Hi everyone! Here is the new home of Life of a Foodie - Miss V's School Lunches. I have had many comments about how much food I pack in her lunches and why do I do that. Well Miss V is usually starving after school and we have anywhere from a 20 to 30 minute commute home. Also on certain days she has activities after school and by over packing her lunch she is sure to have plenty to snack on after school.

As for the peanut butter....if you are a peanut butter lover, you should really check out Peanut Butter & Company.  We have tried all of them except the Heat Is On.  I can't find it in stores down here.  I bet it would make an excellent peanut sauce for Thai foods.  I also have made peanut butter cookies with some of them and wow, what an nice change of pace.
