Day four – dinosaur forest
Luckily I spent most of yesterday prepping food for the rest of the week, and I made polenta with sundried tomatoes and olives, which is easy to cut into shapes, and also (apparently) freezes well.
So today we have a polenta dinosaur with broccoli trees and a tea egg sun. Small boy is enjoying making his lunches so much that I can use lunch as leverage to get him to do his piano practice without yelling about it.
Day three
Furikake rice blocks – these were a hit, and were requested for the next day as well. Purple was far preferred over the plain or the green furikake. But I refused, because I already had a plan for Thursdays lunch…
Day two
Dinosoar sandwiches.
First day of school lunch
Zucchini slice bunnies.
Results!
Inigo’s first bit of work to come home. Cutting, and sticking. You can see he’s done very well.
So proud.
Best Start
Can you tell someone is really excited?
And it looks like his teacher will be the one he fell in love with during school transition. Yay!
just add red wine,
wrap in alfoil, and bake at 180 for about 20 mins. Dip day old crusty bread in and enjoy.
Happy Birthday Dad.

Cutting!
I downloaded a practice sheet from the school sparks website, so that Squish can practice cutting. I am usually to paranoid to give him scissors without vigilant parenting.
He made a Christmas tree, sitting on the world.
School shoes
Inigo and I went to buy the last bits of school uniform today. For shoes, we went to the shop I went to every year when I was a kid. They have a train that kids sit on when they get fitted, and the staff take all the time in the world to make sure you get exactly the right shoes.
It feels right to do this big milestone with some ceremony.
