Sounds like a smaller, independent version of Panera Breads... :)

I've had to do that going some places... but my parents always had it
available...  Another instance of what one is used to...  ;)

I think my youngest brother is the only one that actually went straight
through... If the schools had been available, they'd've sent us there,
though, but that wasn't always an option.  All of us had at least
through 8th grade... I was the only one that didn't start there (K and
1st were public schools), but I did go through 11th...  I think they
used money they might otherwise have saved for our college for Christian
schools, since the plan was always that by the time we were old enough
to be in college that Daddy would be teaching at one that gave tuition
to his kids...  :)

Possibly... I never actually asked them how come rice and not potatoes. 
Macaroni and spaghetti were also fairly frequent... I think my first
lasagna at home was after I moved out and was doing my own cooking,
branching out... ;)

 RH>>> Only a couple of slices of that came home. (G)  
 NB>>> Is one surprised...?  (G)
 RH>> No, that's why I call it the "Vanishing Lemon Pound Cake". (G)
 NB>> Indeed.  :)

 RH> I'll have to make one some time when I know we'll be seeing you. (G)

Someday...  :)
