Here we go again!

Well, it's the first of October (already?!!) and as promised, I am resuming daily posts. I'm not promising anything verbose or über gourmet now... I'm solo parenting the world's most precocious five year old, back at my desk gig, and trying like mad to move into our own space before the year is through. 

You could say I have a lot on my plate, har.

But, Im taking this cue to reconnect with my kitchenlove, and the unsullied belief I have that food is love.

Today, Rosie has....

*"breakfast pie" - basically a muffin tin -portioned mini quiche made with broccoli, turkey bacon, cheese, and crescent rolls.

*carrot sticks

*canteloupe

*homemade yogurt dip

*sliced gala apple & Asian pear (for dipping)

*unsalted almonds

*matching fancypants water bottle

Now, to see what she brings back....

I know that there is a set time frame for lunch, and my social child often gabs more than she grubs. But! At least all the foods are familiar and things I know she will eat. A few years ago, I ordered some cute cloth napkins, but they fell out of use. I hope I can put my hands on them this weekend! More lunchbox love.
