2024 Term 3: Lunchbox 5 . Week 1 of 10 done! I hadn’t planned today’s recess even as of last night. Four days of planning took its toll on me. I decided to simply wake and “see” what I could make. . Then, I remembered that Mr. 13 didn’t need to take anything for recess as he would be released early. I asked if I could pack a snack as a “just in case”. He said ok. Then, I wondered why I asked. I didn’t have any plans yet. And if I had a chance to make just one box, should I not have taken it? . This morning, I found a bag of @godrejyummiez Millet Patties and pan fried 3 of them. I packed two of these with some Tandoori Sauce and made a Cheese Burger with the third. . Today, for recess, Ms. 8 has a Millet Cheese Burger. For snack, Mr. 13 has Millet Patties while Ms. 8 has Oat Cookies, Cherries and a Pain Au Chocolat. . Now I’m in the mood for a proper Amchi lunch. One of the things we did last evening was watch a slideshow of all the food I cooked during the first lockdown. Mr. 13 said, “Amma, I know it feels like we’re eating the same things over and over now, but remember that you had a lot of time because you didn’t have your commute or your travel.” And Ms. 8, not wanting to be left out said, “But now you can make these sometimes, right?” . Yes, my darlings, I think I can. . #raagaslunchboxseries #raaga2024term3 #yummiez #godrejyummiez #burger #cutlet #patty #lunchboxideasforkids #lunchboxideasforschool
