Day 55- You can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Man....

Peanut is reading the Gingerbread man in kindy right now so that inspired this lunch with brocolli and cauliflour tree (ornaments attached with ranch dressing) on a bed of lettuce (also attached with ranch) and gingerbread men sandwiches (the big one is jelly and cream cheese (no ranch nearby) and the little one is ham and cheese with candy cane and bell cut outs and strawberry angel.

Day 54- Fun Yogurt etc

Yogurt with small "fruity pebbles dessert topping" (can't be ALL healthy ALL the time! Kashi breakfast bar cut up with strawberries and oranges, sugar snap peas and carrot sides.

End of Year Gift for the Teachers....

Seems like we have soooo many...Let's see we have the woman who cares for both Bear ft and Peanut on breaks when I can't, the kindy "home room teacher", the specials teachers for art, PE and Music as well as the math teacher and then there is the front office lady who also helps lunch and helps with car pool who Peanut just "loves"....What to do? Bought some cool cards with inserts and on one side Peanut signed her name (and Bears for the daycare teacher), and she also cut out and pasted on pictures which she picked out...I wrote this saying down on each that always makes me tear up, and included fun matchy gift cards for the main teachers (kindy, math and day care) and just the cards with pics for the rest... We had fun...

Day 53- Spaghetti and Meat Sauce Left Overs

Day 50- Shrimp cocktail

Cooked cooled shrimp on lettuce with chedder cheese "ring" side, wheat thins, strawberries, snow peas and carrot sticks with a few dried craisins for color.

Day 49- Mice

Peanut has been begging for this lunch forever! She really likes the little mouse idea. So we made it....Unfortunately...ahe said she dropped the whole thing! Poor baby! The lunch ladies gave her a hot lunch though... Mac and cheese cupcakes (made previously and defrosted) with snap peas, carrots, strawberries and a ham and cheese mouse with banan, grapes and bunny grahams for snack.
