Food, Family, Fun.

green beans (from our garden!), grape tomatoes, ritz crackers, ham flower

babybel cheese, ranch dip in the strawberry cup

clementine, carrot sticks, grapes, strawberry flowers

I made this the night before and took a photo - then I pulled out the ritz crackers and put them in a zip bag on the counter. I wasn't sure if the leaving them in the bento and in the fridge would make them soft. I stuffed them back in the bento in the morning. Rose has been a bit fussy about not wanting too much sandwich lately - I am sure she will be thrilled to have crackers instead!

MTM lunch. Loosely following the theme flowers - but I finally got to make a ham flower for the girls. They were so excited over the ham - it was kind of amusing actually. They basically all had the same thing - except no picks for Heidi, no tomatoes for Amy. Heidi was standing at the counter while I was still finishing up trying to steal a bite from everyone's lunch. She's such a rascal.

Heidi's Lunch

butterfly crackers, cucumber flowers, piece of choc cake that Great Granny made

mandarin oranges (she ate the most of the peaches while I was still finishing up!)

mini ham flower, grapes

Amy's Lunch

butterfly crackers, cucumber flowers, chocolate cake ( which she didn't eat!)

mandarin oranges & peaches, ham flower, grapes

butterfly crackers, grape tomatoes, cucumber flowers, chocolate cake

peaches & mandarin oranges, ham flower, grapes

Everyone wanted more crackers & more peaches and no one finished the cake - Amy didn't even touch it. I have weird kids - oh well more cake for me :)
