Ever since we got married, I've been packing my husband a lunch every day. Some people find that sweet and endearing. Others find it control freak-esque. Fortunately my husband is in the former...at least that's what he tells me.
I usually pack the same lunch for both of us, only his portions are larger. I try to make it balanced- good proteins, healthy fats, and of course healthy carbs- often in the form of an apple.
But now- for THIRTY DAYS straight- this apple has gone uneaten.
After the first few days of being ignored, I figured that my husband just wasn't hungry for it. So I started packing a little bit less food in accordance.
Nope. Didn't work. How dare he ignore my healthy apple!
The passive-agressive continuous re-packing gave rise to this more creative approach. But of course he's not going to eat an apple with Sharpie all over it...I hope. So I packed a smaller apple too. One for humor, one for eats.
As soon as he got home I opened up his lunch tote to see if my ploy worked...
Success!
