A Christmas Conspiracy

I think there is a conspiracy around here. I know it may sound hard to believe, but my students are trying to fatten me up. I'm not sure why. Maybe they think chubby teachers are jollier. Or cuddlier (it's my blog I can make up words if I want). Or slower and therefore easier to run
away from.

Or maybe they want to offer me up as a sacrifice to one of those Pokemon things. I don't know what those are exactly, but some of the kids seem to be in a cult that worships them.

By now you are rolling your eyes at my suspicions, but am I serious here people. My life may be at risk, or at least my dress size. If you don't believe me just check out the evidence:

Exhibit A:



This is a jar of Bar-B-Q Sauce that i received in a package of goodies. Now if someone gives you Bar-B-Q sauce they are pretty much expecting that you will eat meat with it and if you eat meat with it you'll need beans and potato salad and bread. See how they turned one little gift into a million calories?? Sneaky little people.


This jar of Cocoa was in the package as well. Hmmm...




It's chocolaty and I love chocolate. Plus it's warm right here in the winter when I need warm. Coincidence? I think not.


Exhibit B:



This is homemade jam from the fantabulous grandmother of one of my students. It is so yummy that i am forced to eat every last bite of it every year. Every bit people! That is VERY suspicious.


Exhibit C:




This is homemade banana nut bread. I love banana's. I love nuts. I love bread. See?? These kids are oh so clever. They have planned out this fattening uppening to the last detail.


Exhibit D:

They are busting out the big guns now. Coke AND chocolate...two of my biggest weaknesses.

So now I am sure you will have to agree with me that they are definitely trying to fatten me up. The only question now is why? I'll just hope that they want more of me to love, but if I suddenly disappear be sure and call in all Pokemon. I still say they are up to something.

However, while I am still alive and thin enough to type let me share with ya'll some of the other things the students brought in.

See that table full of goodies? I am a very blessed person to be teaching such a loving and giving group of children.

I got this from the sweetest little girl. She took the top off an ornament, glued it to a glass coaster and used it as a little vase. Isn't that the cutest idea??

And I LOVE this little pillow. It is so me. It's bright green and pink and it says, 'Life Is Good' and you know what? It is! It is very, very good.

Just in case I don't see you guys before Christmas (or before I am offered up to the Pokemon thingies) let me say...
