Did you see the Today Show this morning? The Organised Housewife was on and I couldn’t be prouder that I was asked to be a part of the show and be able to talk about, and share some of my ‘Back to School’ organising tips when it comes to the kids going back to school. It was a great segment, allowing me to discuss my Back to School Routine and share my Checklist. I also got to share my Morning Routine Charts, and Tips on Storing and Organising Laundry, my Lunchbox Planners and Meal Planners, as well as some of our lunchbox and water bottle products that we stock and swear by, like the Bento Lunchboxes and the new Watermate Stainless Steel, Drink Bottles.
If you missed it, watch the video here and I will list all the products and information below from the footage if you want to check any of it out.

LUNCH AND DINNER MEAL PLANNER
My A4 Lunch and Dinner Meal Planner should make things a little easier for you. Create a plan for your lunches and meals so you will eat balanced meals throughout the week. Planning ahead will save you on those busy nights that you can plan an easy dish or slow cooker meal rather than getting take out. I have Monthly Meal Planners available too.

LUNCHBOX PLANNER PAD
I’m happy to let you know that now my Lunchbox Planner is available in a 40 page A4 notepad. This wasn’t included in the show as it’s a new product that will be available really soon and going to be so uber helpful. Before you do your weekly shop, create a plan of what you want to pack in the lunchbox for the week and add the items to your grocery list. You can also download the original here too.

SHOPPING LIST NOTEPAD
This ultra organised Shopping List Notepad will help you save time while walking up and down the aisles at the supermarket, listing all your required groceries in the provided categories.

LAUNDRY ROUTINE
Unfortunately, washing is one of those tedious jobs that is never-ending, you think you have found the bottom of the pile, but the next day it’s back! Having a laundry schedule will help you stay in control of your dirty laundry piles. This helps me to make sure the kids always have clean school uniforms.

CHEESE & BACON MINI QUICHES
I mentioned quiches on the Today Show as a great lunchbox snack. Here is the recipe to my Cheese and Bacon Mini Quiches which are fantastic as a lunchbox snack and can be frozen too.

BANANA MUFFIN RECIPES
I also mentioned Banana Muffins on the Today Show, which I had in the fridge at the time of the interview, so thought that I would share that recipe here too. They are another great lunchbox snack that you can freeze for a later date.
