Laverne, Me, Shirly

We all agreed that we don’t actually look very fabulous today. But, it’s pajama day and well, it fits with the whole rolling out of bed and going to class thing.

We may not look fabulous but we cook up a pretty fabu breakfast/lunch.

DANIEL FAST

Poor Shirley can’t eat anything we’re serving up today because her Church just started a fast: The “Daniel Fast“. Her and several others in our co-op are all on a strict diet. I don’t know much about this fast but from what Shirley tells me, these are some of the restrictions:

1) You can’t eat anything with added sugar in it. Natural sugar is fine.

2) It’s a vegan diet so nothing that comes from an animal is allowed – No fish, no meat, no milk products, no eggs. ‘

3) Fasting lasts for 21 days.

She just started 2 days ago.

I think Dick would love for us to go on this diet. Uh oh.

On the plus side, I’d say there would definitely some weight loss involved!

Listen to me, all I care about is losing weight when it’s more of a cleansing.

Yes, a cleansing would be super nice too.

(And losing 10 pounds.)

But now my kids are now like…

“Mommy, you know how to make chocolate chip pancakes???“

Crap. Thanks Shirley! ;)

OJ, SYRUP, AND DESSERT

Ice Cream Cake

A WHAT??? A SNUGGY???

Since it’s PJ day we’re somehow talking about PJ’s and something called a “snuggy” comes up. A what? What the heck is Snuggy? I have NO CLUE what they are talking about.

Laverne and Shirley are shocked. They’re like…

“It’s on those commercials on TV…”

No, I don’t watch TV.

Then one of the high school kids comes thru the lunchline in one.

Thelma calls it a “backwards robe”. Good description. At first glance, it looks like a blue monk’s robe.

I think I still prefer a throw.

Catering and serving up lunch for around 100 people is not as easy as you think. Luckily, we have a great crew! I love my lunch ladies…we jive so well!!
