Commendable!
Beetroot macaroni and cheese
Feta and tomato skewers with basil, hummus with carrot and cucumber bears, peach slices and grapes.
I also added (at his request) some crystallized ginger, for a “spicy treat”. His words 🙂
But what did I forget? Cutlery so he can eat it. Good thing the school is so close!
The fridge is pretty bare today!
Thanks to mum for donating some of last nights spanakopita (apologies if I haven’t spelled that correctly).
Today is payday, so I can shop 🙂
Feta & Broccoli pie
Middle Eastern theme
Chinese theme today
In honor of Chinese New Year, today we have a mushroom steamed bun, and leek dumplings with red vinegar dipping sauce.
He has a bunch of tiny fresh currants, and some unshelled edamame. Also a Chinese tea egg, apple and mango for crunch and sip, and a coconut and mango treat.
Library bag
Squish and I did some sewing on the weekend, a bear, with blanked and pillow, and a library bag for school. Inigo had his first go of the sewing machine, and has declared that he wants his own for his birthday next year.
And today I found out his library bag is supposed to be waterproof. Can I get away with sticking a shopping bag inside it?
The lazy persons guide to school lunchbox labeling
Friday casual day
Well, not really, but Squish wanted leftover risotto for lunch today, and I haven’t refined my system enough to use the planetbox for wet foods. So my $2.80 Daiso store bento box came to the rescue.
He has mushroom risotto in the sealed section, carrot, grapes, the last of the sweet mini tomatoes and a cheese bunny as sides, and orange and nectarine for crunch and sip.
I can see a spare planetbox big dipper in our future, and I might experiment with crumbling and frying the risotto leftovers to make yummy and lunchbox friendly risotto balls.
