Once they did that - we never turned back. It is now their responsibility to pack lunch. It is my responsibility to buy the stuff on Saturday to go in the lunch. We also stopped using plastic bags. Have you tried these for sandwiches? http://www.wrap-n-mat.com/fabrics.php I haven't yet but plan to this year. There is also a set here: http://www.laptoplunches.com/. I have their book about foods and recipes to pack in lunchboxes. Last year my 5th grader used a cute purse as her lunch box. She can put it in a fridge at school or in her locker, so on days when she had yogurt or cheese she used the fridge.RunningBettyhttp://www.runningbetty.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2103758876428147420.post-18652239861130858332009-06-05T14:06:36.442+10:002009-06-05T14:06:36.442+10:00That is one problem I never have Cathy.

It's a rare day if something does come home...and then they get that for afternoon tea.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511855282323456046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2103758876428147420.post-16010929181385805452009-06-04T22:40:48.216+10:002009-06-04T22:40:48.216+10:00Hello Tracy
