What did you have for lunch today?

Today was an interesting day for me. I worked at my friend's preschool, and got to be in the "big kid" room, next to my usual (these days) toddler room. Of course, when we were all outside, my toddler friends came up to the fence and talked to me, but I spent most of the day teaching "catch" (with a ball) and and building sandcastles with the older kids. But my post is supposed to be about lunch.They served us lentil bean soup today at the preschool, and it was really good. I had a table of eight kids, and only three of them wanted soup (it looked a bit too "grownup" for them). There were also strawberries and crackers, so many of my charges had strawberry and crackers for lunch. But *I* scarfed on the soup. It had meat, carrots, and onion in it, and was quite tasty. I was able to get one kid to eat some carrots and broth, after gushing about how good it was. I also worked extensively with a "troubled" 4-year-old boy. He hits other kids, knocks down their sandcastles, and gets upset and cries over random things. He's attached to me and will let me comfort him. I want to find out more about his family history, so I can know how best to help him. Oh, sorry. Too much thought. This is a food post. I had lentil soup and haven't yet decided what to have for dinner. How about you?
