What you get when mommy is sick (kindergarten Bento #9)

I am sick sick sick.  I put off making lunch until 20 minutes before kidlet needed to leave for school, and this is the result ;)  He loved the rocket in practice lunches, so I went ahead and did that again for him, so it would be a *little* cute! 

Ham and cheese sandwich with cheese bear (that looks kinds alien with the cream cheese showing through the eye holes — another sign of the “I feel awful and want to get done so I can lay down” rush!), surrounded by blueberries.  Orange mini muffins and peas.  Lemon pepper for his peas in the sauce bottle.  (Lemon pepper is almost always a sure way to get him to eat something he is indifferent about; he likes the flavor a lot).

Time taken?  2 minutes on the bear and 5 minutes to throw the rest together.  Super speed bento! 

And now I’m going to lay down and hope Baby L lets me relax a little bit!

    I love that you put the lemon pepper in a little sauce bottle so he gets to sprinkle it on himself. 🙂

    He really likes it too! It’s a good use for the hordes of soy sauce containers that I have and can’t use for actual *soy sauce* since we don’t eat a traditional box that would need soy sauce! =)

    All your bentos are beautiful!! 🙂
    I have similar method to make my 4 year old eat any type of steamed veggies… a little bit of soy sauce in a cute container 😉

    I have to visit more often and get some inspiration… my daughter would love that.
