I'm in a high school today, doing my standard jicama salsa demonstration,just chit chatting with the teenys, and I grab my lime from my cooler to add the mix. A kid in the front row sees my lime and randomly says the kid next to him,
"when life hands you lemons, make lemonade."
Ok, like that had anything to do with anything. Typical though, high school kids just blurt weird shit like that all the time. So I respond with,
"Ya, and when life hands you limes, make jicama salsa."
Now everyone thought this was hilarious, we all just start laughing pretty hard. But then I realised everyone was just actually me. Everyone else is just staring at me. Smart ass kid in the front row starts to laugh and says,
"I'm laughing, but only cuz I feel bad for you."
Ouch. That was just joke number one. Next, I start passing out the salsa to kids to sample. I ask one of the Plastics in the front row if she's gonna have a sample and she says to me with a look of disgust on her face,
"I. Dont. Eat. Vegetables."
I respond with,
"Well I've heard of people who don't eat meat. What are you like against the harsh treatment of greens?"
To which I bust up laughing again. And same as before, no one else does. Whatev I thought my jokes were funny.
I also experienced my first fire drill in quite a while, it was my first time doing it in a chefts coat though, so that was fun. Everyone I passed in the hall would either just stare at me or ask "so what'cha cooking today chef, you wanna give me some?" Ya, that one never gets old, but every male teacher who says it so me seems to think they were the first.
