School Dinners

Last year I had the pleasure of eating my first school dinner in over 25 years as Joshua's foundation class had a parents dinner date. Tina missed out last year as she was at work. Today the roles were reversed as Tina got to attend Brandon's foundation class dinner date whilst I was at work.

Apparently the menu today was BBQ chicken with rice, peas and sweetcorn. Then a side salad with chocolate mousse and/or raisins for pudding. It sounds like B pretty much ate his chicken and cucumber and that was about it! I am amazed he didn't touch the chocolate!

We generally let the two boys have school dinners once a week and Brandon usually picks "Fishy Friday". Joshua tends to look through the weekly menu and chooses what day he would prefer based on what he likes/fancies. They both seem to really enjoy having school dinners as a change from packed lunch which they have 4 days a week. I find it hard to imagine B having a school dinner and standing in line picking what food he wants, then carrying it back to his table and tucking in with his class mates - how cute. Not sure I would trust him carrying a tray of food at home though!.
