Hot packed lunches

Can I just recommend one of these if you want to send your DCs to school with hot food?

They are brilliant - they keep food hot for up to 5 hours and are small enough to fit inside lunch bags (yet large enough to take a decent portion).

And if you happen to live near Oxford, Boswells are selling them for a bargainous £12.50!

Yep, sent DS in with pasta yesterday. I anticipate using it a couple of times a week at least as he's a fussy bugger now FT.
