This Bento started off very uninspired. I felt like I didn't really even have anything to pack and half of my box was missing. I had a few leftover "Healthy Cookies," so I started with those.
I bought celery for a dinner recipe that I planned, but ever since then my kids have been asking for "ants on a log," so I decided to add these. I was going to make a cashew butter sandwich and realized that was a lot of brown for one lunch...
Sudden inspiration struck and I decided to make a bug themed lunch. I added red pear ladybugs and salad "grass" with a gummy worm garnish.
To make sure that she didn't miss my "theme" I added this note:
I've linked up to "What's For Lunch Wednesday." Check it out for great Bento ideas!
Even there are bugs,this bento box looks appealing & healthy....

ReplyDeleteVery cute. I love the ladybugs.
ReplyDeleteHaha! I like that you wrote her a note. Some days I will say something about part of Reba's lunch and she will say "Oh, I didn't notice."
ReplyDeleteMy daughter has *requested* notes in her lunch- Beyond, "I love you," I'm never sure what to write. I was happy to have some inspiration for this one. I'm excited for her to have her lunch today- I just hope things don't move around too much- I still need to get a REAL bento box!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Just love the added touch of the note!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy the shrimp and thanks for visiting my blog! I LOVE this bug food, my son loves bugs more than anything and he will be so excited about this!
