Tomato Cucumber Sandwiches!! Made with Rudi’s Organic Bakery Kids Soft White Bread! The perfect sized bread for little hands! These are so easy to make and so delicious! If you grew up eating tomato sandwiches, you know how good this is!!!
There are days as a mother where I feel like I can do nothing right.
I’m tired, the kids act up and I raise my voice, I forget that it’s school spirit day and my kid is the only one in her class that shows up without her blue school t-shirt on (this happened last year but she still remembers), or I tell the kids I will take them out for yogurt or ice cream but then I run out of time and we don’t go.
Some days I wish I could do over .. but instead of looking back, I try to look forward and take each new day as it comes.
Surprisingly, since school started, I’ve been feeling pretty good about everything. Meet the teacher night went great (we are all super excited for this school year), the first day of school was great, I successfully got the kids enrolled in swimming lessons, Girl Scouts (Daisies for Madeline) and ballet! The ballet classes were the hardest . . who waits until the week before classes are about to start to sign their kids up? Um, me. And who was so thankful that we got into classes that fit into our after school schedule? Me!!!
My kids continue to surprise me when it comes to food. Phoebe is a little more adventurous (um, hello 
Last month, we tried

As a food blogger who is a mother, you can imagine how many lunch containers I own. I am going to (hopefully soon) put together a post outlining some of my favorites and why (pros and cons) etc. regarding some lunch containers so please stay tuned for that post!
In this post, I used 
For us, using these containers separately (and then having them all placed into my kids’ lunch bags) has been working for us!
I’m in Seattle today for a trip with Stemilt Farms. We’ll be traveling to see their pear and apple orchards in Washington so follow along on social media (snapchat, Instagram stories, yes, I am still doing both; why am I still doing both?) to see all the fun. I’m there until Friday and heading back home on Saturday so it’s sure to be a fun filled week!!

Alice, you are NOT alone on feeling less-than in the mom department sometimes. I often get distracted and don’t give my kids full attention, or I also raise my voice, or I forget to sign them up for things, or I’m never at their school because my work hours are the same as their school hours. I could just throw up my hands and feel bad, or I could tell myself that I am doing the best that I can and focus on what’s going well. Both of us love our kids like crazy, and we’re doing it right. The parents who don’t do it right probably never worry about it.
And I wish my kids were adventurous eaters, but just one out of three will try anything. I’ve gotta find this bread, because they will ALL eat that!
I’m not a parent, but I know that it can be so challenging at times! You sound like such a kind and caring mom, Alice! Your daughters are lucky to have you! And I’m sure they adored these cute sandwiches! Such a fun combination!
These look really nice! Yum

Oh wow you are in Seattle?! Have fun Alice. I wish we could meet, my schedule is so super packed right now and also I am travelling tomorrow! Anyway next time hopefully! love these sandwiches, mom used to make something similar when we were kids!
Mm sometimes simple is best. Love veggie sandwiches, and the bread looks amazing! Don’t be too hard on yourself Alice, mothering is not for the faint of heart and you are doing a great job. Your daughter may look back and always remember the day you put her in the wrong shirt, but she will ALSO remember all the fun family time you guys had, and that balances everything out 🙂
From a dad perspective; I’ve had days like this too. I’m loving the wholesome quality of Rudi’s bread. And Alice, your girls couldn’t be more adorable.
This is actually one of my favourite sandwiches, and it was when I was a kid too. Sometimes simple is best when it comes to a sandwich.
Oh to look forward to those days…. 😉 I am not a parent yet, but I do know that every parent has those days. I also know that you are a very kind and loving mom, so even those days when you feel like you can’t do anything right, I know that at the heart of things you really you are. For those crazy days, simple is best, just like this sandwich. It looks and sounds like the perfect light lunch.
I am so glad the start of the school year is going well. I can imagine how hectic it is. This sandwich will look great in my lunch bag too 🙂
Look at those gorgeous tomatoes and that nice fluffy bread… this is my dream lunch!
