Don't Forget Your Lunch & Giveaway

Something I learned after my first year as a school counselor is to take time for yourself during the day. I had a working lunch pretty often until the fabulous art teacher invited to eat lunch with her and sit at a table (not in front of a desk/computer).  How refreshing it was to take a little break for yourself.  Now most days I eat lunch either with students or with other adults in a non-sitting in front of the computer/desk atmosphere.  In a nutshell, school counselors work very hard (just like all educators) but something as small as a non-working lunch a few times a week can make such a big impact on our school sanity.

In honor of back to school season,  I'm doing a giveaway, whoot whoot!  I was actually given two of the same lunch totes and want to share the other with another school counselor. This giveaway is for a Scout lunch tote.  I pack a lunch every day and LOVE fun lunch totes.

Lunch tote, love the pattern & the colors!

What's something simple, easy and quick that you keep in your lunch for work?

Enter below for a chance to win the lunch tote.

  4. I love snacks! And you need a tote to carry all those parts of lunch that I eat between students. I've started making fresh smoothies at home and freezing them in mason jars. Throw it in frozen and its ready to drink by mid-day!

  9. I like to eat the $1 yogurt parfaits from McDonald's, but I make my own version for lunch. Layer any flavor of yogurt with some lightly crushed cereal of your choice along with some frozen fruit. It thaws by lunchtime and you're good to go. I have never outgrown peanut butter and jelly, and I also keep a can of Pringle's in my office along with a few granola bars and peanut M&M's for emergencies!
