Pig on the Farm & 100th Bento!



Today we have a pig on the farm. The pig and barn are made from a Biscoff sandwich. The barn window and door are made from slices of grapes. I tried to use a green food safe marker, but it did not work to well.  This all sits on a bed of spinach. I made a fence out of matchstick carrots. To the left of that I have grapes and cheese.

In honor of making it to 100 bento lunches, I have decided to host a giveaway. All items are brand new. I had to take the egg mold out of its package in order to get a decent picture of it. Included in this giveaway is a package of food picks, a heart egg mold, a package of food separator sheets, and a Stitch cookie press. The cookie presses work pretty well to make cute mini sandwiches.  To enter the giveaway, use the Rafflecopter box at the end of this post.

  8. Sometimes 10 minutes ... sometimes it feels like 3 days!!! I tend to multitask when I make lunch so it's hard to tell sometimes :)

    1. lol Rush and spend 15 minutes. I love it! That is all the minions get (3-4 lunches) is 15 minutes. On bad days it is a lot less. Poor kids all get the same lunch. I am kinda lazy like that.

  11. I spend zero time making lunch for myself. I skip lunch and usually just snack since I now work part-time. However, for my daughter I feel like I spend 30 minutes. I will have to time myself.

  13. I'd say 30 minutes to an hour. Like others have stated it really depends on how organized I am. lol!

  14. It depends if I have food leftover or have to make something. 10-30 minutes until I can save money to buy supplies to help make my food more elaborate. :)

    1. The Dollar Store and Target's dollar area are my friends. I got many of my food picks off ebay for a dollar including shipping. They were out of Hong Kong and took forever to get here, but for only $1, I can deal with that. :-)

    1. You are a nice Mama. Mine will sometimes ask for different things and I tell them no. Mama just wants to get lunch making over with. I normally have an 11 month old under foot and pulling on me.

    2. thanks. Well, my oldest eats PB, but my middle one won't. She ONLY likes cheese sandwiches. Oldest likes salads. Then, if my 3 year old sees me making the girls lunch, he wants one for "pirate school" the next day. And no, there really isn't any such thing as pirate school. Thats what he calls his time when the sisters are at school since he doesn't get to go!

    3. That is cute. The first thing I thought with pirate school was maybe it was pirate time at home. lol My 3 year old likes to play pirate about 75% of the time while his older brothers are at school (half days).

  18. Usually around 15 minutes. Most of that time is spent cutting up veggies.
