so, what did you put in your dd/ds's packed lunch this morning?

[dinny]

because I am in need of inspiration after th first month of being a new packed-lunch maker!

Having said he does his own ont he other thread, he offered me A FIVER to do it for him last night so I did. And took the money, heartless, me

marmite sandwich
birthday cake (his party at we)
apple
kiwi cut in half
grapes
kitkat (again only because we have party leftovers, don't usually buy them)
cucumber
satsuma

this morning,
sandwhich,
lemon cake,
some cereal bar

some mornings, frozen yhogurt tube thing, carrot sticks, mini peparoni, wedge of cucumber, satsuma, chocolate cake, crisps, pretty standard fare /fair???? grub

this won't be very inspiring dinny!

dds fave meal of the moment-ham and tomato sauce on wholemeal bread, slices of cucumber and pickled onion, yoghurt, leftover stewed apple and sultanas with cinnamon

kiwi cut in half, www? with teaspoon?

Thisisascaryplaice - fare

and do you pack drinks?

sounds nice, pollywolly (except the ham)

Yes, teaspoon in the lunch, kiwi cut in half and wrapped in foil

sometimes put prawns in too, frozen (well, not since our economy drive) and they've defrosted by lunchtime
also sometimes samosas and veg spring rolls

water bottle

yes, to drinks, bottle of squash,
water for break, and fruit too

I've just done ds1's for tomorrow and he's got a cheese sandwich (smoked Applewood - he's got good taste !), a Spiderman Frube , a carton drink, a small chocolate bar and will have an apple cut up into pieces.

mine also like cold pasta or rice, in a nice sauce obviously.. if it is not all eaten the night before

chicken sandwich
tube yoghurt
small apple
homemade flapjack
drink of juice

what came home?
most of the apple, and most of the drink.

Chunk of chicken
Popcorn
Peeled carrot

Tomorrow he will have

Chicken sandwich
Banana loaf cake
Banana chips
Packet of wotsits

cheese sandwiches on wholemeal
carrot sticks
yoghurt

drink

A bagel with cream cheese, ham and cucumber, a fairy cake, some strawberries and orange juice.

In ds2's lunchbox (Year 1)...

Carton of apple juice
ham roll
bag of crisps
school bar
box of raisins
frube yoghurt

The crisps came home uneaten.

ds takes the same everyday. He doesn't like cheese or marmite, and I refuse to give him jam sandwiches (which all his friends allegedly have ).

2 slices of Hovis granary bread filled with tuna.

Apple, plum, a corner yoghurt for kids with chocolate balls & a mandarin.

Bottled water.

Today ds1 had

a wrap
6 cocktail sausages
cherry tomatoes
red pepper sticks
cucumber sticks
a chopped kiwi
carton of apple juice

Tomorrow he's got

ham sandwiches (star shaped - the only way he'll eat sandwiches )
cherry toms
pepper sticks
cucumber
a plum
apple juice

marmite on wholemeal roll
fromage frais frube thing
humzinger fruit bar
raisins
apple
flapjack
carton of juice or milkshake

dotty, how do you chop the apple without it going brown?

I saw a great tupperware box today - had 3 little compartments within it - Lakeland? or anywhere nearer?

God, how sad am I?

for the record - dd's packed lunch this am was:

tuna and cucumber sandwich on linseed bread
bottle Buxton
chopped carrots
few grapes
half pkt those French Fries crips in little bag

boring!

Cucumber sandwich (!)
Baby Bear meat - on its own (!)
Baby Bel cheese - opened but not eaten - sigh
4 Organix animal biscuits
Pot of grapes
Water bottle

The other night DD (aged nearly 4) woke up screaming in her sleep "I want to make my own packed lunch". "Yes, you can do it tomorrow". "But I want to do it yesterday". "But you DID do it yesterday..."

Chicken, lettuce and mayo roll
home-made choc chip cookie
melon (not a whole one obviously )
water

oh, and some cheese and biscuits for an afternoon snack as she stayed on for an after-school club

Ham salad sandwich on wholemeal bread
2 plums
1 banana
Fruit shoot

Bag of low fat crisps

That's funny BC!
