Friday was an exceptional day. We had a delicious pancake breakfast with whole grains including bean flour. Bean flour makes the pancakes lighter and have a slightly nutty flavor without being overwhelming. After breakfast, we told the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. Each of them had a personality and a name: Melvin; Thaddeus; Lester and each had a different reason to cross the troll ridden bridge and come out victorious on the other side.
The kids acted this out for about an hour and had a great time.
We got to go outside for recess on Friday, and the children loved just being out in the sunshine.
We had our International Feast with ten parents for company. We had such a fine fare:
A delicious seaweed salad and sushi; a great bread dish with a unique filling; scrumptious hummus and crackers; fabulous hummus and pita bread; perfect enchilada dripping in cheese; light and tasty egg rolls; inscrutable spaghetti; magnificent cheese lasagna; an incredible Italian beef dish; and Miss Judy's own curried chicken, lovely Italian shells; a really interesting Philippine coconut pudding and the kids favorite potato chips.
It was a nice party, and the best thing about it was the kids tried all kinds of new things. They trusted, tasted and enjoyed, and our families also tried new things. We were so delighted.
Our thanks to all our parents who participated in the International Feast. Well done!
