Wacky Wednesdays
When my son was in Montessori I volunteered to be snack chairman for a year. That entailed getting a snack, milk, and juice for approximately twenty children in early care. Providing a morning snack, juice, and milk for upwards of eighty children during regular class hours. Then making sure the after-school group of twenty plus children had something. The school had a no-sugar policy. The toddler class was not allowed grapes unless they were cut in half to lessen a choking hazard. Also, the school was required to meet certain health guidelines on dairy, fruit, and protein and post the weekly menu on the bulletin board for the health department to inspect. I knew none of this when I volunteered for the position.

Winter Storm
“Whoa, careful!” Karen admonished herself as she slipped on the ice-covered snow outside her house. Central Texas didn’t often have winter storm warnings but a fierce storm had taken everyone by surprise. A quarter-inch of ice had settled on the ground early yesterday followed by five inches of snow this morning. Now light sleet and a dusting of snow were falling, creating another layer of ice on top of the snow. She had spent the night shivering under three layers of blankets when the power had cut off. She woke to find her pipes would yield only a trickle of water.
