The Not So Great Pyramids....

Miss A is studying Egypt in school. When I think of pyramids I think of desert, scorching sun, mummy's and camels! Could be an interesting week this week of lunches! I know The Great Pyramids of Giza actually have three pyramids, but that is a lot of pizza! So let's pretend these Not So Great Pyramids of Pizza has a hidden one you just can't see from this angle! Very hard to see but I did cut out three fabulous little camels walking along the bottom of the pyramids...hee hee. We have some peaches as the bright fiery sun and some fig newtons and rolled ham for fillers. Here are some facts for you!! My blog is now educational!! haha

• The Great Pyramid of Giza is also called Khufu's Pyramid or the Pyramid of Khufu and Pyramid of Cheops.
• The Great Pyramid is situated in Giza Necropolis, which stands bordering Cairo city of Egypt.
• The features of the Great Pyramid of Giza are so large they are visible even from the Moon.
• The Great Pyramid is the oldest and largest one of the three pyramids in Giza Necropolis.
• The Great Pyramid of Giza is the only remaining member of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
• The Great Pyramid remained the tallest man-made structure in the world for a period of over 3,800 years.

Forest creature...

Preparing to move out to our new home in Prosper this week; which definitely has more little critters then we do here in Frisco; we thought we would utilize our forest creature cookie cutter set that Miss A got from her Aunt Vicky. Although I say that and we have had two bobcats living in our drainage in front of our house for the last three weeks...good gray. Yeah that is a picture of one going back into the drainage hole. I was standing in my front yard when I took that! I keep calling animal control and they are like...we can't find them! Ummm why don't you come out around 6am and see them lounging in our neighbors yard every morning!!!! hee hee. Oh well.

Today we have a sandwich squirrel with mild cheddar and smoked ham. We have very imaginative trees with a string cheese trunk and tops of the trees are strawberries and cheez-its! We have some green bean grass and a few carrot flowers. Don't know what the bento box lunches will look like this week, we sign on our new house on Wednesday and officially move on Friday!! We may have a moving truck or moving box bento!! haha. Have a great week everyone!

Bunnylicious!!

Well Easter is fast approaching and Miss A has her big hunt and picnic today at school!!! So today she wanted a festive Bunnylicious lunch! We made two bunny sandwiches; one boy with a hat and one girl with a bow pick. They have a cheese face and a marshmallow tail. We added some chickadee crackers, white chocolate eggs and gummy bunny and chickadees. Of course we added some decorate grass dividers!! Happy Easter for those who celebrate....if you do not...at least take advantage of the sale of all that candy!!!! Mmmmmm!!! haha!

One Fish...

Okay THIS was the easiest bento lunch. Miss A took her fish cutter and cut out fish. Simple as that! Kind of cheated I guess...Dr Seuss has some unique and very artistic fish and we did not even try to copy their intricate design. But here you have your One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish!!!! Broccoli rice casserole and green beans topped with a provolone cheese fish and two american cheese fish. Then you have some cheerios with a red fruit roll up fish and some strawberries with a blue food coloring provolone fish! And I leave you with the last line of the book....

Today is gone. Today was fun.

Tomorrow is another one.

Every day,

from here to there,

funny things are everywhere.

Thing 1 and Thing 2

"Thing 2 would like to clarify that just because he wears the number 2 does not imply in any way that he's inferior to Thing 1." Haha....gotta love Dr. Seuss. Continuing with our Dr. Seuss theme this week Miss A decided she wanted boiled eggs for her lunch. She always eats two so coming up with an idea for two boiled egg faces was not hard!! Thing 1 and Thing 2! So here we have boiled egg faces with blue provolone cheese hair. The body is ham with a cheese circle identifying Thing 1 and Thing 2. We also have some corn, strawberries and some fig newtons to squeeze it all nice and tight and hold it all in place!!! "Thing 1 says he's Thing 1 for a reason and some people should just get used to it. It's a Thing thing, you wouldn't understand." Ha ha! Have a great one!

The Cat in the Hat

Happy Monday everyone!! Had a fabulous weekend of packing getting ready to move to the new house, a fabulous Sip and See for a dear dear friend, Miss A conquered her fear of her bicycle for her St. Jude's Trike-A-Thon this week, and I managed to go uneventful all weekend with no crazy falls or accidents!! GO ME! haha. We read a lot of Dr. Seuss this weekend, Miss A and I did and there are so many characters to choose from we thought we would start with the mother of all....the Cat in the Hat!!! We have an easy breezy turkey and cheese sandwich topped with aportrait of that fabulous Cat in the Hat himself!!! Added a side of chips and some blackberries and all done! Must say it felt like I had a Staples button because..." That was Easy!!!!". Have a good one!!!

Mister Seahorse...

I must say I loooove this book!! Mister Seahorse is a book of fabulous male fishes who take care of the eggs before they hatch! Domestic equality undersea!! Love it! Alexa also loves this book because of the colors. It was her idea of course to make a cheese seahorse and paint it! We have cheese ravioli on the bottom, a provolone seahorse, hand painted by Alexa with a candy eye. We have olives in a zig zag pattern to represent seaweed and some american cheese fishies! We also have some goldfish; no explanation needed there; and some blackberries for dessert. YUM YUM!! Alexa wanted to take a pic of the seahorse with her to show at school with her lunch! TGIF!!!!
