how many calories I can consume at work, and still be hungry
how many calories are handed out to teachers (potlucks, gift cards, breakfast bagels, Valentine’s Day gifts . . . )
how many calories I don’t need or crave on the weekends

Five things I never knew . . . until I became a teacher:

Lean Cuisine is a staple lunch utilized by teachers
microwavable meals are easy, as such the best packed lunch for busy teachers
microwavable meals are low-fat because they’re tiny
microwavable meals are so tiny and unfulfilling I get hungry an hour later
I actually hate microwavable meals, especially Lean Cuisine

Five things I never knew . . . until I became a teacher:

crayon sets come in a whole lot of options (8, 12, 16, 24, 36, 48, 72, 1000)
crayon brands don’t matter that much
crayon sharpeners are a joke
crayons can be hidden, lost, and found basically anywhere
once opened a crayon box is never able to close again–not properly, not easily
