The Lunchbag of Notre Dame


In the mid 12th century, the bishop of Paris, Maurice de Sully, had the idea of converting two small basilicas into one larger building. Soon after that, Pope Alexander III laid the foundation stone for Notre-Dame de Paris. It was ultimately finished in the mid 14th century, and stands today as the most famous of the Gothic cathedrals, noted for its size and architectural beauty.

In the mid 20th century, my mom would pack a lemon in my lunch bag, that I would peel and eat like an orange. Yum. I knew only one other kid in 6th grade to do that, but he was weird.
