So of course he wanted bluebonnets for lunch today...or at least a sandwich that looked like bluebonnets. To add some fun to the morning, I decided to time how long it takes me to make lunch. Now added bonus today is our first day back from spring break, so not only was it a crazy busy weekend, got home late, went to bed late due to unpacking and stuff, and hadn't seen 6am for a week (boo I hate mornings).
Actual bento time was under 10 min, I know this shows 12 minutes but it's a later pic which includes making the bento, staring like a zombie (pre-coffee) into the fridge and pantry to see if I wanted to add anything to the sandwich compartment, taking pics for the blog, and making breakfast while waking green monkey. Most of my time was staring or taking pics, ok staring, I really hate mornings. I drew the cheese last night in all of 2 min tops, from the comfort of my recliner watching TV :). The reason we start at 6am when he doesn't have to be out the door until 7am is none of us are morning people. While hubby is showering and getting ready for work I'm doing breakfast and lunches. By 6:30am big kid is off to get dressed and back on the couch to get a few extra winks before its time to go, somewhere in that time little blue toddles out and demands his "juice and a show".
In this bento :
- Peanut butter and jelly Texas sandwich, with bluebonnets on provolone
- Grapes
- Carrots
- Leftover mini brownie with rainbow from St. Patrick's dinner yesterday
