First Day – Cartoon Lunch
I found a really awesome picture on the “net” of Phineas & Ferb, in food form, and I decided I’d try and recreate something to really blow these guys away. With the reveal the little one thought it was Tom & Jerry and the big one thought Ferb was a dog. Strike one for Mama. […]
Skeleton Lunch
This I probably should’ve waited to post until about a month or two from now. Raisins, olives, fig cookies, bread and peanut butter and jelly can make this happen! And you could make it happen for the first day of school! As for the rest, strawberries, grapes, soy yogurt, homemade applesauce, chocolate drops, crunchy sticks […]
Halloween Monster Face Sandwiches
Watch out this monster might get you. Or maybe this one. I should have saved this post for the Day of the Dead. The rest of these monster mash lunches are filled with all kinds of goodness. Look at that little monster in the background below. Now for the goods => Tiny apple from our […]
Hot Dog Bun Sandwich
This one makes me hungry. I can really get down on a sandwich. Sometimes we have those pesky leftover hotdog buns after a bbq so the boys end up with hotdog bun sandwiches for a few days. There are many worse things than ham, lettuce and tomato on a hotdog bun. No sneaking lettuce into […]
Wrappity Wrappity Wrap
Turkey, lettuce, tomatoes from our garden and a bit of dressing – wrap it all up and you get a delicious main course. The rest of the cold lunch looks like this… The rest of the delights for today’s midday meal we have edamame, a juicy clementine, a dollop of homemade applesauce, a handful of […]

(of the green and red variety) berries (of the blue and straw variety)), some pesto pasta, raisins, a bean and egg and salsa burrito wrapped in a spinach tortilla, some ham rolled about some red and orange bell peppers, edamame, and a sweet little lemon daisy cookie. […]
Birthday Lunch
Today we have a bagel sandwich with ham, tomatoes from our garden, and a bit of cream cheese. The sides are a lemon daisy cookie, pesto pasta (the favorite summertime score), strawberries, kiwi and nectarine (all of the organic variety) and a 1/2 banana – carved… Guess who turned 7!?! The variation is slight…but Simon […]
May the Force be with you
Dino peanut butter and jelly today, well for one kid, and some Star Wars action for the other…. We have a little lover of Star Wars in our family, well actually 4 lovers of Star Wars in our family, so why wouldn’t you buy the Star Wars Sandwich cutters? I can’t seem to bring myself […]
First Day of School! Fish Go Round & More
Pretty exciting day at our house – as I’m sure it is at most of yours… 2nd Grade and Preschool 2! I couldn’t top the Angry Birds lunch that we shared on our Facebook Page – so we just went for something colorful! Or 2 somethings colorful… There is barely a difference between the two, […]
Bean and Ham Salad, Rice Ball and More
When you make a gigantic ham you have to get crafty. I concocted some bean, ham, celery, etc salad. Again, like usual, I didn’t write down the recipe, so I cannot share to the tee what it consists of. It was pretty darn delicious though. And since the kids liked it, they got it again […]
