Last week's Bento Adventures

First of all I must apologize for taking a hiatus from blogging last week.  My mother was down visiting from California so I was soaking up all the time I could while she was here!

Back to business here though, and the Bento's didn't stop while she was here...so here is me playing catch up from last week!

Monday: sliced cucumbers, with mixed peppers (my daughter can't get enough peppers so I go with it all the time!), Babybel cheese with a cute star shape cutout, and a cup of mandarin oranges to finish off her snack container.  For her main lunch she has bologna flowers with homemade cookies she made with daddy the night before.

Tuesday: Homemade omelette with chopped peppers and ham inside (yup, peppers again!), bologna rolls with cute little animal pics holding them together, some cheese and cracker rounds, and a couple dried apricots to finish off the big box.  Her snack box had a homemade apple cinnamon mini muffin, skewers of fresh yummy pinneapple, and some heart shaped cucumbers with carrot sticks :D

Wednesday: A few different munchies for her snack container today; bologna rolls (the kid loves bologna so I have to give in sometimes and give it to her), cheese slices, dried apricots (must get to grocery store and pick up fresh fruit!), and some star shaped cucumbers with a carrot in the middle to fill (I saved the inside star cut out of cucumber for tomorrow's lunch).  Her main lunch was leftover egg noodles with a bit of butter and parmasean cheese sprinkled over, and a yummy fresh bun.

Thursday: Her snack today was yummy oranges slices (lets keep those illnesses away with Vitamin C intake!) and a few diced strawberries, a cute Babybel with a rabbit cut out (tried free hand cutting it, hope it looks like a rabbit), and a few goldfish crackers in her cute rabbit silicone cup.  Her main lunch was a few mini sandwiches (just got some new cutters to play with, see below), a bear silicone cup with some fruit snacks, and some mixed veggies to top it off.

 

Friday:  her lunch box has a cute fish silicone filled with Craising, and a few pink wafer cookies cut up, then another new toy I just got was used for the cute puzzle sandwich (see below), with a cute little racoon critter peeking out of the puzzle piece.  Then her snack container was filled with a star shaped Babybel, some homemade banana chocolate-chip loaf, a few carrots sliced up fun and an adorable bunny rabbit hard boiled egg with her own cute bow for her ear!

Some fun new toys arrived in my mailbox this week!!  Check out this post for details
