Every week we take a peek inside the lunches of the luckiest kids in Brooklyn. Read on, suppress your jealousy, and get a little brown bag inspiration.
I made today's lunch as a part 2 to last week's lunch to show you how I mix and match a few components to create what seems like a totally different meal. So with the roasted salmon and spring onions, I layered them onto country bread spread with cream cheese and added a few sprigs of dill. Nothing genius, but enough to keep lunch feeling fresh.
For a dose of nostalgia, I packed a couple of Petit Suisse Montebourgs for dessert -- when my kids were toddlers, they'd coo when I'd pull these out of the fridge.

Before starting Food52 with Merrill, I was a food writer and editor at the New York Times. I've written several books, including "Cooking for Mr. Latte" and "The Essential New York Times Cookbook." I played myself in "Julie & Julia" -- hope you didn't blink, or you may have missed the scene! I live in Brooklyn with my husband, Tad, and twins, Walker and Addison.
