For many of us just the sight of a lunch box brings back reels of memory tape of our elementary school days. I remember every fall getting a new metal lunch box with a coordinating thermos inside. I loved my Dukes of Hazard lunch box. It was so cool. My mom put milk in the thermos, peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a banana or cookie for dessert. Often she would write Love, Mom or a smiley face on the napkin. Ah, good times. As a homeschool mom I don't send my six year old daughter off to school everyday with her lunch in tow but old habits die hard and I still buy her a new lunch box every fall. The thermos comes separately now and there is more variety to choose from Various styles and colors. Soft sided, plastic, old school tin . The thrill is still there. Sometimes she packs a lunch in her horsey lunch box to go to her Grandma's or puts toys in it if we are going on a road trip. She loves her lunch boxes. Guess she gets that from me.
