We bike to school, (1.4 miles of sidewalks!!!!) and we pack healthy lunches right after we finish eating dinner. I know this will pay off bigtime!!!

I make them in my pressure cooker so all those yummy flavors stay in. My kids won't do canned refried beans, but homemade is a different story - and we have similarly aged kiddos. Sloan is in 1st and Dodge is in Pre-K. Let me know if you want it and I will send you the whole recipe.

What do you put in them to make them yummy? Refried beans are awesome, but I can’t get my kids to eat them even on Taco night. What do you put in them to make them yummy?

My girl doesn't go back until 09/09. Our schedules don't vary much between summer and the school year since both my husband and I work full time. The main difference is going to be getting her back to her "correct" bedtime and re-enforcing the school year rule of no DVDs on school nights. Oh, and I'll have to start making lunches again. Sigh. I live for Wednesday, which is pizza day at her small private school. Your school starts EARLY! My girl doesn’t go back until 09/09.

We have a penchant for unusual names, my son's name is Dodge. I fix my little people refried beans because their high in fiber/protein and beans stick with them all day. :) Plus, a big batch of refried beans doesn't take much work at all and is really cheap!
