Happy Monday! We had a jam-packed week filled with fun, I hope you did as well!
We had family and friends in town visiting all week, a few BBQ's, a concert, a crawfish boil and even a tornado warning! Never a dull moment!
Here's what I packed in the lunchboxes this week:
Here's what I packed in the lunchboxes this week:
Monday: Tortellini Pasta Salad, mushrooms and carrots with Ranch, flatbread and sunflower seeds with dried cranberries
Tuesday: Grilled Chicken Sandwich on a Whole Wheat bun, baby carrots and bell pepper slices and Bunny Grahams

On Saturday, we hosted the office crawfish boil for the 5th year in a row! We had a TON of food and I was exhausted on Sunday from all of it, but we had a great time! The day before, when I was doing the massive grocery run I somehow scratched my cornea in the middle of HEB and had to have my mom drive me straight to the eye doctor so I was a little frazzled and didn't get a ton of pictures of the food that day, but here's the rundown of what we served:
Beer, Wine, Margaritas, Iced Tea, Sodas and Juice Boxes
Boiled Crawfish with mushrooms, sausage, corn, potatoes and garlic
bacon wrapped jalapeno peppers stuffed with Cajun sausage
