Usually my son doesn't care if the lunch I pack for him is cute or not. He doesn't eat much in school anyway >.< Once a while, he gets up in the morning, and asks me to pack him something cute for school. That's a problem! My mind is always empty in the morning. Besides, I don't even have enough time for my morning coffee, how can I come up with cute lunch idea?

These are what I do:

All the items I use here can be found in any dollar store!

Ladybug Sandwich

Tweet Pin It Now!

瓢虫三明治.
This is a ham and cheese sandwich kids would love to bring to school for lunch. You need only a round cookie cutter and a straw to make this ladybug. Here is how:

-Make the sandwich

-Make the wings

The eyes on this ladybug are candy eyes. However, if I had any white colour cheese and nori at home, I would use them to make the eyes ( just like the way I made this turkey sandwich). Don't forget to glue the wings on the sandwich with some cream cheese if you are packing this into a lunchbox.

A Cute Turkey Sandwich for Thanksgiving

Tweet Pin It Now!

Gobble gobble.....
Canadian Thanksgiving was on October, so it has already passed. However,since most of my readers are from the States, I decided to make a turkey sandwich for them!
Does it look so much like the apple turkeys  I made two weeks ago?

This turkey is made with 2 slices of bread, 2 slices of bologna, lettuce, bread crust, candy eyes, cheese and red pepper. I think it looks cute even without the bologna sticks out! Also, if you don't have the candy eyes, you can use peas, nori, olive or fruit leather for the eyes.

Halloween season is over >,< No more spooky lunches, and it's time to put away those ghost cookie cutters. It took me more than 2 hours this morning to take down all the Halloween decoration in the house. um...I think it will take me another day or two to get used to a living room without skeletons and spiders hanging around!
Anyway, I'm showing you this simple house sandwich today. Hope you like it ^,^
