[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get up 1.25 hours before school starts, but that also includes time for me to shower and get ready for work, make coffee, feed the cats, etc.

Our hot breakfast is something fast like toast, fried or scrambled eggs, pancakes from a just-add-water mix, frozen waffles. Bacon and sausage take to long and make too much of a mess, but if I have some left over from the weekend I'll reheat them.

Lunch is usually reheated.  Dinner leftovers, or I cook a pound of pasta on Sunday and reheat portions each morning. In a pinch, angel hair pasta cooks in two minutes - I can do that while getting breakfast ready.

We rinse dishes so the food doesn't get stuck on, but don't fully wash them. They get washed after work or with that night's dinner dishes. [/quote]

+1 I get as much as I can done the night before (water bottles, other items besides main entree in lunch bag ready to go, snack in backpack, schedule reminders etc.). I leave before my husband and kids so I leave any dishes in the sink and my husband unloads the clean dishwasher from the night before and loads dirty dishes in. I get up so early more for me, I like the quiet time. Breakfasts are super simple more times than not because my kids leave insanely early for school and they're not super hungry that early in the morning. No way I could a some gourmet meal on a weekday. The weekends, they eat like kings lol [/quote]
