Today the school hosted a welcome luncheon for Miss Cake. It was great to see so many folks from school getting together to socialize, and I think it gave her a good introduction to the essential characters on campus. Chrissie spoke a bit about The Program's history, then Mr. R thanked our guests (state representatives-- two of them!) and introduced me, who in turn introduced the guest of honor. Lots of introductions going on. Mr. R had asked me to talk a bit about The Program, but I got so flustered that I just started rattling about Lord-only-knows-what-all, then sat down. Which was fine, because at that point we got gift bags! Miss Cake got lots of Baker goodies (t-shirts, planner, umbrella, you name it) and I got a lovely school bag filled with tons of fun stuff, including chocolate. You can check it out here. Big thanks to Chrissie, Roe and Estle for making it happen.
That night, we went with Ed and Frank to see the Playhouse production of High School Musical. The kids were obviously having a great time on stage, and despite the painful cheesiness of the plotline, I found the show very entertaining. Shout-out to Angélique, whose role included a line about joie de vivre; her flawless pronunciation made her French teacher proud. And Guy... well, he stole the show, as usual.
