Three Little Pigs!

    Yesterday I made up these cute little pig lunches for my girls. I used a sweet little pig sandwich cutter that one of my friends sent me in the mail. It was just a little cutter from Target but my store was out so she found one and sent me a envelope of goodies. She is a sweetie pie! I also used the pig face press from my Cute Z Cute to give him a face.
    The kids are falling back into the school routine even though they were sad to see break end and this mama has a new babysitting job. I also found out last week that I am allergic to wheat and soybeans. I also have several seasonal allergies and have an allergy that causes me to need to omit yeast, fermented foods and cut my sugar intake back. Whew, I have had a lot going on! I thought it might be nice to share some of my wheat, soy and yeast free lunches. So from time to time I will show you what this mama is eating.

 

    These are lunches for the kids.(These lunches are not gluten free, yeast free or soy free. This is a normal diet with NO restrictions)
Top right: Ham sandwich, strawberries, peppers, broccoli, bunny gummies and sunflower seeds.
Bottom right: Ham sandwich, side salad, grapes, cucumbers, sunflower seeds and on top I put a pack of bunny gummies to hold the seeds in place.

This is my lunch which is Gluten free, soy free and yeast free. My hubby made steaks for Easter and cooked mine separate from the others to conform to my new dietary restrictions. He was so careful not to cross contaminate. It was mighty sweet to do that for me. I think he wanted to give me a little present because this year I couldn't sneak candy from the kids.
I had a salad with red leaf lettuce, baby spinach, tomatoes and cucumbers. On the side I have my steak and some organic strawberries.

Christmas Lunch #1

Hey there! Thanks for stopping by today. A couple of weeks ago my friend sent all kinds of cookie cutters and presses to me in the mail. I got another small package from her today and I am so excited. It had all kinds of cute cookie cutters in it! For todays lunch I used some of the Christmas presses she sent. The sandwiches turned out so cute! So here is todays lunch!

In this lunch the youngest girl had two sandwiches shaped like a gingerbread boy and gingerbread girl. She had Christmas cookies and Holiday Wheat Thins. She also had apple sticks, carrots, cucumbers and sweet pepper rings. She also had a gingerbread man made out of smoked gouda cheese.

 

This lunch is for the oldest girl. She had a ham sandwich shaped as a Santa face. She also had Christmas cookies and Holiday Wheat Thins. Apple sticks, sugar snap peas and sweet pepper rings

This lunch is for the boy. He has peanut butter snowflake crackers. Holiday Wheat thins and Christmas cookies. Apple sticks and grapes.

 

We used our Easy Lunchboxes for todays lunch. I also used cookie presses and cookie cutters to make this lunch. This is our first Christmas lunch of the season. Stay tuned for lunches like this one!

 

 

 

 

 

Cute Sandwich Day!

Hello there! Today I made all kinds of cute sandwiches for the girls. Who knew bread could be so cute! I have many, many different types of cookie cutters and presses. I guess you could say I am a collector. I am just now getting around to using some of them and am adding new ones all the time. I adore cookie cutters. They are an excellent way to cut sandwiches into cute shapes and absolutely necessary in my opinion. Take a look at the cute sandwiches in todays lunch!

This lunch is for the oldest girl. She had a flower shaped chocolate hazelnut spread sandwich. P.B.&J. trail mix and homemade grahams. Also she has sugar snap peas, sweet pepper strips and apple slices.

This lunch is for my cuddle bug and youngest girl. She is using our pink and purple Lunch Blox boxes today. She has a cute sheep and two mini cow chocolate hazelnut spread sandwiches. P.B.&J. trail mix and Annie's Bunny mix. She also has sugar snap peas, carrots, apple slices and celery used to make the grass in the pasture!

This lunch is for my ten year old. She is using our Goodbyn Bento box today. She has turkey star shaped sandwiches. P.B.&J. trail mix with two star shaped homemade grahams and star shaped pretzels. Also celery, carrots, apple slices and peanut butter for dipping.

And last but not least the boy is using our blue and orange Lunch Blox set today. He has apple slices and grapes. Pretzel shapes with peanut butter. Homemade grahams and P.B.&J. trail mix.

I love making all the cute sandwiches. I know the really like to get them too. My youngest girl loves all the animals in her lunch box. She is such an animal lover. The two older girls love them too. In todays lunch I used many different shaped cookie cutters. The mini cutters came from local stores. The sheep cutter came from Sur La Table. They have great cookie cutters and much more. Great prices too. Click on the name and it links you to the online store. The Lunch Blox can be found at Target or Rubbermaid. Have a great day!
