| Christmas rice crispies, bottle of milk, pear & kiwi & green beans & raspberries, pepernoten, Mr. Snowman! |
But to make this lunch come together, I thought it could use a little Christmas treat. I gave Munch three marshmallows, some black licorice lace, and some other black candies. She put them together with a shish kabob skewer and created a beautiful little snowman! Way to go Munch... I love this little guy!
Munch loves to get involved with the preparation of her meals and snacks - she is much more likely to eat those things that she has helped making. Even if this particular one is a treat - she thought the theme was so fun and likes to show her friends at school. This poor little snowman ended up being split into three for three hungry grade 5'ers! No wonder he looks a little down - anticipating his fate?
That is so very cute! I am wondering about the cut pears - do they stay okay, or do they get kind of brown in the lunch? And the raspberrie - do you buy fresh still, or are they frozen?
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI am not really sure if they turn brown. Munch loves pear so much that none of it is ever left over. And if it does turn brown, I never hear about it so I don't think it bothers her. I only ever use fresh berries because the frozen tend to get mushy and messy when thawed. Thanx for your questions!
Yesterday I posted something but it didn't work.
ReplyDeleteHere we go again: Love your innovative ways of making snacks. And for the coming up season! And I can imagine that Munch's classmates were jealous at the cute snowman. She must have had fun making it.
This is so cute! You have such creative ideas!
