Today, Thursday May 13th, we made "Absolute Mexican Cornbread". At circle, the West Wing children asked, "what makes it Mexican?"
At the cooking table, we read all of the ingredients. They decided that the chile peppers would make it spicy and Mexican and to leave them out because they are too spicy.
During snack there was discussion of nationalities:
Lucy T: "I'm part Greek, part American, and Mexican."
Luca: "I'm part Mexican!"
Jasmine: "I don't know what I am!"
