Green for St Pats... a little early

Monkey had green day at school today, celebrating St. Patricks Day a little early!

I was running behind so it was a quick throw together, I admit. Sandwich with gold coins (dug out of her brothers pirate set), green melon, cucumbers with dip and veggie booty. And the little dip container - handy that it had a shamrock on it, I must say!

I Mustache You A Question...

Did you make a Valentines Day lunch today?

This one is inspired by my little monkey and her daycare teacher. She came home holding her hair braid in front of her nose saying "I mustache you a question...." over and over. And over. And over. She's so enthusiastic about it though that you can't help by crack up.

So I was cutting up some peppers and noticed they looked rather mustache like so we went with it!

Melon with heart pics, cucumbers and heart shaped peppers and a sandwich with icing eyes and a mustache. The little pink container is filled with some fishy crackers.

Mickey Bento

Tomorrow we are California bound and off to see the Mouse! So todays lunch was an obvious choice. The hightlight being the Mickey head crackers that a co-worker brought back for me, they are adorable!

To cut Mickey's head for the sandwich, I used a bowl for the circle and the tops of a heart cutter for the ears. Worked out well! Raisen eyes and a craisin mouth.

Happy Easter Bunny Bento

I pulled it off - here is the 4th and final lunch! I had to make a ton of chocolate popcorn for my husbands bake sale last night and it almost didn't happen. The guilt got to me though and here are Thursdays lunches!

3 year old - Annie's bunny grahams and crackers with veggie booty down the side. Rabbit sandwich with carrot ears, fruit leather whiskers and a pretzel mouth. She's being a diva and her fruit has to be separated at the moment....
6 year old. He will for sure come home stating that it didn't look like a bunny - I'll put money on it! Same thing only with grapes and rice cakes for ears. Oh and Cheecha puffs down the side (I have a small addiction to them!)

Easter Chickie Bento Lunch

Aww, an Easter chickie lunch for my chickie! And my dude, of course.

My old brain was fried so this one was tough!

The 3 year olds:
Easter egg  (I put those natural fruit nugget things inside), strawberries, Earths Best Organic mini waffle chick with raisin eyes and a carrot nose, rice cakes.


The 6 year olds is similar - only with grapes and peach applesauce.
