We're going to DISNEYLAND! - More Than Your Average Mom

…For today’s lunch, and by going to DisneyLand for lunch I mean there’s a Mickey in your lunch box… Psych!

Hehehe… Don’t worry… I didn’t play the same game with my kids, that could have been bad! There was a killer travel deal to Disney the other day on the news though, kids fly and stay free, that I would have loved to jump on, but alas I’ll just live out my vacationing dreams through tasty bentos!

So apparently we’ve been on a bit of a rice kick in this house being as there were two different varieties of leftover rice in my fridge when I went on my bento making pillage! One would think that with all the grocery shopping I did yesterday I wouldn’t need to scrounge the fridge for leftovers, but lets be real here! Anywho, the desire to rid my fridge of rice was the motivator behind this one! I quickly realized that one tiny Mickey shaped rice ball wasn’t going to be nearly enough food, nor was it going to hold together in the lunch, I back filled voids with white rice to make this cute little guy.

Cute right?!

The Mickey and Minnie sammies have faces pressed into them, but apparently I suck at doing so and can’t seem to make the faces show through despite having toasted or fresh bread (someone tell me what I’m doing wrong here!) Mickey has deli meat face cutouts, but those failed too so you can’t really see them! I still think it’s cute, Walt would be proud!
