My daughter was to stay back in school for an extra 45 mins on Tuesday and I thought why not she just get food from the school canteen. She agreed and I thought that way end of the story.
She told me that morning before going to school that she didn't want to eat in school after all and asked if I could her sandwiches instead.
I said it's fine as long as she doesn't make requests on for the sandwiches since I didn't go the the supermarket or wet market during the weekends and there isn't really much ingredients to work with. ( eg, I used luncheon meat instead of the usual ham for the ears and 'cheeks'.)
She ended up with one of her favourite, Egg Mayo Sandwiches. Lazy mum ... doesn't really want to squeeze my brain juice. Not really not very good with last minute requests either. So, never can go wrong with Egg Mayo where making my daughter's sandwich is concerned. Hahaha ....
This is probably the last lunch box of this school term, which means, no more after school programmes 'cos examinations are coming. :P This also means, I will have to find time to post the recipes that I meant to share but didn't have the time to do it. Got to wake up those lazy bones. :P
I did this lunchboxes for both my kids last week.
They are always at loggerheads, always fighting and arguing with each other. Even the food they like to eat are opposite of each other.
One love the tuna sandwich and the other love the egg mayo sandwich but they both hated the other. This is just one of the many food they hated and loved. =_=||
Since I had to prepared both their lunchboxes in a short time (cos I wasted time day dreaming :P), I decided to just prepared simple sandwiches. One for the "cat" and one for the "dog", cos they are just like them. :P But they there are times that they do get along. Some of the 'times".
Today's lunchbox for the little one consist of her favourite Saute Button Mushrooms and Eggroll with Fishpaste. I want her to try eating Broccoli hence I packed only 2 florets (so she has no excuse not to finish them) instead of her usual favourite veggies.
As usual, mum want to have a little fun packing lunchbox, so I steamed a little rice with blue pea flowers to make a simple Doraemon's head. The eyes are made from egg white, which I saved a little from the eggroll. The pupils and whiskers are seaweed. The nose is crabstick, also taken from the eggroll.
Hmm ... I think I might have packed too much rice for her. :P
