Lunch Ideas


Well, the time is almost here - the twins start kindergarten on Monday, August 10th. They will just be going 1/2 day for the first week and then switching over to full days that next week. I am trying not to panic - I am SO excited for them, I completely loved elementary school....in fact if I could have gone straight from elementary to high school that would have been GREAT. I digress.....I would love simple/nutritious lunch ideas from any of you - I'm pretty sure the twins might get sick of sandwiches/pretzels/fruit so I would like to have other options to give them. We are going to let them get hot lunch a few times a month - but at $1.75 per lunch I figure I can make it much cheaper. Thanks!

Our kids will be taking home lunch this year also. They are dying. Anyway, I've seen kids at school that can hardly wait for lunch because they have "bugs on a log" (celery, peanut butter, and raisins), tortilla rollups (sandwich stuff in a tortilla), "fruit dunkers" (yogurt and lots of fruit), and spaghettios that have been warmed up in the morning and are now cold. They just love those things.

I can't believe they are going to school. OOOH so much fun. We still miss you guys. We've truly enjoyed the tubes this last week. Used them a ton. Thanks.

Oh good! I'm so glad you guys are using them - we really have no where to use them here! Thanks for the ideas! We still miss you guys too! I hope we are always missing you - except when we get to see you of course!

We decided not to start our twins until next year. They are still pretty little, but with a dad that is 5'9", I am affraid they might not be too big as it is! Good luck and I am sure your lunches will be terrific.
