By coincidence, our green celebration started a week ago when Roman's pre-school class marked Dr. Seuss' birthday by making (brace yourself, vegan friends/family) green eggs. (Although no ham, since it was a Friday during Lent.) He came home with the recipe - eggs, a few drops of blue and a few drops of green - and whipped up a green breakfast for lunch.
Today we attempted green waffles, but the results were, incredibly, even less appealing:
And while we're on the topic of green food, behold this recent selection at lunch lady duty:
On the menu, this was called "seasoned green beans." See that seasoning? It's ham. HAM. Yep, here in Wichita, pork is a seasoning. (Although presumably not on Lenten Fridays.)
But back to St. Patrick's day, where we're also playing with our greens. As in money. Ben smoked us in Monopoly last night, finishing a financial and real estate whiz. Pretty incredible, considering that this is how he and Roman play:
And, finally, we're running the green...er, Anthony is, anyway.
He raced this freezing morning and placed 6th overall with a 24:42 4-mile time. Pretty impressive from our spot at the festive finish line.
