Making Lunch Fun, One Box at a Time

ben·tol·o·gy (ben t äləjē) Noun : The study of making nutritious and fun lunches for my daughters.

I get a lot of inspiration from other blogs. So, in hopes someone might get some inspiration from me, I've decided to post some pictures here.

This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.Proverbs 3:7-9

World Animal Day Hop

Today is "World Animal Day" so my bento blogging buddies have put together a treat for you!   We've each chosen a different animal to theme a lunch around...As you click through the hop, it will be like a walk around the zoo!!

I chose fish because the aquarium is one of our favorite exhibits at our zoo.  It's a "must see", every time we go.

  • 2 fishy sandwiches with cheese and icing eyes decorations.  I used the crust of bread for the fins.
  • Blackberry and raspberries on fishy picks
  • Sugar snap peas with ranch (they are supposed to represent the reeds)
  • "Cookies and Creme" goldfish crackers
Click here to see the next animal on exhibit at A Boy and His Lunch.
