Back on the school train this week for a 4 day week. Today I used the Lunch Punch train cutter for Miss G’s sandwich. The wheels are fruit leather, and the cat is the train driver. She has watermelon pieces, strawberry hearts and small honeydew melon trains below packed in her LunchBots Uno.
Miss A had her first day back to mom’s morning out. She has a fruit heavy lunch with plums, pineapple, watermelon and raspberries and blueberries clockwise with an apple shaped sandwich for lunch packed in her sistema bento.
I also spent some quality time at the community pool over the weekend with the family. We had a chance to try out our new picnic sized bento box from BentoUSA. It was great for family sized snacks without the runny mess! Hope everyone had some quality downtime to recharge over the weekend.
Things I used to make these bentos:
Chugga Chugga Choo and Some $ Too

Day 2 of the transportation theme, and Miss G wanted a train today. She had Rudi’s Oat & Nut bread with soy butter and strawberry jam. On top of the train I used some funky carrots that I found at the local farmer’s market. They were orange, yellow and a dark red so I thought they would make great wheels. I stuck them on with the soy butter. I also wanted to make steam coming out of the top, but I think it looks more like clouds which is fine too. I stuck a blue elephant pick in the sandwich so the train would have a driver. At the top right are honeydew, cantaloupe and a watermelon heart. Below that is a small rail car with the same carrot wheels carrying a load of green grapes all packed in her Easy Lunch Box.
Miss A was still sniffly so she was at home with me again this morning. Big daddy however needed lunch today. I made him an almond butter sandwich with jam on the same Rudi’s Oat & Nut bread. He got a big dollar sign made of Veggy Cheese on top. He also had some left over hoppin’ john salad made of black eyed peas, collard greens, celery, green peppers, onions, and some spices. And at the top left is the same melon hearts that Miss G had in hers packed in his Easy Lunch Box.
And he also had a salad from a salad bowl I’ve been growing in the back yard. I used the rest of the multi-colored carrots in his lunch, an orange heirloom tomato and walnuts on top packed in his Lunchbots Uno.
