Days 168 and 169

I didn't get up to go to the gym yesterday morning and it threw my entire day off.  That is why I am posting yesterday's lunch today.  I got my act together and made it to the gym for 5 and was back to my routine!

168 So yesterday's lunch was left over pasta salad, mini hotdog hearts, yogurt with strawberries and a little container of ketchup.

169 Today she has a grilled steak sandwich, carrots, cheese stick and yogurt with strawberries.

Day 167

167, Nothing fancy today.  It's the end of the week and I'm trying to get things cleaned up for the weekend.  She has turkey/salami roll ups tied with strawberry fruit "rope", grape tomatoes, yogurt and blueberries.

We are a big sports family living in a big sports town.  Our home team made it to the Super Bowl this year and we are all eagerly anticipating the big game on Sunday.  Today of course is Spirit Day at school.  So here D is rocking her team spirit in her Tom Brady jersey and a Patriots logo on her face!

Day 166

166 - Today D is using her fancy new Laptop Lunch Box.  Thanks again Whole Foods!!  She has Rainbows and Butterflies pasta salad, carrot chips, blueberries, 2 mini banana cream pies and strawberry fruit twist.

Day 165

Yesterday I was surfing the net looking at bentos when I came across Keeley McGuire's blog.  She totally inspired me to show D the love today <3.

D has cookie dough dip and honey wheat pretzels, chicken/apple sausage hearts, the cut outs from her mini pancakes, mini pancakes with creamcheese and strawberry jam and grape tomato hearts.

Day 164

164, I only have a pic of the snack that goes along with D's lunch.  I put it together last night knowing that I was going to give her left over baked macaroni and cheese in her thermos.  So really nothing to see there.  Her snack is honey wheat sticks, cookie dough dip and apple slices.

I got an amazing deal today!  I have been wanting to get D a Laptop Lunch box for the longest time.  I just couldn't bring myself to spend the money on one.  They are just sooooo expensive!  Today I was at Whole Foods and I saw they had one marked for $21.99.  I figured I'd never get a better price than that so I talked myself into buying it.  When I got to the register is rung up at $24.99.  I usually don't pay attention but you can be sure I will now.  I mentioned it to the cashier that it had rung up at $3 more than it was marked.  Well imagine my surprise when she said "I'm so sorry about that, but now I need to tell you that you get this item for free.  It is Whole Food's policy that if the item rings up at the wrong price, you get it for free."  She totally made my day!  I would have been happy to just have been credited the $3!

Day 163

163 D has lunch meat sushi, sugar snap peas, pineapples, yogurt covered raisins and cinnamon/sugar pretzels.

Day 162

161- I'm working an epic fail in the healthy food department today.  I desperately need to hit the grocery store.  So D has a few ranch chicken wings.  They are just sprinkled with ranch dressing seasoning.  Then she has some pineapple chunks.  I also gave her a few whole grain bread sticks on the side.
