“Throwback Thursday...” A story to give you chills! “Although I have had many FUNNY moments throughout my 27 year career. A VERY funny moment happened recently that helped to emphasize my age. Our Food and Nutrition Services Department just kicked off our inaugural “Throwback Thursday” menus. Once a month we bring back menu items from yesteryear. In August we brought back “Square Pizza”. Our Food Service Staff at Citrus High School (CHS) helped to get the students in the mood by dressing as Run DMC and playing their music while serving the students. The faculty and students were excited to partake of the square pizza but what made me laugh out loud is when a few students came up to me and asked why our staff was dressed as “pimps!” Obviously they are too young to remember Run DMC, which obviously makes me old!”
