DH and I have one day off together (without DS) these holidays which is Thursday. We've arranged to stay in a Travel Lodge type hotel which doesn't do food on Wednesday evening (driving up once I finish work). They don't do food apart from the Little Chef across the road and it's in the middle of nowhere. Both of us hate motorway food (I'm veggie and he used to be) plus would like to just 'be there'.
So I was thinking, what can I/he make that we can transport to have a 'romantic picnic' in our hotel room? I'll have already had sandwiches for lunch so would like something a 'little different'. The drive will hopefully only be an hour and a half so I'm wondering if DH heats 'whatever' up before he leaves and we put it in my 'cool bag' rucksack, would it still be hot/warm? If not, I also have a small flask (probably half a litre at most) but would be willing to buy a larger one if I could think of what to put in it. The cool bag has plates/bowls/cutlery etc so that won't be a problem.
Any ideas? I'm sure it's obvious and I'm just having a 'can't see the wood for the trees' moment!!
