No, it was ironic, the school, new in about '58 or '59, had a full kitchen, with what seemed all the equipment, remember all the stainless steel etc. but what was offered to us was some awful frozen pizza, I can't remember what else, it rotated, there was only a few options, so it was a packed/brown paper bag/ sack or whatever kind of lunch you want to call it from home. There were was nothing like you describe, just a nice, new looking, clean kitchen with some ornery looking heavy set woman always working in the back, with her hair in a net. I was not the smartest kid, that was for sure, but I immediately picked up on this, so what is the deal with this nice kitchen that they never use, at all, and that scary woman in the back, now we did have a cafeteria adjacent to it, so at one time they must have used the kitchen ? The custodian an old timer, would sift through the garbage and remove all the unwanted, left over lunches, sandwiches and whatever to feed animals at home, not sure what he had, nice fellow, know some of his siblings etc. This was '71 or so.

The only thing I remember about this place was that rectangular frozen pizza, and those ice cream sandwiches they had, LOL !

The next school I went to was literally vending machines, vending machine pizza and other unappealing garbage, and you had soda machines, candy and just total garbage, there was no kitchen, every so often closer to when I graduated, someone would come in with something really good, prepared off site, set up some tables etc. You either brought something from home, or had to deal with what was offered or forget it. I never heard of any school that offered something prepared at the school all those years and they had kitchens, or most did, always wondered what that was about. Was far better to bring your own.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
