One of the perks of living at OSSM is eating in the cafeteria for free. It has it's pros and cons, but it has been a big help financially and since having Todd. Breakfast is usually fast so Chris and Elle grab something from the kitchen and then bring it back home. If we eat lunch in the Great Hall we usually sit at the "teacher" table with the other faculty. At dinner we have a regular table with the other dorm staff. This is usually where we sit on the weekends too. This school year we've had some changes to the staff and we had to request putting two tables together. We've got 4 kids living in the dorms now! You'd think we're missing out on something by not eating at home together, but we're not. We've developed a dinner family. It varies night to night depending who is on duty, but most nights it's the same people. We talk about our day or what's going on in each others lives and the kids play when their done eating. As much as I get tired of dorm food I still miss our dinners when OSSM is on break.
Todd doesn't always cooperate during meals.
