ailbhe1) No Weetabix, oatcakes for breakfast, much snarking
2) Picnic: Noodles in curry and veg stock, omelette, 50-minute bread, cherries, apples, stewed rhubarb, chocolate spread, tub of mixed tropical fruit.
3) Dinner for the bike event: Cold stuffed roast pork tenderloin (Rob put ginger on it, then sliced apple, then stuffing, and rolled it up and roasted it), fresh broad beans (they really do vanish to nothing when depodded), some kind of long thin cabbage. The veg was mostly warm when we ate it, too. For dessert we had stewed rhubarb and the children shared the last little bit of chocolate cake made earlier in the week. Oh, and we had some of the other loaf of bread.
Tomorrow, only lunches. Pork and stuffing again, with couscous and fried onions, I think, and tomato and cucumber, possibly in a dressing, if I can think of one.
Thursday, need to think of something. Risotto?
Friday is hardest of all, because of flying - I think perhaps a veg stir-fry again, because that's easiest to make and transport. We'll also need a lot of treat-snacky foods, like cupcakes or muffins and cashews and raisins, to tide us over Difficult Moments such as arise when travelling way past children's bedtimes.
And after that packed lunches become hard work, because of not being at home.
