Pancake Fun

Ellie's lunch bento. We made some green pancakes (with food marker smiley faces and designs!) so she got 3 of those, a little container of syrup, clementine slices, applesauce, corn, and jello squares. She ate all of it but a few kernels of corn. Success!

Butterfly Fun

Since it's still LOVE month, I made Eliana some heart Jello jigglers. She's been having fun with them, and one morning I gave her a couple as a snack, made into a butterfly. Easy peasy, and cute to boot, all I had to do was draw some swirlies onto the hearts using food markers and, voila!, a butterfly with pretzel body! She loved it.

The month o' love....

February is the month of love, right? I hope so, because we've been big on hearts this month!!



Peanut butter and jelly heart sandwiches, a Clementine, strawberries cut into hearts, and peas.

Hurry Blurry

When you're in a hurry, this is what you get!



It's better than drive-through chicken nuggets, but it's a little plain if you ask me! I actually made 2 of these, though, one for Eliana and one for her little friend Josie since I was taking both girls with me. They thought they were fun, even if I thought they were plain!

Cheese / tortilla wraps, yogurt with sprinkles, carrots, and Ritz crackers.

I Heart You, Cutie Patootie!

Another bento with heart pasta, and a little teddy bear Peep! This one is a little better balanced than the last one, with clementine slices, corn, and almonds to round out the meal!

Blurry and Plain

Just a plain old bento, and a blurry picture, but here it is! Carrots, Chicken Curry and Quinoa, Applesauce, Olives, and Tapioca Pudding. =D

Happy Valentine's Day!

I'm sort of embarrassed to post this bento, given its total lack of vegetable and overabundance of sugar, but it's just so cute for Valentine's Day! =D Heart pasta, Heart Peeps, and a clementine!
