Happy Birthday Lewis Carroll

Some days I feel a bit like Alice, falling down the rabbit hole. Eat this it makes you bigger, drink that it makes you smaller. In fact if I run through all the emotions I experience in a week I probably tap into 95% of the characters in Wonderland. I'm not crazy, ok a little, but really his characters are just that relatable to just about everyone at some point in their lives. I think that's what makes his books classics, their ability to span all ages and environments. So this his 182nd birthday I made two fo my favorite bumbling goofballs for lunch.

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum 


In this lunch : In an Easy Lunchbox
  • Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum - Peanut butter and jelly sandwich made with CuteZCute cutter
  • Honeynut Cheerios
  • Heart strawberries
  • Celery with peanut butter
 
A little clip from the classic cartoon for your Monday pleasure.

Last year we did a wonderful hop in celebration, you can see them all here. I made Alice, Cheshire cat, white rabbit, caterpillar, and a nod to the red queen and mad hatter.

Through the looking Glass

Happy 181st birthday Lewis Carroll! Inspired by some of my fellow bloggers and the linky over at Bent on Better lunches we've taken our lunch down the rabbit hole and into the world of Alice in Wonderland.

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?”
Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass

  • Cheese Alice on a cracker
  • Babybel Cheshire cat

“Where should I go?" -Alice. "That depends on where you want to end up." - The Cheshire Cat.”
