I planned of staying at home the whole day today. There are lots of catching up to do. Mostly paperworks. But during breakfast my sons reminded me of their nutrition month celebration tomorrow. That means I have to go to the grocery and buy the ingredients they needed for tomorrow's occasion. They will be having a contest on the most nutritious food. Every grade level was grouped into two's. The grade IV class will prepare the morning snacks, lunch for grade V class, and afternoon snacks for the grade VI class.

I asked my son if he has something in mind on what food will he and his classmate will prepare. He said that he has no idea. That means that I still have to choose something that is nutritious and easy to prepare. My 9-year old Raymund doesn't even visit the kitchen! My gosh, how could he and his friend win? "Mom, it's just a play", he said.

I decided to teach him how to make an egg sandwich. I also taught him on the right presentation. Oh, egg is nutritious! Mixed with pineapple tidbits and mayo, it tastes great! Actually he was able to finish everything that we prepared. I just hope he can do it on his own tomorrow. I'm feeling nervous!

The day is almost through and I haven't started yet with my scheduled work. Really, how time flies so fast.
