The TAKS Breakfast

All around Texas this morning, mothers of fourth graders who usually, like me, make their kids dig out their own yogurt cups and toast their own waffles on school mornings with no more assistance than the Did you eat protein? mantra, are putting eggs and waffles and pancakes and fruit on the table for their amazed fourth graders and telling them to eat up. It's the standardized test breakfast, a long-standing tradition for many families in this land that produced out test-happy president. Eat up, kids, and good luck!
