The simplicity of egg salad is elevated to extra flavorful amongst the add-on of pimento Olive Egg Salad

Today is our starting fourth dimension 24-hour interval of schoolhouse for this year! And I'm having this Olive Egg Salad for lunch. But that's non why I'm sharing this egg salad today. No. I'm genuinely posting this inwards laurels of my instructor co-worker in addition to friend, Deborah.

Why, you lot ask?

Because every twelvemonth on the starting fourth dimension 24-hour interval of school, Deborah brings an egg salad sandwich for lunch.

Every year.

See, luncheon fourth dimension on the starting fourth dimension 24-hour interval of schoolhouse tin endure a chip crazy for us teachers. Especially teachers of the starting fourth dimension degree 'little ones' similar me in addition to my friend Deborah. Our transcend priority at luncheon on that starting fourth dimension 24-hour interval of schoolhouse {and pretty much whatever other day at school, too} is making certain our 'little ones' are okay.

Making certain they know where to go. Making certain they know what to do. Making certain they know where to sit down ... how to brand their nutrient choices ... what their nutrient choices are ... how to deport their luncheon tray ... where the milk is ... making certain they got their milk ... giving out napkins when they forget them ... opening stubborn juice boxes ... in addition to stubborn milk cartons ... teaching how to opened upwards milk cartons ... replacing dropped straws ... in addition to dropped forks ... in addition to dropped napkins ... opening pudding cups ... in addition to Lunchables ... in addition to thermoses ... in addition to applesauce cups ... in addition to ketchup packets ...

Because the unknowns in addition to processes of luncheon on the starting fourth dimension 24-hour interval of schoolhouse tin endure real unnerving for our 'little ones.' So nosotros lead maintain aid of them. Because that's simply what us teachers of 'little ones' do.

And, on those real busy lunches of the starting fourth dimension few days of school, nosotros demand something super slowly to eat.

Yes, nosotros demand something portable. And something that tin endure eaten one-handed land directing 'little one' traffic in addition to circling our tabular array to swoop inwards in addition to aid where needed. Something that tin endure eaten standing up. Because nosotros most probable won't sit down down. And something that doesn't require a lot of fourth dimension to gobble up. Because fourth dimension is something nosotros won't have.

And so, my friend Deborah's first-day-of-school-egg-salad-sandwich tradition is brilliant.

Portable. Quick. Easy.

I'm super excited to endure dorsum inwards the classroom amongst my students today. As much equally I dearest my summer, yesteryear the fourth dimension schoolhouse starts dorsum upwards I'm ever produce to endure back.

And so, betwixt moments of directing my novel 'little ones' to their luncheon seats in addition to fierce opened upwards mayonnaise packets, I'll happily consume my Olive Egg Salad sandwich today.

One-handed, standing up, in addition to all.
