The other day when Skyping with Grade 5B students of Holy Cross School, Rumson,
New Jersey, a student was curious to know the types of food I have eaten
during my mission.
Primarily, my diet consists of "carrots" and
____________, occasionally there is a pizza treat, or a surprise meal of
cow intestines and tripe - the honeycomb lining of the stomach.
Honestly, the carrots are preferred over the "cow inners." Bon Appetite!

The pizza ... well, it is a far cry from "Sea Bright Pizza". What a way to lose a few pounds, but you certainly need to keep eating up your carrots! When you return, the good old HC cafeteria food will look like a feast to you. Keep healthy!
