lunch

Here is cold, hard proof that eating healthy can be fun. What kid wouldn't love a cheerful snowman lunch? It's low-carb, lean protein, high fiber, and most likely incredibly tasty. I approve!

It's that time of year! What is your going to be dressed as? This lunch is going as friendly disembodied skulls at night. Not super scary but A for effort!

My coworkers will be so jealous of my leftovers when I bring them to work in this!

I've seen lots of cute sandwich cutters but I think these are the best. Look at the little animals snuggling together! So great!

Remember when mom used to write you little notes to surprise you when you opened your lunchbox? This is like that, but no embarrassing teasing.

You guys, I feel as sad as Wall-E looks! This is the last cute food post! Dry your tears, have a cute snack. Perhaps we'll meet again someday. Thanks for the years of wonderful memories!

Keep your salad from wilting before you eat it!

The more tools like this I see, the more I realize that decorative bento lunches might not be that difficult after all!

All sandwiches should be bite-sized and heart shaped. As Empress of the Kingdom of Cutesville I proclaim it to be so. Do your best.

The Olympics are heating up! Show your excitement with a themed lunch!

Elephant, thank you for making me such a delicious and beautiful meal! You sure are talented and precise with that big trunk of yours. How you managed to carve a self-portrait out of cheese, I'll never know!

The big rice swim meet is today, wasn't it nice of mom to think of you and make you a themed lunch? You're gonna rock that rice backstroke, piggy!

I'll forgive kitty for leaving footprints on my egg because he drew pretty little hearts on my chicken fingers! Aw, kitty, you really do love me!

What sorcery, what devilry, what evil tricks were used to shape the yolks but not the whites of those hard boiled eggs?! I would like to learn this secret magic! Teach me your ways, o dark one!

Most meals I make end up looking like the right hand portion of this bento; a mush of different types of food. I figure, it all ends up in the same place, who cares how it looks? Obviously someone cares. I'm so ashamed.

I need to just keep reminding myself that the rain is good and necessary and soon it will stop and everything will stay lush and green all summer long and it will be warm and beautiful. I'm so glad my lunch can help me remember.
