Does a Pumpkin Pick Make it Spooky?

I am so overwhelmed on all fronts this week. Work is stressful and I do not have enough time to do it and at the same time I feel the strongest pull to be with my kiddos this week. I am ridden with mommy guilt but....one foot in front of the other. This is lunch...not a super one but better than what they are serving in the cafeteria:)



Both Thomas and Stella have peanut butter in mini pita's, some raw veggies, mandarin oranges and two bat cookies.

Witchy Plums

Both Thomas and Stella have the same lunch for tomorrow. They have a pumpkin shaped turkey sandwich with a cheese cut out to make it orange, a plum, some grape kabobs and two ghost cookies.

Here are my last lunches for the week. Tomorrow all three kiddos are going to visit Papa and Gigi and I am going to spend time with two of my BFF's. Two overnight trips in two weeks....Wow!!

Pizza Pockets

My lunches are getting posted a bit late tonight because I was mesmerized by the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion. I couldn't stop watching that train wreck!

One of my friend, Shannon, posted this great idea and I am stealing it today. I made pizza pockets (?), mini calzones (?)...not sure what to call them but I am happy with how they turned out. I rolled out a pizza crust, cut it into six pieces, filled it with sauce and mozzarella cheese, sealed the edges and bake.


Stella has a pizza pocket, sliced cucumbers, some berries and shortbread cookies.

Stuffed Biscuits

Yay! One week of lunches down!! I did a little baking tonight. I made some turkey and cheese stuffed biscuits, some homemade chocolate chip cookies and some corn muffins. I was able to make my grilled peppers with goat cheese for a side dish tonight and we had two halves left over. I diced the peppers and cheese and mixed them right in with my corn muffins. Dee-lish!
