On August18, 2012, the White House staff prepared for a special group of guests. The First Lady was hosting an important lunch.
At 10 o'clock, her guests arrived. Fifty-four children, each with a parent or grandparent, walked into the White House. The lucky guests were the winners of the Healthy Lunchtime Challenge. It was a contest created by the First Lady a few months ago. She asked kids ages 8 to 12 to think up healthy, delicious lunch recipes. Winners from across the country, one from every state, were brought to Washington D.C, for the “state dinner”.
At the start of the meal, the First Lady welcomed her guests and congratulated them on winning the contest. “You were the winner in your state—the whole state,” she said. “You guys won! Cool!” She also explained what made the recipes win. “You came up with dishes that are good for you, but more importantly, they taste good, too,” she said.
Just before the dessert time, Michelle stood up to make an announcement. “We have a special guest who wanted to stop by and say hello,” she explained. “So it's my honor to introduce the President of the United States.”
The President walked to each table, shaking hands with the winners and their family members. For the kids, this was the icing on the cake.” It was amazing to watch the President,” Kayla, one winner said. “His visit was a surprise and that's a really big meal.”
