1.When my first children's book was published in 2001, I returned to my old elementary school to talk to the students about being an author and an illustrator, and when I was setting up my slide in the cafetorium, I looked across the room, and there she was: my old lunch lady
2.She was still there at the school and she was busily preparing lunches for the day
3.So I approached her to say hello, and I said, "Hi, Jeannie
4.How are you?" And she looked at me, and I could tell that she recognized me, but she couldn't quite place me, and she looked at me and she said, "Stephen Krosoczka?"

5.And she started telling me about her grandkids, and that blew my mind
