Back To School

Well, it's Back To School time for the 2014-2015 year.  

So that mean's it's back to lunch packing and back to blogging for this girl!  This year I am making more lunches each day so I am trying my hand at making them the night before.  So far so good, but we'll see how it goes with my procrastination tendency.  

The first day of Maya's 4th grade year and Max's 2nd grade year:

First day lunches:
 Maya's had a ham and pepperoni sandwich using my new Cuddle Palz cutter set reading a book; a vegan brownie; baby carrots, snap peas, and a cucumber with a  yellow pepper 4; raspberries and blackberries with a purple crayon pick.

Max's had ham, pepperoni and cheese sandwich; Annie's bunny cookies (because he doesn't like chocolate - crazy kid!); baby carrots, snap peas, and a cucumber with a yellow pepper 2; raspberries and blackberries with a blue crayon pick.


Tuesday lunches:
 Tricolor pasta with homemade meat sauce; Toast with "Have A Great Day" stamped in it; Snap peas, cucumbers and carrot "fingers" with a cucumber flower ring; Strawberries with a leaf pick.

Wednesday lunches:
 Breakfast for lunch!  Maya had hash browns with turkey in the hot thermos to attempt to keep it warm for lunch time.  In my Planetbox Shuttle lunchbox I packed her grapes, a waffle, a piece of bacon and syrup.  They also got a juice box.

 Max had scrambled cheesy eggs in his hot thermos.  In his Lego lunchbox he got his waffles, syrup, bacon and grapes.

 The other lunches I packed got waffles, grapes, bacon and a hard boiled egg.  This one is shaped like a tulip but my lighting in the kitchen wasn't the best.


Thursday lunches:
 Today I used my new CuteZCute Animal Palz cutter to make pocket sandwiches.  My bread isn't the best so the cutter didn't work as well as I had hoped.  They are supposed to look like a sheep and a bear.  They are filled with PB&J (Maya has Wowbutter - a non-peanut alternative).  They also have baby carrots, snap peas, yellow pepper strips and grape tomatoes from our garden; Raspberries and blackberries with a  pretty hat pick.


Friday lunches:
 The first Bronco's Friday of the year!!  (To learn more about Bronco Friday read here.  Today Max pear chunks and a couple of strawberries underneath with blue and orange crayon picks (Bronco colors); baby carrots, snap peas and grape tomatoes from our garden with a Bronco helmet; Ham, turkey and cheese with a  football pick and crackers to make little sandwiches.

Maya is not as into the football thing, although she did wear her Bronco's shirt to get candy from the Kindergarten teacher.  Her lunch was strawberries, cantaloupe, and honeydew melon with her name written in picks; Snap peas and baby carrots; Ham, turkey and salami with crackers.


Here's hoping everyone had a great week back at school!  

Thanks for reading!
