To give DP lunch for a 6 year old?

[NoCapes]

DP text me about 10 minutes ago saying he'd forgot to make his lunch so could I throw something together and bring it to him
His office is only about 15 minutes drive so I said yes

However
DP usually makes himself a hot lunch to heat up in the office microwave, but there isn't time for that, and I don't really have a lot of 'lunch' stuff in except the things I buy specifically for DS(6)'s packed lunch
So he has -
A tuna mayo & cucumber sandwich (cut into triangles obviously)
A 'fun size' apple
A little car shaped pot of nuts & raisins
An individually wrapped stick of cheddar
A minion frube
A penguin
And - here's the kicker - it's all in an Octonauts lunch bag

He'll be the butt of office jokes forever won't he?

Can't you put it in a plain box? Otherwise it's all fine.

..unless a tin of soup for hinm to heat up in the microwave and a sandwich would actually be less effort?

Lol, OP, I think it's funny! My husband regularly remarks that our kids get better packed lunches than we do!

Ha!

A relative of mine who assists in theatre (hospital not performing) never lived down the shame of having his mum bring his lunch to work after he forgot it. She dropped it off at reception and he was greeted with the words: "Sammy's mummy brought his din-dins" in huge letters on the whiteboard when he came out of an operation.

My DH would love a lunch like that. He used to use DD's Boofle lunchbox at times. Any ribbing by colleagues wouldn't bother him either.

Perfect OP! Plus I bet he will be secretly thrilled!

I would like one please!!

that's the kind of thing I'd do.

I think it's sounds nice a you've clearly got a sense of humour with the minions lunchbox.

Do update...

He's left all the Tupperware boxes he usually uses at work and none of the lids and boxes currently taking up a whole draw in the kitchen belong to each other (although I put them all back in after discovering this naturally!)

I'm leaving now, I will report back

Can't wait to see what his reaction was...

Oh god NoCapes that's perfect. That's really amused me!

I had to take DH's work shoes to him this morning (he cycles in and forgot to pack them). Sooo tempted to take in his slippers or knackered old Crocs!

Why doesn't he just go and buy something? By the time you make it and drive there and back it will have taken you approx 45 minutes.

When H started a new job I bought him a Batman lunchbox and Marvel Superheroes pencil case and he used both! I love things like that :o

Erm, just put it in a normal bag fails to see the hilarity The lunch is fine.

Ha ha sounds like a fab lunch.

Actually I think you'll make his colleagues jealous! They'll all want one (this might piss off some lunch making partners)

My pencil case is minions (yes I'm 43 and have a pencil case it's for my colouring pens)

sounds fab

Why can't he go out and get his own lunch? Sounds like a massive faff (on your part OP). Surely he has a sandwich shop or something nearby?

I regularly borrow dd's Doc McStuffin or Princess cool bag if I take a salad to work, many of my colleagues do as well. Childrens lunch bags are the right size and often a lot cheaper than a more grown up one.

BeStrong that made me proper lol

Isn't it a bit cheeky to call you to make his lunch & do a 30 minute round trip just to drop it off?

USE THE CANTEEN!!!!

I think he asked if she would take him some lunch, not demanded, and maybe he doesn't work near a sandwich shop and work doesn't have a canteen, mine doesn't.

The OP is happy enough to do the favour, isn't that what we do for friends and family? It doesn't sound like half an hour out of her day is going to fuck her whole week up.
