Lunchtime

Damian takes his lunch everyday in this little canvas bag. It's actually from when I lived in Germany and I bought it at the market there and I think it is so darn cute when Damian comes home with his empty rainbow frog kissing turtle canvas bag.... So what is in his canvas bag??
I have been obsessed with Ciabatta sandwiches lately. Damian's fav is when I make Caprese but I have been mixing it up a bit lately. This one is sundried tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella cheese, mixed greens and this white balsamic salad dressing that I can almost just drink...This went into Damian's lunch today.. He usually eats at his desk. Nothing fancy...
xoxoxoxoxoxo So here is the rest of what I packed today for Damian. It is a Mixed green salad with tomatoes and candied pecans, pirates booty, banana, Hansens soda and that ciabbata sandwich...
mmmmm
Here is what Chloe and I ate.. Left over veggie pizza that we made last night. Trader Joe's has whole wheat pizza dough all ready to go for you and it's $1.29!! What a steal. We have pizza every Thursday. I roll it out and the kids spread the spaghetti sauce, sprinkle whatever toppings, last night it was green bell peppers, onions and mushrooms then cheese. Bake it for 10 minutes at 450 degrees! DELISH!!!! This is Makena's lunch.. It varies day to day but today this is what I packed. She takes it in her Tinkerbell lunchbox.. It is a slice of leftover veggie pizza, pirate's booty, sliced strawberries, yogurt and of course her Sigg water bottle filled with juice/water. I always pack 2 cloth napkins and an ice pack so it's nice and cold!
At school they have them pick one person to eat with, put one napkin on their lap and use one as a placemat. But I wonder how it really goes because everyday Makena tells me what quite a few other kid's had in their lunch, hers isn't is touched and I'm always tracking down those cloth napkins.... What did you have for lunch today????

shut up right now! I am just praying right now that Troy NEVER looks at your blog, or he's going to feel so jipped! When do you throw that little gourmet lunch together? night or morning. You are too much. What a good wife!
