We had a wonderful weekend. Started of with the Great Strides Walk for Cystic Fibrosis. Our small walk raised over 25,000$! Thanks to all that donated!
Team Taylor!

Then we went to a cast party for the Hubby and Stinkerbell. They did some community theater earlier this month. That was when I was lucky enough to score a couple bushels of apples. So today I made Apple Honey Pie. The house smells so good. I cant wait to dig into it.

I got the recipe here. Finding Joy in My Kitchen http://joyinmykitchen.blogspot.com/2009/11/apple-honey-pie.html I have tried many of her recipes an I am never disappointed.

Now on to today's lunch.

First day of Fall....and it's going to be in the 90's today. You will not hear me complain, cause winter will be here before you know it. I HATE SNOW & COLD! (and I live in Ohio so we get both) So I do not complain when it's hot.

Lunch for the 1st grader

Trader Joe's pirate booty, cranberry sauce, transportation shaped ham and cheese sandwich's, a babybel cheese round, and 3 sour gummy worms.

Lunch for the 11th grader

Peanut Puffs, 2 homemade brownie bites, pickle and cream cheese wrapped in ham, and a Fruit Squeeze. We have never tried these but they are all natural and I can pronounce all of the ingredients, so we will see what the verdict is later today on whether or not we have them again.

I finally made it to the grocery store yesterday. So we now have fresh fruit and veggies in the house.

Lunch for the 1st grader

Trader Joe's pirate booty, the last of the mandarin oranges, transportation shaped ham and cheese sandwich's  (he stepped out of the PB&J box), and a homemade brownie bite


Lunch for the 11th grader

A banana with peanut butter and honey wrapped in a tortilla, sourdough pretzels, Trader Joe's cat cookies. and some fresh strawberries.
I will be linking up to the "What's for Lunch" Wednesday for the first time today.

It has been so hard for me to get back in the swing of things after vacation. I still have not made it to the grocery, have to get that done today. Had to go to the dentist yesterday to have two teeth worked on then took Stinker-bell to the C.F. clinic. She got a good report, even though she has a barky cough right now. Her PFT's (pulmonary function test) were 69-71%, which are up a little and she gained .3 kilos (.66 lbs). The doctor said her lungs sound really good for the cough she has right now. He put her on some Bactrim for the bark. Next appointment she will have another blood glucose test. She was diagnosed in April with CFRD (cf related diabetes), but at the time was not bad enough to have to be treated for it. So we have to keep an eye on it.  She has not been in the hospital since April, that's a record for her.

Lunch for the 1st grader

Trader Joe's pirate booty, mandarin oranges, PB&J sandwich (new sandwich cuter. bird, flower,heart, and fish) and fruit crisp bar.

Lunch for the 11th grader

Trader Joe's cat cookies, cheddar cheese rice snacks, pickle and cream cheese wrapped in ham, and some pineapple.

Back From Disney World

 We are back from Disney World. The kids had so much fun, lots of family bonding. But, now we are back to the real world of dentist and doctor appointments and grocery shopping all of which I have to do today.
 The kids head back to school today which means I had to pack a healthy lunch for them. It was hard to do with very little food in the house.

Lunch for the 1st grader

Pineapple, fruit crisp bar, PB&J sandwich in the shape of Mickey Mouse (I had to cut him in half so he would fit, now he looks like a turtle) and some cheddar cheese rice snacks.

Lunch for the 11th grader

Pineapple, trail mix, PB&J pinwheels, multi-grain crackers with laughing cow cheese spread.

Stinker-bell got a few new lunch box items while we were at Disney World (could not find boy ones).

We picked this up in Japan in Epcot. It comes with a fork and spoon. The only thing I don't like about it is it is just one big box. I like compartments.

We picked this up at one of the many Disney stores. I like this one because it has gel in it so you can put it in the freezer and it will keep food cold.
