N is for Noodles

The kids from my kindergarten had a sleepover and the other teachers and I were there to help. When I arrived, parents were setting up this contraption using bamboo, crates and a hose. I had no idea what were going to be using them for. It looked like a makeshift waterslide.

 There was a bowl waiting at the other end. 

Noodles were pushed down the bamboo pipe with water from a hose. If you were fast enough and coordinated, you could catch them with chopsticks on the way down. 

Those not caught ended up at the bottom of the 'slide'.

Then you put your noodles into your soup to eat.
