I have challenged myself to be more healthy and less wasteful. I am going to journal my efforts to feed my kids healthy, waste free lunches and snacks. I will have some winners and some losers but I'm putting it all here...the good, the bad and even the ugly!

Day 384
Day 384 - Taco Lunchable. We had some leftovers from our Cinco de Mayo celebration yesterday. Ok not so much a celebration as an excuse to eat nachos, tacos and drink Corona!
