Lunch: a slightly less successful tamago omelet (I tinkered with the recipe, and added too much oil to my pan) in heart and birdie shapes, topped with American cheese to cover up the slap-dash tamago. It tasted fine, but didnt hold its shape as well as the last batch. Strawberries in heart shapes, peaches in flower shapes, and Cheerios. (I know - O's seem like a lame lunch item, but the boy has been begging for them lately).
Snack: more heart strawberries, tamago heart, Annie's bunny pretzels.
Snack: hearts, cheese with cute flower picks, more
bunnyzels.
YumLunch?
All gone - but... This was
not enough food. For a second I wondered as I was packing it all up, and now it seems more obvious looking at the snap shots from this morning. Insert appropriate maternal guilt
here.
Consequently, Boy very hungry and less than cooperative by the time our family sat down to celebrate my husband's and my wedding anniversary.
Thank you to the patient staff at
Fin Sushi who did not bat an eye, when we asked for a small soy sauce container filled with water so my son could water-paint his anniversary card. Nor did they flinch when we asked for more napkins, more chopsticks, more rice, more napkins, more napkins again, please, and would they please be so kind as to box pretty much everything we ordered for the boy.
Thanks also to my wonderful husband who kindly and patiently explained to our son why he shouldn't sing at the top of his lungs, rock and dance like a person with no spine, and why laying like a drunk frat boy, on the shared bench seating, so that his feet were touching the couple seated next to us - well, why that was in bad form.
Thank you also, kind husband, for cupcakes, milk, pie, clean dishes, banjo music, putting tired boy to bed, cuddles, helping with snacks and other morning chaos. Also, thanks for constantly exposing me to funny pop culture things that I would otherwise miss, and making me laugh every day.
