THINGS THAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY

I substituted in 3rd grade yesterday. Leah was here so she went with me and had the most wonderful time. The third graders were participating in an awards ceremony. We all took our seats on the bleachers where the students soon brought to my attention a pile of something on the floor, with tissue nearby. I had the students all move away from the pile and I went for the janitor. She soon came with her cart containing every cleaning tool known to man. She came up on the bleachers, bent down to look and asked me what did I think it was. I assured her it was poop. Upon closer inspection she determined it was a chewed-up pickle. Needless to say, we about died laughing. We were all quite relieved.

Later in the day Mama and I took Leah to Bardstown to meet Michael. She wasn't happy about being cold and had to be wrapped in a blanklie and carried to the other car. Can't say that I blame her. The wind was freezing. She got settled and left for home. I was sad to see her go, I'm missing her tonight. I wish they were all here.

Mama and I were hungry so we decided to get something to eat. We wanted something out of the norm, something in an interesting building with the best food for miles around. Mama had me looking for a place that surely has been closed for years. We don't much like Old Talbott Tavern, except for the cherry cobbler with ice cream. So we settled on Mammy's Rock 'n Robin cafe. From the street it looked ok. The inside wasn't too bad, it was clean. But then our food came, Mama had mashed potatoes (no gravy), green beans (which she didn't order and didn't eat), I had what I thought surely had to be bologna quesadillas . Strange little squares of meat (maybe it was meat) made me wonder if it was bologna.The two triangle shaped pieces were huge, filled with tomato sauce, onions, peppers and squares of bologna. We did have a good time laughing at ourselves. We were hungry all the way home.
It was an interesting Thursday.
