Croissant Sandwich


I just realized nothing "Halloween" like stuff in here :( 
When I'm busy one thing, I cannot think about the other thing! 
Today is halloween, and CC wanted to be Merida from Brave, and that involved
curling hair to paint spraying her hair. Whew! JJ was a kitty cat, nice and easy. 
And they have class parties with treats and games. I was thinking 
"I have to pack something light, and something not sugary" 
Anyway, simple ham and cheese sandwich and egg salad sandwich. 
Can you tell I was in a hurry? The picture isn't even focus :p
Happy Halloween!

Heart Sandwich


CC wanted to buy lunch today, so I got lazy. I made this for JJ but super simple. 
A heart sandwich with strawberry jam, fresh strawberries, ham and cheese in 
flower shapes. It was still very dark because of the storm. So the picture was 
taken under the light :)

Witch Bento

Witch Bento, Food, 魔女弁当、やきそば、魔女のおにぎり

It is Monday again! Happy Monday, everyone! 
I couldn't think of anything, then found left over pot stickers. 
That was perfect little something for lunch.
Then I decided to make a witch. Does it look like one? 
I hope so. They are simple rice balls.

California Roll Bento


I'm hoping I won't have to make dinner today. It's Saturday. I just don't feel like it. 
I feel pretty much like sushi. We have a really good sushi restaurant in our neighborhood. 
Although if we go, girls will race to eat tuna, and sometimes I don't get to eat any! 
I'm getting better at rolling sushi. This is fun once you know hot to do it :) 


Happy Halloween Spagetti


Today's lunch is spaghetti with pumpkin bread. I made eyes with a brownie. 
Happy Halloween!

Snowman Curry Bento

snowman curry bento, 雪だるま弁当

I'm not wishing for snow. I'm actually enjoying warm weather last couple of days. 
It's curry today, so this is easy solution :) 
For JJ, I made mashed potato ghost again... since she couldn't eat yesterday. 
As I predicted, she said "mommy, I couldn't eat, because you forgot to put folk in it!" 
I made sure everything is packed today.

As I post this picture, I realized that I forgot to put folks for kids. 
Hope they can find one at the cafeteria... otherwise, they bring this back! Oh no! 



In case you are wondering what they are: from left top, rice balls, bottom left, 
ghost shaped mashed potato, right bottom, meatballs.. trying to look like a bat.

Elephant Sandwich

elephant sandwich, snack, ぞうくんサンドイッチ

Here is today's lunch and snack. I used new elephant cookie cutter for a decoration. 
I've been trying to make heart shaped sandwich, but haven't succeeded. 
Maybe I put too much jam inside which is difficult to roll. and bread might be too thick
for the purpose. Anyway, I'm happy that turn out simple, but healthy looking lunch :)

Mac and Cheese Sandwich with Halloween Cookie


I take picture by the window normally. This morning, it was so dark! 
The thing is the sun rise is getting later. Plus it was a bit raining. 
So you may wonder what is that black round thing .. that's a halloween cookie, 
kind of like Oreo Cookie. And one side of cherry is raisins.
