Day 43- Breakfast for Lunch-Butterfly Pancakes

I tend to get real creative with dinner and Monday's lunch on Sunday evenings and typically use a lot of leftovers from dinner and Sunday breakfast fixings. This lunch is blueberry pancakes cut with a butterfly cookie cutter, fresh berries cut into flower shapes by peanut, omelette spinach and swiss cheese rolls (omelet made thin with waterand just cooked on bottom of pan until set, and asparagus wrapped with brocolli with a tiny container of syrup.

Day 42- Rolled up turkey and cheese with wheat thins and ranch dip

with monkey pick

Day 41- It's a Dog Eat Dog World

Sunflower butter and apricot preserve sandwich on sliced persimmon with black berries and corn.

Day 40- Jazz it up Orange Chicken

No school on Monday due to teacher planning day (How many of these per year can we possibly have!?). Bear turned 2 years old instead so we had a great time together at home and had a wonderful family party with cake! Yum! Then I was sick with the flu all day Tuesday . Luckily Peanut had lunch at school on Wednesday. Orange chicken for dinner Wednesday night and for lunch later today (Thursday). Not very inspired today so here above is the Bear's cake and lunch,  before jazz and after.....Left-over orange chicken on rice with steamed brocolli, and plum slices with blue berries. With sugar free vanilla pudding with "sprinkles" for a treat.

Day 39- Puzzle Time

Turkey ham and avocado sandwich with cheese pizzle, carrots and tomatos and blueberries. Home-made blueberry scone and  fresh blueberries for snack.

Day 38- Fairy tale mushrooms

Tuesday we had lunch at school and yesterday was a snow day! 12 inches out here. We had a blast at home! For Thursday lunch, these guys were just too cute not to try one time. We made the bodies out of mozzarella cheeze slices cut with a juice glass and then angled with and botter knife and then traced the same on slices of salami which I used a drinking straw to "polka dot". Used 4 "dots" for cheeks and Peanut cut the eyes out of Nori using a punch. We also cut up strawberries and canned "baby corn" with black olives, and served on a bed of rice noodles left over from dinner.

Yay snow day!
