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.

To answer your question....yes I do over pack her lunch.  She starts school at 7:55 and lunch is at 11:00 and she gets out at 2:45.  By the time we are on the way home she is snacking on what ever may be left over from lunch because she is starving.
