I've been wanting to do a Dora lunch for some time now as the smallest kid is a HUGE fan, and, well with today being "D" Day (hehe) in my thematic alphabet lunch theme I figured now was as good a time as any! Not going to lie, this lunch took me 1 full hour to do. A little insane if you ask me, especially given that 85% of that was spent on the two little sammies, but in the … [Read more...]
“C” Themed Bento Lunch
Much like yesterday, today's lunch is brought to you by the letter C!

I've had a car molded egg in the fridge for a couple of days and it needed to be used so my best intentions told me that I should make a cute car themed bento with hand carved sammies and all the other imaginative things you could think … [Read more...]
