so minisnick used to be a PB&J person almost everyday for lunch last yr.  we asked him this morning why he hasn't asked for pb&J yet this school year and he said one of his lunch friends (not in his class so just at lunch/recess) is allergic to peanuts so he didn't want his friend to have to go to another table.
At my nephew's school, it was the opposite.  There was one kid in the whole school that was allergic to peanuts, so anybody that brought a peanut-containing lunch item to school had to sit a a segregated table.   My sister was going to send him to school with a PB&J for lunch one day, and he pitched a fit.  She asked what was wrong and he said "I don't wanna have to sit at the peanut table!"  It was said in a tone that indicated that it was on par with being sent to a leper colony.

 
That's how it was at our kids school, eating pbj made you a lepper , banished to a separate table...

 
Mini-ram's entire school is a no-peanut zone.  Kids aren't allowed to bring anything, snacks or lunch, containing nuts.

 
When my kids were in grade school (about 15-20 years ago) A friend of his had peanut allergies and got his own lunch table assigned.  Amongst his gang, it was an honor (and not a punishment) if the kid selected/allowed them to sit at his reserved table during lunch.  Of course you couldn't have any peanut food.

 
minisnick got in trouble on Friday for throwing a pencil at a friend in class...and she is one of his good friends too.  Made him write an apology note this weekend to give to her today.  Never could get an answer from him about why he did it.

 
Took mini p-e to get Chinese food.    His fortune was "be demonstrative but do it with dignity.   I read it to him as he excitedly jammed the whole cookie in his mouth.  

 
good golly, picked up minisnick new bicycle last night for his birthday next week.  He better get some $ from some relatives to help pay for it....he already agreed to using bday to help cover the extra cost for the "trick" bike he really wanted over the plain bike.  

 
Mini-Ram has Mon/Tues off this week and Mon/Tues/Wed off next week.  I swear they need to start pro-rating the bill because the number of days he seems to have off is ridiculous.  Thank God my mother is watching him otherwise the daycare/babysitter bill would be enormous.

 
Looked through the school calendar and March was the only month where he had a full month of school.  Every other month had at least one day off.
