put it past some schools to do such a thing...LOL
ReplyDeleteI have a 7th grader and I can imagine him having a scheme to get through the lunch line faster... he has one for everything else! LOL
Kids are great!!
I'm just as surprised that they have a separate line for maxican FOOD hehehe what is it like a food court at the mall or something??
ReplyDeletethe cafeterias have changed so much since I was in school!!
in my day they had two main choices that changed most days...or a tuna salad plate or PB&J...that was it..and most of the choices were not particularly healthy or nutritious :/
I was just reminiscing with an old school friend about the days where we had pizza AND mac & cheese (as in the mac & cheese was a side dish to the pizza!!)
mmmmm maaan I loved pizza mac & cheese day!! hahaha :/
