We are all reveling the the great food here. Except for fish and shrimp, which we have about once a week, we've gone completely vegetarian. It's so easy to do with all the great beans, tofu, sauces, noodles, curries, and cheeses. In the teachers' room at school two days a week they have Thai food and two days Iranian. Both are so amazing. The Iranian in particular was a surprise with nice salads, humus, different kinds of rice and vegetable dishes. And, both kids and teachers get a whole hour for lunch--unheard of in public schools. It's like a mini-vacation!
Even John gets a menu with an array of choices from Korean, Thai, and then there's this guy from Southern California who caters Mexican/American, and even Pizza Hut has a piece of the school lunch action. So each day there are two or three different choices, which he orders and pays for two weeks in advance.
And then there's our cook, Suresh, who does a really nice job keeping the spices subtle enough even for John. And with the heat and all the work starting up a new year, we haven't really gotten into a very regular exercise routine. It could be a dangerous combination...at a fun restaurant we ordered ice cream sundaes after dinner on Saturday night. We got a kick out of one sundae that was named, "The last time ever I saw my waist."
