I love using the Planetbox Launch lunchbox when I send leftovers that need to be reheated. Included with the box is a glass dish (with leak proof silicone lid) so food can easily be warmed in a microwave. It’s a great way to send leftover soup to school too.

This was a fun project my son and I worked on to help organize his lego guys. I love this because it serves as a great organization piece but it is also a very cool looking piece of art! It was fairly inexpensive (around $50) but it did take longer than expected because I had to order the 2×2 […]
