They all used my Ikea plates. But now I have a huge stash of disposables, and no occasion to use them again until her birthday next year (unless we do another Easter bash... I should post about that!)Ludicrous Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808367296847075643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1176009278173215772.post-48279806032843104072010-08-16T04:16:31.548-07:002010-08-16T04:16:31.548-07:00Would it be more affordable to buy a supply of IKE...Would it be more affordable to buy a supply of IKEA plates/knives/forks etc and wash them between each outing?SchrefflerFamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250571296052594274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1176009278173215772.post-16675142337475361402010-08-11T10:10:42.567-07:002010-08-11T10:10:42.567-07:00I get effusive thanks, and many wide eyed "Ar...I get effusive thanks, and many wide eyed "Are you CRAZY?!" looks. I also charge $2 per kid. So far I haven't broken even, but I get to keep the leftovers, or roll them into a future class. So hopefully I'll get to spend a little less when I won't need to buy more plates/knives/forks/etc.<br />It's hard to guesstimate how much the food will cost when I'm sending out the invite weeks before I'm buying the food!<br /><br />I like to make the cheese tortillas in the oven (on broil apparently. Be sure to turn both dials to broil. See my Mision Imposible post!) I like the crispy edges.Ludicrous Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17808367296847075643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1176009278173215772.post-58882345642749760262010-08-11T06:23:54.475-07:002010-08-11T06:23:54.475-07:00Oh!

(And I think I'll sneak the link to this post to my friend who might want to do it with her childcare kiddos too!)<br /><br />As for tortillas -- too bad there are no HEBs up there. They make the BEST tortillas. and very affordable too. (though not whole wheat I don't think)<br /><br />My sister taught me how to make cheese tortillas after I moved down here. You put shredded cheese on the tortilla, microwave it for 20 seconds or so (Varies by # of tortillas you are doing at once and your microwave) and you've got a quick, fast snack. This is also where I learned about HEB tortillas!<br /><br />I hope your fellow mommies appreciate how much money, time, and effort you are putting into these park lunches1MommyLydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15608956553350425075noreply@blogger.com
