'Slug' noodle lunchbox


Yesterday morning Lily woke up and said, "I want tofu in my lunchbox today."
"OK," I replied.
"With broccoli and zucchini," she added.
"OK. Would you like rice or noodles with that?" I asked.
"Noodles. You know mama; noodles are like slugs," she said.
"I guess they are kind of like slugs. And broccoli is like trees, isn't it?" I replied.
"Yes. And zucchini is like fish."

Mmm...

Anyway, so I put udon noodles in her lunchbox with broccoli, zucchini, cauliflower and tofu; and I popped in some watermelon and rockmelon to round things out.

All up it was a very successful lunchbox. It came home completely empty, except for a little pile of tofu in the corner. The tofu I used was left over from our Vietnamese take-away the night before and I have to admit that it didn't look very appetising cold... Next time I'll put in some freshly cooked tofu from the fridge.
