Plan Lunch Box Menus Ahead for Sandwiches That Do the Job

Iowa State College nutritionists advise planning weekly lunch box menus with a dedicated making center and ready gear. Gather wax paper, containers, napkins, bread knife, paring knife, spatulas, bowls, spoons, salt, pepper, and nonrefrigerated staples. Include protein rich fillings like cheese meat eggs fish and chicken to pair with bread proteins for complete amino acids. Freeze sandwiches to extend freshness, using peanut butter cheddar American cream cheese and sliced or ground meats. avoid egg salad and mayonnaise for freezing. Store frozen sandwiches up to a week in fridge and thaw about an hour before serving. label breads freeze well and wrap each sandwich separately to prevent flavor mingling. Plan two sandwiches per child under 12 and four to five for active older kids plus milk fruit vegetables and a simple dessert for balanced lunches.

Leaves Turn Street Into Colorful Hazard Tale

In late October a maple tree drops leaves that blanket the street creating a soft colorful carpet. Moisture under the leaves makes the surface slick and a speeding car loses control hitting a fire hydrant. Neighbors’ children then play in the deep leaf piles along the curb.

Leaf Pile Fire Endangers Child in Street

A driver veered at the curb to miss a child buried in leaves beneath a maple heavy with fallen foliage. Moments later a woman gathered leaves into a pile by the curb and set them ablaze, smoke obscuring vision for about 50 feet as a parked car sat nearby in the smoke.

Maple tree threat looms over town as fire rages

Children fled from the smoke and ran through the street while drivers stumbled in confusion. The maple tree, fed by human carelessness, posed a sudden death threat to the town as flames consumed it.
