Balloons & Butterflies Bento!

Another alliterative lunch (which perhaps, in & of itself is alliterative?). :o)

Thankfully, I had this one on my camera, because we are out of most food. We are also out of the elements of food and had cereal for breakfast because I might have used the rest of the eggs & ham & turkey to make quiche yesterday and forgot about making a Kroger run. It happens. We do, however, have a plethora of fruit because I picked one of our big watermelons from the garden yesterday! Sliced half, trying to decide what to make with the other half, leaning towards a granita.

Anyhow, back to lunches ...



Faith has a turkey & cheese sandwich on Nature's Own Whole Wheat Sandwich Rounds, cut in half to fit the box. It's top with a lunch meat butterfly with marble cheese spots, a white cheddar body, orange cheddar head and a couple of sugar eyes. He also has some little grape balloons floating by him and a few strawberries. The bottom tier holds a sliced boiled egg, cantaloupe & honeydew.

Think I'm going to make a grocery run in a bit, I have an idea in my head and need the fixings for it. ;o)
