Day 3 and 4 of lunch

Lesson learned: NO EGGS IN LUNCHBOX! Although I know it wasn't spoiled, as my youngest had the same lunch and ate it just fine, my school aged child said that the egg "tasted bad" and she refused to eat it. Fluke or not, it appeared she hadn't eaten much else in the lunch either!




Hoping for a better day tomorrow, I made a fresh batch of pumpkin muffins (my kids' favorite....an adaptation from Ellie Kreiger's recipe)....in the closed container is some homemade applesauce with a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar and the flower shaped sandwich is filled with cheese. The slices of wheat bread were the last 2 from the loaf I made this weekend and are rather thick, so hopefully it will be okay!

2 days of lunch

Day One:



Daughter reported that her lunch box today was a success! However (as I predicted) she didn't have enough time to eat...she is a S-L-O-W eater! She ate "all the yogurt and almost half of a half of the [cheese] sandwich" a carrot, 3 grapes, and the whole banana choc-chip muffin (which is actually *really* healthy....shhhh! don't tell!)

Day Two:



I'm trying a new approach to lunch today...snack-style. I'm attempting to see if she is able to eat more of her lunch in a short time this way. So, today's lunch had crackers, carrots, olives, 2 ban-choc-chip muffins and a cheesestick.
