Zoo Animals

Another really simple bento today.  N'Anna wanted tomato soup and crackers (soup in her thermos, not pictured).  Miniature saltine crackers, two turkey and cheese roll-ups in the back, and strawberries again (by request).  Added the cute zoo animal picks, and a few chocolate chip teddy grahams.

Dora and Boots to the Rescue

Super simple lunch today, and didn't really have any cute ideas.  So, Dora and Boots to the Rescue.  ABC spaghetti and meatballs in her thermos.  Put a the cupcake picks in the cherry tomatoes.  To go along with the Dora theme, went with star shaped carrot and cucumber cutouts for her salad, and strawberries for her yogurt.  The small round container has some salad dressing.

Minnie Mouse Sandwich

Minnie Mouse ham and cheese sandwich, yellow and orange carrots, two little cherry tomato flowers, strawberries with cute flower picks, and four little strawberry creme filled cookies.

It's supposed to be a little warmer today, so I thought it would be nice to squeeze in another cold lunch.  N'An is not too fond of sandwiches, but she agree to eat one.  While we were discussing what veggies to put in lunch, she asked for more yellow and orange carrots even though she had them yesterday.  I didn't want to argue since she agreed to the sandwich.  I used a bread crust for Minnie's ears, and the bow and face details are provolone cheese that I colored with food color markers.

Spelling Word - SUN

I was running really late this morning, and didn't really have anything in mind.  So I threw together a really quick spelling word bento today.  Vegetable beef soup in the thermos, along with a SUN cheese sandwich, some grapes, and orange and sunny yellow carrots.  Threw in a couple of cute bee picks to try to dress it up a little.  After I took the picture, I decided it needed a llittle something else, so I dropped in a few mini Lorna Doone's in the corner next to the grapes.

Turtle Lunch

Turtle lunch today.  Hot dog in the turtle cup, cucumber fries and cherry tomatoes on the side, checkerboard apple slices, and mac-n-cheese in her thermos (not pictured).

Butterflies

Back to the girly bentos.  Butterflies today.  She's got chicken soup in her thermos (not pictured), a butterfly cream cheese and grape jelly sandwich, grapes in a butterfly cup, carrot butterflies and a couple of yogurt covered pretzels.

Spaghetti-O's

No school Thursday and Friday, so today is the first "after-Halloween" lunch.  Must say, it was really glad I didn't have to come up with another Halloween theme!  Also had a couple of days off there.  Back to an old staple today, Spaghetti-O's and Meatballs in her thermos today.  She also has some garlic toasts, cherry tomatoes, string cheese, a clementine and a few chocolate chip teddy grahams.
