Halloween 2013

Halloween - I didn't want to go too crazy and pack a bunch of food for today.  They are having their classroom party today so I know that it would just be wasted.  D has a mini whole wheat bagel with cranberry/pecan chicken salad, colby/jack cheese and an orange.

I also have cranberry/pecan chicken salad, colby/jack cheese, almond thins crackers and grapes.

The Halloween food picks were sent to us by Jee Jee from Bento USA.

Day 464

Day 464 - Skull and crossbones and Lab flask turkey sandwiches, grapes, ghost fresh mozzarella and a jack o' lantern apple.

I have a spinach salad with chicken, black beans and shredded cheese, grapes and crushed red peppers.



 

Day 463

Day 463 - Bagel with cream cheese and a small container of strawberry jelly, ham "eyeballs", haunted oranges, cereal bar.

I have a box of random stuff to pick on.  There is turkey, pino grigio cured salami, hot buffalo wing cheddar, grape tomatoes, Kashi bar and some grapes.  In case you haven't noticed or have been wondering...yes I LOVE grapes!

Day 457

Day 457 - Today is a silly sandwich day.  D has chicken parmesan meatballs in a sub roll, decorated with  eyes from a pumpkin decorating kit and the "stick" of a lollipop.  She also has pea pods and tomatoes, an apple and some M&M's.

I have a grilled chicken lunchable with hot buffalo wing cheddar, crostini, heirloom tomatoes and grapes.

 

Day 292

Day 292 - D watched A Nightmare Before Christmas the other day and fell in love with Jack Skellington!  I knew that some of my BBF's (Bento Blogging Friends) had made a Jack lunch so I went looking for inspiration.

D saw this lunch from Cristi at Bento On Better Lunches and was quite impressed!  Mine is not nearly as cute!  LOL

Tracie at Lunch, Snack And Sninner made hers for the Halloween Blog Hop.  I love how she used contrasting bread!

Karen from What's In Our Lunch Bags also made hers for the blog hop.  I have to be honest...the spider freaks me out a bit!  LOL

Shannon at What's For Lunch At Our House made this one that was featured on Disney's Family.Com!

So D's lunch features a Dark Chocolate PB Jack sandwich, some dark chocolate covered wafer cookies decorated with Wilton Icing Writer, grape tomatoes, string cheese, orange jack o' lantern and some Chobani Champions Very Berry yogurt.  After I took the picture I remembered that I had some fresh raspberries in the fridge so I put them on top of the yogurt as well.

Halloween Hop

Welcome to the BBF Halloween Hop!  Today I scared up a turkey/dried cherry wrap 'ghost', a bowl full of fresh mozarella 'eyeballs', a jack o' lantern apple, grape tomatoes on bone picks and yellow grape tomato 'jack o' lanterns.

Day 275

Day 275 - This morning when I took out the hamburger bun to make D's pb & j sandwich I was thinking I'd cut it into a dog or a bear.  As I was looking at the bun it kind of reminded me of an alien head so I was like ok an alien it is!  Once I got the eyes and mouth on it started to remind me of this painting.  So you will have to decide for yourself what D's sandwich is today!

In addition to the sandwich she has bell pepper slices and cherry tomatoes that D grew in her very own garden.  She has some sunflower seeds with some chocolate covered sunflower seeds, homemade cranberry/applesauce with chia seeds and two pumpkin no-bake cookies.
