Year of Projects: Week 21

Hello! Not much has changed from last week....it was a very busy and exhausting week at school, so I came home and took naps most of the time...I didn't take any pictures of the restaurant, but here it is...
Our second graders were the waiters/waitresses...they also were the cashiers (with help), the managers, the hosts....they also did much of the preparing and cooking of the food with adult help...You can see in the background some of the artwork and classwork put up....the theme was Book Cook Cafe and we have been reading books that have cooking/food in them for a couple of months and doing academic activities based on the books...we also drew maps and did country reports...so needless to say, I am exhausted!  I was the door greeter.  I greeted the people as they came in and assigned a student greeter to take them to the restaurant....on my feet straight for almost 6 hours...

Not much happened when I got home.....but on Saturday I did go to the Rhode Island Sheep and Wool....I will post about that tomorrow....and I'll need to post another Stash Acquisition Saturday.....Massachusetts Sheep and Wool is next weekend.....

So my list has not changed much...I added a couple stitches to a couple rows of things...that's about it...

The restaurant looks like fun, but hard work. Hope you have a more relaxed week this week.

I can see why you'd be tired. I hope the restaurant experience was enjoyable and profitable for all. School's out soon!!!
