Breakfast: Today I had to drive and had no Jason so the kids had to be ready entirely by 7:20. Cressida had toast with butter made from church bread - I thought we had gotten through it all last week and was amazzed becuase there had been a lot even with all the giving away that we did. I had a toasted church bagel. The cream cheese had gone bad, so we bothjust had butter. Cressida only ever wanted butter anyway.
Daitarih and Phyllis were supposed to have leftover oatmeal or leftover rice. Phyllis had a couple bites and said, "The oatmeal tastes funny." Dai had just poured milk on her rice cereal, so I scooped a little in a spoon and gagged when I tasted it. It is one of those things that make you keep gagging even after you have spit it out, too. So they had rice cereal with butter and cinnamon and sugar, instead. The "best by" date was still two days away, but clearly it was not good anymore.
Lunch: I made all three lunches before I went which made me proud. All three had ham sandwiches on church bread. All three also had CSA bell peppers (Phyllis and Cress split one and Dai had a whole) and CSA green beans. Cressida had CSA beets. Phyllis had some leftover pineapple from the can we used for the cookies yesterday. Dai had a CSA apple. I didn't pack a lunch for me. I just ate stuff there - but it was all sugary and not good for me. I had pineapple when I got home.
After school snack: Cressida had pineapple. I offered the girls string cheese but they passed.
Dinner: We had tomato sandwiches on toasted church bread. We needed to use up the CSA tomatoes (two had gone south already) and it helped us use up more church bread.
Prep ahead: I made steel cuts oats in the crock pot. The recipes called for various dried fruits - we did diced dates and diced apricots. We shall see. I hope the girls like it.
