*Cute lunch check-in*

I found a new website this week that has some cute and easy fun food ideas: https://www.cutefoodforkids.com/ 
My favorite of the week! The frogs were cut out with bear cookie cutters, but I put jumbo sprinkles on top of the ears and some more sprinkle details for the mouth and eyes  and- voila! - frogs! Lots of layers of silicone "baran" to make a psychedelic frog pond, and lots of fruit. Even the cup matched! DD really loved this one and ate every bite of the homemade sealed sandwich and fruit.
 
 
Any other Mary Poppins fans? It's DD's favorite movie, and here's a Poppins lunch. A Babybel cheese cut in half with umbrella handle picks (but a little piece of straw would work just as well). There's also a homemade sealed sandwich topped with berries and sunflower seeds (meant to look like the flower on Mary's hat ... my DD picked up on every detail!). A few cherries (Cherry Poppins - she thought this was SO funny) and a grape with a hat, also meant to be like Mary's hat.
 
 
This was packed in a two-tiered bento box and could easily have been closed up and taken for a to-go lunch. (We actually did that another day this week but I didn't take a picture. It is really nice to have an assortment of bento boxes because now I frequently pack DD a healthy snack or lunch for when we're running errands. If she gets hungry, she eats in the shopping cart, there's no waste from packaging, and nothing gets squished!). Anyway, this was a "sushi" roll lunch - tortilla, cream cheese, snap peas, meat and cheese all rolled up and then sliced into rolls, some fruit, and a Nilla wafer in the Hello Kitty container (which was a candy container from World Market that I bought just for bento purposes).
 
 
Breakfast for lunch. Oatmeal (have you had Coach's Oatmeal? It's so good and cooks a lot quicker than steel cut oats), cottage cheese, berries, some cinnamon/sugar in the little chick container for sprinkling on the oatmeal, and a chick pitcher of milk.
 
Have a great week and a Happy Fourth, everyone!
