I will certainly keep everyone posted on the success of the Laptop Lunch. Our school really sounds the same as yours. Last year we did an even blend of lunches from home and lunch at school, and the end result was that Abigail preferred Mom's lunches. My only problem with my lunches was that they really became boring and monotonous. And I was getting sucked into the Go-gurt and chip routine as well. I'm really really hopeful that the Laptop Lunch will not only help Abigail to eat a nourishing lunch that will keep her going, but that maybe she will start a lunchroom buzz. That may be asking a lot of a first grader, but I am still hopeful. :-) Thanks for posting Tammy- I hope you have success with revolutionizing lunch time as well.Erika W.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16817539364974864595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11875254.post-1154568659743590612006-08-02T20:30:00.000-05:002006-08-02T20:30:00.000-05:00I'm delurking here today!First let me say that I l...I'm delurking here today!<BR/>First let me say that I love your blog. I love that you share a little touch of your personal life along with recipe successes and sometimes failures and the cute kid pictures.<BR/>I've seen the laptop lunch boxes on other sites and even visited the laptop website. So I'm curious about how it works out for your daughter. I know she doesn't start school until September but would you please keep us posted on how it works. Do things stay cold? Do you send hot foods for her? Is it durable? I am so tired of the unhealthy school lunches and have told my 2 girls(ages 6 and 8)that they will be taking lunch from home this year ALOT! They're ok with that and have always taken lunches some. My friend and I have decided the school was trying to find out how many ways they could prepare breaded chicken and potatoes. They offer few veggies each day and what they do offer most kids won't touch. Or when the students walk up to get their lunch, the workers ask this "would you like french fries OR broccoli?" Well, most kids unfortunately choose french fries. But they're suppose to offer BOTH. And one step further is the broccoli is so overcooked it's like broccoli soup and is quite disgusting. Still not a great nutritional meal.<BR/>Anyway, my girls use a regular lunch box and I buy the thermos that is rather small for hot foods like soups. That gives the girls a change of pace.<BR/>So along with how the new lunchbox works, maybe you'll share a few of your daughter's lunches with us?? Please!!<BR/>Thanks again for sharing your blog!<BR/>Sorry for the ramble....geez...not a good first comment!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11875254.post-1154565222972477722006-08-02T19:33:00.000-05:002006-08-02T19:33:00.000-05:00Wow, I want a laptop lunchbox!!
