Funny faces and Stitch school lunches

Welcome to Wednesday.  This week has been filled with tragic news as an adult so I’m making it extra fun for my kids’ bento lunches for some added cheer.

Bentoriffic's happy animal faces bento

 

Miss G wanted to test drive our new cutter set from Bento USA.  I can’t stand the cuteness of these cutters.  They waste very little bread.  You could even use them as toast stamps or to make press small cookies.  Adorable!  To go with the sandwiches are mini carrots and dip in the pink rabbit sauce cup.  In the top of her Easy Lunchboxes container are heart shaped strawberries and rabbit shaped watermelon pieces with rabbit bento picks.

Hummus peace pretzels and fruit snack

 

Peace and hummus are what’s for snack today in Miss G’s LunchBots Pico.  She has King Family Farm peaches, chickpea hummus with a kalamata olive on top, watermelon pieces and Laurel Hill brand peace pretzels for dipping in the hummus.

Stitch is back at it again in our Easy Lunchboxes container.  Thanks to our lovely friend in Japan, we have a boatload of new, fabulous Stitch bento lunch gear.  Daisy Selalu (whose blog has the same name), is a fantastic bento artist and a generous will to shop for her American friends, found new Stitch sandwich cutter, silicone cups for us, picks, a fork and even a new bento box (not seen here).  Thank you, Daisy!!!

This Stitch sandwich is on whole wheat bread and the eyes and nose are cute from Pepperidge Farms Dark Wheat bread.  The small Stitch cup in the middle contains dried cranberries.  The small blue silicone cups have dried cherries and Marcona almonds with rosemary.

Halved strawberries are in the left side with a Stitch bento pick and a small Stitch face baran (food separator) for fun.  On the right side are watermelon pieces.  The top Stitch face was cut with a small cookie cutter and I used the stamp to press in his face.

Lilo & Stitch for lunch in our bento boxes

It’s no secret that in our house Lilo & Stitch rule. We spend a lot of time outside playing, but the girls want to watch their little Hawaiian friend and her alien “dog” each chance they get. I sent Miss A off to preschool with this little fun surprise in her lunchbox.  I packed her Continue Reading »

Warhol for lunch

It’s is Art Appreciation week at Miss A’s school.  She just turned 3, but it’s never too early for art appreciation in my opinion.  Who doesn’t love paintings, colors and getting messy with art?  I like her art best because her teacher this year lets her do her own thing.  She gets very little help Continue Reading »

Happy birthday to Miss A

It was Miss A’s birthday this week.  She turned 3.   I think every mother sits back and asks where the time went.  It certainly doesn’t feel like 3 years ago!  In any case, I made her a special birthday lunch, and her Easy LunchBoxes container came back empty which is always a sign of Continue Reading »
