Day 11: Spaghetti Galore


We're teaming up with fellow food bloggers to host a Brown-Bag Challenge, a month-long initiative to eat consciously and save money by packing a lunch each weekday instead of eating out. Join us here and share what you're eating on Facebook andTwitter with the hashtag #brownbag.


It's Spaghetti Day for us. This is the first time my son brought spaghetti to school with shredded cheese topping.  Have to cut noodles shorter. About 1/2 an inch for a mess-free lunch. So he need not worry about tomato stain on his lips the whole day. I gave him grapes to snack on it when he's still hungry, or for afternoon recess. My boy has better appetite nowadays. I guess having variation in daily brown-bagging did the trick. It seems like he's more excited to take his lunch to school than me.  My hubby took the same with salad on the side.

It's the last day for Week 3, and I'm glad I was able to fulfill the lunches for the whole week stress-free. I'm looking forward for the coming week...actually this week since I posted this late.  I had a busy Friday and weekend.  I had a take-home work from my daughter's preschool, then we went to Universal Studios Hollywood.  And that's the exact reason why I wasn't able to publish this blog on a timely manner. I apologize for that.  But I'd still make it to the Tuesday's Round-Up anyways.

Happy brown-bagging!!
