I have never seen “High School Musical,” but White House nearly has me convinced that I need to do so immediately.

Somehow, we ended up with Musical Mango Applesauce(!) cups in our pantry. The lids have trivia questions on them, such as:

  • What summer job does Sharpay offer Kelsi?

    • Now, the lids also include the answers. So I have been somewhat spoiled. But it sounds positively magical. And there’s a character named Sharpay. How can I resist?

    So, have you seen it? Should I add it to my Netflix queue? (I know there are 14 sequels now, but I’m just talking about the first one.)
