Breakfast:
We had Cheerios and raisins with milk.

Morning Snack:
My oldest had Teddy Grahams and/or whole grain Goldfish at school.  My youngest and I were in the throes of errand-running and grocery shopping, so we settled for an early lunch date with Daddy.

Lunch:
The hubby, my youngest and I ate at California Pizza Kitchen for an event that gives proceeds to Komen for the Cure.  The hubby and I split a shrimp scampi pizza and a piece of their red velvet cake.  My youngest had their mac and cheese with edamame.
My oldest had honey wheat pretzel sticks with peanut butter and raisins - it was definitely time for Mommy to do her weekly grocery shopping!  :-)

Afternoon Snack:
We had the pleasure of having a friend's sweet daughter with us, so we had a treat at a local allergy-free (hooray!!) bakery.  Each kiddo had a football-shaped cookie with the theme of our local college team, an oatmeal raisin cookie (because they were still hungry), part of my double chocolate chip muffin (Super yum!  You must try it if you ever visit there!), and split a blackberry Izze.  Yes, I then took them to a park to allow them to burn all of that sugar!  :-)

Dinner:
We had California Pizza Kitchen again (For the Cure!), with our sweet little friend, and her Mommy, who was able to join us.  The kiddos all had some sort of kiddo pizza.  My hubby had a caesar salad with chicken (and "with extra dressing on the side" - always!) and I had a half Cobb salad with beets added (you have to request them there because some people are finiky about beets).  My oldest ate her entire pizza, so she was able to have the 99 cent kiddo fruit cup.  Fun, affordable, and healthy dessert!  Score!

Breakfast:
We had Cheerios with raisins and milk.

Morning Snack:
My youngest and I had Cheez-Its and Oreos at school, and my oldest had her usual of Teddy Grahams and/or whole grain Goldfish.

Lunch:
We had a combination of "oval crackers", lunch meat rolls, sliced colby jack cheese, and peaches. 

Afternoon Snack:
Didn't happen.  :-)

Dinner:
We had tacos (soft and crunchy) with refried beans, sauteed onions and red & green peppers, and "sushi sopapillas."

Here's my recipe for Sushi Sopapillas:
Ingredients:
Tortilla
Butter (I like to use Land O Lakes Spreadable Butter with Canola Oil)
Honey
Cinnamon

Spread butter on one side of a tortilla.  Drizzle buttered tortilla with honey and then sprinkle with cinnamon.  Roll the tortilla up and microwave for ~35 seconds, until warm.  Slice into rounds.  Viola!  Sushi Sopapillas!
