Anything Goes

Every night before bed I ask the monkeys what they would like for lunch the next day. After they are asleep I go to work. I'd love to be one of those morning people that hop out of bed and get a jump on the day...but I'm not. I'm a zombie, even after coffee, and the monkeys are no better at mornings. So we all take a good hour to get up, fed, dressed, and out the door. So I bento at night. Last night it was 3 lunches for today and a cute snack for little monkey's class. They are on transportation so I made apple and grape cars, not pictured but you know the ones. If you ever see good outdoor lighting...it was probably a sick day :)

Pixar Transportation 
Cars and Planes 2 of his favorite movies in one bento!
