Rainy Day Lunch

It is raining but I am not complaining because I know it is snowing many other places!
It is gloomy, cold and rainy and I packed a cheery fish lunch in the hopes it brings back the sun :)
You can even see the rain drops on my ELB lid!

We packed our Easylunchbox with sweet strawberries, orange slices, Naturebox Cranberry Almond bites and two Lunch Punch fish sandwiches with candy eyes.

Happy National PB Day!

Today is National Peanut Butter Day and for us a snow delay day, woohoo!
Of course the kids wanted to help celebrate with Peanut Butter Sandwiches:

My fifth grader packed a peanuts, pretzel, sesame stick and chocolate snack mix, half an apple and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich decorated with pieces of the snack mix and a winter hat cupcake topper in his Easylunchbox lunch box. I even found the perfect Lunchbox Love Note for today! I am nuts about you!!

My second grader also packed a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in his yubo lunch box , a peanut butter cereal bar, vanilla yogurt, some mini dark chocolate chips and Naturebox Orange Crush granola to sprinkle on the yogurt, yum! Of course, he has a Lunchbox Love Note as well!

My youngest son packed a Lunch Punch peanut butter sandwich, apples and strawberries and the same snack mix as his brother. Because it is a snow delay day all boys got to bring an organic chocolate milk to school as well.

I linked my lunch to the linky over at BentOnBetterLunches:

I recently won the Critter Cutters Lunch Punch set from my friend Kandice of {we aren't scared of sugar} and I had been wanting to use it. It was a cold and dreary morning and I thought the perfect morning for some cheery lunches!

Here is what we packed for lunch today:

I packed apple sauce and some homemade banana bread as well as an organic vanilla yogurt cereal bar to go with our Dog Lunch Punch sandwich. The sandwich is whole wheat bread with chocolate spread and organic artificial color and flavor free sprinkles. My son loved the idea of the dog in his dog house and I loved how easy it was to make this sandwich. Lunch Punches really are a fun lunch making tool!

I love how this came out. Don't you?

I also packed an Elephant Lunch Punch sandwich. Again, with apple sauce, home made banana bread and organic vanilla yogurt bar. This time the sprinkles are regular sprinkles.

I like this elephant sandwich just as much :)

The other matching utensils I had were mini chickens and since the Critter Lunch Punch does not include a chicken I used some of my bento stencils to make this chicken. This lunch as well has home made banana bread, applesauce and a cereal bar.

I cannot get enough of these sprinkle fairy sandwiches - thank you Kandice for the idea!
