Santa visited my house today, driving a brown truck and wearing a matching outfit. Technically I bought this stuff myself, but that doesn't make it any less exciting to be visited by the UPS guy! I got new lunch serving supplies for the whole family. Nate got new lunchboxes, in which I am going to start packing him bento lunches (or at least my version). They are Lock & Locks, which means they're totally airtight and microwaveable. They also have removable dividers so he can remove the parts that aren't microwaveable when he heats it. I packed his first "bento" about an hour and a half ago. In it are: ramen noodles (no seasoning packet) topped with taco meat and shredded, smoked cheddar; orange cauliflower; half of an apple; dark chocolate Raisinettes; and a strawberry bar. It's not the healthiest meal ever made, but it's a start.
I wanted to do something similar for the boys, but didn't see a need for a box since we eat at home. I found some divided trays that will work perfectly. I was surprised at how big they are, but it's nice that they will be able to use them for a while. Naomi wasn't left out of the fun, either. I found some great 2 ounce containers that I will use to freeze and serve home-made baby food. She also got this adorable divided food container that looks like a mini bento box. This will be great for taking food to Grandma & Grandpa's. It even has its own spoon! At the left, you can see a picture of the motherlode!I'd better sign out for the night so I can get a blog in under today's time stamp. Good night, all!
