Yesterday in the car, Lyle said to me "mum, everyone loves my lunches you make" . I drove home with a massive smile on my face after he told me he opened his lunch and said "cool lunch mum" and everyone wanted to see/eat it :-)

For today I made sandwiches, using a dinosaur cutter, I even cut out the turkey with it too, so it all fitted good. I rummaged in the fridge and used up the last of the cocktail sausages and the southern fried chicken dippers. Couple of leaves of a Chinese lettuce, sliced some cucumbers

Slept in Tuesday's lunch

awoke at 8.17am, not very good when we need to leave the house at 8.45am to make sure we get to school on time.
so todays lunch consists of cocktail sausages, southern fried chicken strips, blob of tomato sauce, grapes, cucumber, grated carrots and some breakfast called chocolate pillows.... orange juice and yogurt.
iced gems (& bottle of water, &a manderin) for playtime.

tonight i hope to make carrot cake to add to tomorrows lunch.

me, i am just about to make some beetroot soup that i got for about 5p a packet in the world of food isle ... i think it is Polish, the instructions are diagrams so cant be too hard to make haha.

Monday lunch for a dreary day.

Lunch time is now taking over nearly all my waking moments. It is all I think about. From what containers do I have, to I absolutely must buy a Bento box (recently bought a hamburger shaped one & can not wait for it to arrive, via amazon.co.UK from Hong Kong!).
I am constantly thinking of what to put in those containers. Last week was sandwiches or bagels, with some fruit and a little sweet...
To start this week off, I used small round crackers/biscuits.3 slices of lime, corriander & chilli chucked, diced, goats cheese sliced and 4 cocktail sausages sliced. These went in silicon cupcake cases and into the 2 small sections of the tub.
In the big space is a small bunch of red grapes and a few chocolate coins.
I added an alpro soya chocolate yogurt to the spiderman lunch bag and then from the car (as half my messages are still their from my Tesco shop at 1am!), I added a carton of Orange juice to complete his lunch.
I am actually jealous!
My lunch will most likely be a plain ham sandwich.

If anyone is interested, his play piece today is a Btl of water with the choice of mini pancakes or a 'pains au chocolat'  or fruit flakes.

Life of Lunches....

Todays Lunch for Lyle was hastily arranged, but still seems good. well i wouldnt be unhappy upon opening this. 

alpro soya chocolate milkshake and yogurt.
Bagel with goats cheese and honey ham.
quarter of cucumber thinly sliced and then quartered.
silicon cupcake case of cheerios and another with blueberries.
each wee segment is wrapped in cling film as the lid isnt flush with the inside, so the food moves about.

I am a little proud of this, considering i havent been proper shopping for over a week!

It finally happened...

<p>One of us took the plunge and called it a day on our relationship. <br>
Thursday 12th July. <br>
A total of 15 months of lies. <br>
Even when we ended he still lied. I didn't call him out on it. I just asked when he was going on holiday, and he insisted he want going, even tho I have seen the payments. I asked if he slept with others, technically he didn't lie at this, as he said I won't hear of him running around, he's correct in that, as he went with ones who stay at least 50miles away from us. <br>
Aw well. </p>
<p>Timing was shit. We where booked for skiing lessons, evening guests at my friends wedding and the Saturday before we ended, he had booked us in to a hotel for one of my best friends wedding. It's booked and paid for. But I won't be able to use it, as I won't have a car to get me their or back. So he has wasted his money.

My son has taken it very badly. Keeps on asking when we will be boyfriend and girlfriend again. Keeps asking to fone him. Go do stuff with him.
