We have finally found success in the packed lunch department! I'm not sure why, but in the past it has been a last minute scramble for leftovers in the fridge, granola bars, apple sauce, or crackers. It was a "Shoot! What about lunch?!" sort of thing as we were leaving the flat, rather than a top priority which it absolutely should have been. I mean, Nory's food has always been prepared in adequate time (because I want to make sure she's eating certain things throughout the day), but ours was just not viewed with the same level of urgency. That is until we found THESE.....these beautiful lunch containers from where other than Pottery Barn Kids!
Since purchasing these lunchbox gems, I'm having a lot of fun putting our snacks together the night before work. Finding different coloured foods to fill each little part - and make the finished product look so organized and pretty - involves the creative process and I've always been a fan. I've also found this eating arrangement to be ideal for grazers like me.....or for those who only have 5 minutes here or 5 minutes there to get some energy into them (ah-hem, ALL TEACHERS)!
That being said, if I don't get the job done before I go to bed, there's NO CHANCE it will get done at 4:30 in the morning! I suppose the time it takes me to put them together is a bit of a drawback....but if I can motivate myself after dinner each evening, it's 100% doable :)
Alright, it's BED TIME!!!! The morning seems to come extra early around here. We hope you all had a wonderful weekend!!! XOXO
