Creativity with food is a talent I have always admired and wish I was better at. The other night after blogging about school lunches, I started researching more ideas on how to make Hello Kitty sandwiches for my 1st grader. In my research I came across some fun ideas. Have you ever heard of Bento Boxes? The picture above came from this bento box blog.
Bento Box lunches are very famous in Japan. The simplest definition of bento is that it is the Japanese word for a boxed lunch.

My youngest is starting 1st grade and will be taking a school lunch with her every day to school. She is an extreme introvert so I know by lunch time she will be exhausted and ready to come home. I’m hoping school lunch will be like a giant hug from me to keep her going for a few more hours at school. Any ideas you have to offer would be much appreciated.

The other night I had the gym instructors I work with over for a girls night out. Everyone brought their favorite late night snack and Nicole brought these delicious little dipped-chocolate treats. They looked like cake balls I’ve heard so much about ( big at weddings in Idaho) so I was very excited to try one. After taking a bite of the white hardened chocolate with soft creamy Oreo filling, I was smitten. Usually something so wonderful is very time consuming to make, but not these little treasures.
