Okay, so I know it’s been FOREVER since I’ve posted a bento pic, but I just had to share this one! This was made midweek; I even forgot to take pictures the first two days. My teenage son was volunteering as a day camp counselor this week, driving up the mountain every day to be with the kids, and today was his last day.
Unlike before, he doesn’t seem excited about the lunches I make. He’s become quite picky lately…
I made a BLTAC sandwich (BLT with cheese and avocado), strawberries, and a chocolate cream puff from Paris Baguette that I specially bought for him. Personally, I think it’s a great lunchbox, but to my surprise, he brought the strawberries and the chocolate cream puff back home without eating them! So frustrating!
Remember when they used to eat everything in sight? Now, it’s like pulling teeth to get them to finish their food. “No time,” he says. “I wasn’t hungry,” he says. Give me a break!
Also, the potato chips in the picture were originally packed in the lunch bag, but just to be sure, I asked him, ‘Do you want chips?’ He responded with a quick ‘No,’ so I took them out. It seems like whenever I ask, his default answer is ‘No,’ so maybe I shouldn’t have asked!
