[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really want this thread to make it 30 pages like someone predicted :)

If I were to truly spur-of-the-moment invite someone with kids over for a homemade lunch, I could reliably offer:
- tomato soup & grilled cheese sandwiches
- PB&J or AB&J
- egg sandwiches on a bagel or bagel & cream cheese
- various vegetables & hummus/tzatziki
- apples/bananas/clementines/berries
- fruit smoothies with or without yogurt

I guess buttered noodles would also be on that list (or noodles + red sauce), but it wouldn't occur to me to offer that ahead of those other options. One of my two kids would devour a bowl of pasta, the other would only eat a few bites.

Congratulations on your grocery run I guess?

It's not that the OP has no other food in the house but for this impromptu/casual "let's keep this playdate going" many moms that are also keeping an eye on their kid and talking to their friend and maybe clearing off the table and counter etc. are not going to spend a ton of time washing, chopping, cooking etc. I'm the frozen pizza PP above. So glad my mom friends are more relaxed than this chain. It's like serving pizza at a kid bday - is it the best and most balanced nutritious meal ever? No but it's easy and adults often grab a slice too.[/quote]
