Poor Molly can't win. She is just over that awful stomach flu and now she has a cough and cold. She looks terrible and all I can do is just give her lots of love. I think that when your child is sick, it eats away at you as a parent. So, we'll see what the morning brings for our favorite 1st grader and whether she'll eat lunch at home or at school. Say a little prayer for her that she gets well and stays well.
Our main entrée is a "tea sandwich". Molly's Grammy picked up some Irish soda bread for our family and since Molly really likes it, we figured that it would be a nice comfort food for her. We spread cinnamon honey butter on the two slices to keep them moist.
Our fruit side is a kiwi and a clementine. These both have a sweet and tart flavor that will both taste great and feel great on Molly's sore throat.
Our vegetable side is a yellow bell pepper. A nice crunch with a mild flavor.
Our dessert/dairy side is Dannon Light and Fit vanilla yogurt. Molly requested this because she said it will help her tummy feel better.
Finally, we added a cheddar and mozzarella cheese stick to add some protein to Molly's lunch. We're not sure if she'll even eat it but just in case, we decided to add it.
