Only 2 bento so far this week; I ended up sending a laptop lunchbox instead one day because his lunchbox got left in the car and I didn’t have a chance to get it washed and ready to go in time.  Today was his pre-picked hot lunch day.  (I’ve been letting Kidlet pick up to one hot lunch a week, although he generally picks only one every other week or so.  On a morning I was rushed and late I tried to get him to do a hot lunch once and he said “No, Mom, I know how much you like making my special lunches” lol).

I wanted to do a fancy cheese design lunch for tomorrow; the last before V-Day, but I’m not sure that will come together.  Tomorrow is thier “Friendship” party, and I am volunteering for that.  I’ll be running the craft table.  They’ll be making special cards — I’m cutting card stock to size, then cutting out windows in the front and gluing down clear contact paper sheets.  They’ll be making a collage with various tissue papers, glitter, ribbons, etc, and then covering it with another sheet of contact paper to seal it. Along the same lines as the Frank Lloyd Wright window pane art that I did for the last art literacy presentation, but without the extra cardstock strips that represented the metal bits.

I’m only about half done with the prep for that.  I’m also supposed to log in to WoW tonight for a group event that takes about 3 hours.  I had told the group that I really don’t like to play on Thursday ever (it’s my one real TV night.  Even with DVR, I like to watch my shows ASAP) and normally they don’t, but there is new content to conquer so they are running extra days.

So I don’t think I will have any extra time to do anything really fancy tonight.  Mornings are self limiting — 20 minutes is the max I can take with his lunches, which isn’t enough time to do anything really complicated.

Hope everyone has a great evening!
