The girl child had a similar sandwich using meat instead of the hummus and a second sandwich of PB&J the boy had him some sort of similar meat sandwich without the tomato and both packed apples to go with it. The boy also warmed up the leftover Spanish rice from the other night and packed it in a soup thermos.
The husband refused to pack a lunch and is taking advantage of a light lunch provided at the church before his meeting at the church before heading out to do some after hours support work for his job. As last night he got a call from a client that called us home early from our concert and he still needs to finish up at the office, because out internet service is going wacky. I think they are just trying to sell us an upgrade since the slowing of our internet happened the same day we got the ads to try and sell us the upgraded service at a discounted rate. Well, we are not committing to a 2 year contract since we are hoping to move within 6 months so nyeh!
Dinner is in the crock pot and is a simple potato leek soup. I used the last 2 leeks, several of the yellow potatoes we got from the co-op last week and nearly 2 boxes of the Hearty Vegetable Broth from Trader Joe's and enough water to cover and put my big 7 qt crock pot on low to cook for the day. At dinner time I will blend in the Vitamix and add salt and pepper to taste. Maybe some thyme as well. I think I have a bit of fresh thyme left over.
I would like to take this moment to state that my crock pot, my vitamix and my rice cooker are the most wonderful things in the world. I know I am not supposed to be attached to things, but I really really like these things. With these 3 items, I could probably live without a stove if I had to. Okay my toaster oven would help too.
