Snoopy Bento

Today I attempted to make my favorite Charlie Brown characters, Snoopy and Woodstock. I used to love Charlie Brown as a kid, but remember always being depressed by how depressed Charlie Brown was in most episodes. If it weren't for Snoopy and his sidekick Woodstock, I probably wouldn't of watched the show at all! My little ones don't know these characters, but Missy Lulu never met a dog she didn't love,"Aww cute dog mommy!" she said. "And what's the other yellow thing?" ( Me:) "It's a canary bird dear, but it's hard to tell." "Oh," she says, "Well it's cute too mommy, I'll eat him!" (Me:) "Good girl!" So here's Lunch and snack:

1. Snoopy, made from a boiled chicken egg with Nori details. Snoopy is served over Ramen noodles.
2. Woodstock is hand cut from a carrot pancake. He also has some nori details.
3. The usual veggies of cucumbers and cherry tomatoes
4. Green beans
5. Sliced Chicken nugget.

In the snack bento was served:

1. Snoopy nutella sammie with nori details.
2. Yellow & red cherry tomatoes make Woodstock with nori details.
3. Two mini sausages with flower picks
4. Sliced nectarines and plums
5. Boxed fruit juice

Everyone have an amazing weekend! Love Kiki ^.^

Bentos gone to the dogs!!

It's a overcast day today and baby sunshine is fast asleep! I have a cup of tea and my laptop, happy to have a few moments to myself to blog! We had nice lunches today using the Hello Kitty tins...

For lunch we had:

1. Homemade cream of chicken soup
2. cottage cheese with bologna doll! (instead of paper) cheese and nori details. Above skirt and hair is eggplant)
3. Steamed peas
4. Tomatoes and slice cucumbers
5. sliced chicken nuggets 

For school snack I picked dogs as the theme..my oldest loves dogs. She would make a wonderful vet someday!!

In this snack bento she has two poodles...I used marzipan again. I would love to try and make pink bread like what you see at Bentomonsters, remember that pink poodle? (It was super cute!!)But until I find a good recipe, Marzipan is my medium!

1. Poodle  sammie made of butter bread and marzipan (sausage and nori paw)
2. Tiny cheese and nori poodle face...used the tiny Carl craft punch.
3. Two sausage bows
4. Apple juice

The day before Missy Lulu took this bento:

1. A doggie apple muffin...homemade from our own apples!
2. Two sausage puppies with cheese details got this idea from the amazing Luckysudnae at her blog cuteobento. (Careful you'll spend hours drooling over her work!)
3. Sliced plum and nectarine
4. Apple juice
