Mondrian-esque (105/365)

Cookie Monster has just destroyed Kermit's rectangle which he was using as a visual aid during his lecture....

Kermit the Frog: Well, ah, what you see here, ah, used to be a rectangle.
Cookie Monster: And it still is!
Kermit the Frog: Huh?
Cookie Monster: It's a wreck and it's a tangle...Ahahahahah!

Kermit's Rectangle Lecture, Sesame Street, Season 1, Episode 0017, 1969-1970, Sponsors: D, E, M, 8, 9

TIME: 11:49 AM
PLACE:  The school cafeteria
SUBJECT: Windows

HandsomeHusband and I ate lunch with DramaQueen and MonkeyBoy at their school today for Parent's Day.  Our luncheon choices were Chicken (Strips with Dinner Roll) or Beef (Sloppy Joe on Bun).  HH and I both chose the chicken.  We now see why DQ and MB are starving when they walk in the door at 3pm - they don't eat all their lunch!  Today however, with a little persuasion from HH and me, they did eat it all - even the green beans.   The windows in the cafeteria/gymnasium have always reminded me of Piet Mondrian's cubism paintings.  After lunch, we walked down to the library for the Scholastic Book Fair, where I was conned into buying willingly purchased books and one Nintendo DS video game (an I Spy title).
