Operation Caring Classroom - Miss Kilmer

A big part of making it through any deployment is changing the way you think about things, food included! Students at West Manheim Elementary learned this first hand when presented with a traditional Afghan breakfast during this morning's Operation Caring Classroom presentation. Jellabee, cinnamon sugar pita bread, golden raisins, and tea were on the menu and most of the kids weren't sure what to make of it. We imagined the jellabee was orange funnel cake drizzled with honey and the pita bread was Cinnamon Toast Crunch. After hearing that, the kids were more than willing to sample their treats and some even found a new favorite food! Thank you Miss Kilmer for allowing me to come in and share my experiences with your awesome class!
