*Cute lunch check-in*

To be honest, this week's lunches were a little lacking in cute. Winter food just isn't colorful like summer and the baby seems to need my attention right as I start making lunch. At least Thanksgiving is over and I can start making Christmas lunches - what could be easier? Cookie cutters are everywhere right now. Give it a try - your DC will love it! PIP your cute lunches here. If I can do it with a newborn, you can too!
The best of the week - Christmas tree sandwich with the cheese on top and mini chocolate chips for the ornaments. A "present" of raisins under the tree, clementine with a pick, yogurt and dehydrated strawberries for a little color. There's also a little reindeer suction cup. I got a set of them at World Market last year - they're for identifying wine glasses, but they're fun little plate accents, too.
A woefully out of focus and thrown together Hello Kitty lunch. In a HK bowl is a HK sandwich, hardboiled egg with bow pick on top (this is where baby Hello Kitties come from), meat and cheese on picks, clementines and a baby apple. Not cute but DD ate it all the same.
We love this panda box! A triple-decker sandwich (great way to use up the entire piece of bread with no waste - just put the prettiest bread on top), dried apricots, clementine, dehydrated strawberries, Babybel cheese and a little panda container with a panda cookie inside. This was one of the few lunches DD actually finished this week.
I decided on a heart theme for this lunch and was all finished except for the bottom right corner. That's when I remembered that I've been wanting to try a "chick" hardboiled egg. Because I'm impatient, I put it in this lunch even though it *gasp* didn't fit the theme. DD loved it and has eaten several other hardboiled eggs this week. She's pretty anti-egg, so this made me happy. This lunch contains an apple with cheese heart, homemade sealed sandwich with a little peekaboo window, clementine, hardboiled egg and chewy treat.

Re: *Cute lunch check-in*
Cute! Here are a couple of my recent ones. :-)
Mini pancake snowman with fruit leather scarf, pretzel arms, and cheerio snow.
Here's one I did for Thanksgiving night-- turkey PB&J sandwich with goldfish feathers, green beans, ham, blueberries, dried strawberries, and cheese letters. She is LOVING the cheese (or fruit leather) letters. Now that she's learning letters, it's fun to see her recognize them.
Bears are an old favorite with us, so I've done something similar before. Pancake bear with grape, blueberry marshmallow/sprinkle, and fruit leather details, more blueberries & grapes, cheese bear cut outs, and fruit leather letters.
