A very Lame St Patricks Day Lunch
This morning I woke up and looked at the calender. "hmm.. St Patrick's day...". I searched the house for green food and didn't come up with much - lettuce, pickles and an apple with a greenish tint. The boys don't like pickles so that didn't leave me with much. ..
Snack today was an apple with peanut butter (S) or cheese stick(E) and a fig newton .
Lunch was a salad, egg salad(E) or tuna salad(S) and some potato chips. Probably not the most filling lunch but the boys have a pizza party at 3:00pm so I think they will be fine.

Chicken
The boys ditched school on Friday and we went skiing instead! I have not been on my skis in 8 years (since I got pregnant with the twins - S and E) My parents have taken S and E skiing a few times a year since they were 3 years old. I went along when they were 3 (though did not ski myself) The year after that I gave birth to A and my parents took S and E skiing without me for a few years. This year A is learning to ski too so I get to join the fun! I pulled out my 20 year old ski stuff and did wonder for a minute if it really was safe to ski on 20 year old equipment that has been sitting for 8 years. I decided it would be fine since I would be confined to the bunny hill. Well it's probably a good thing that I stayed on the bunny hill because by lunch time my boots were literally falling apart! After lunch I ran behind A while he skied and people kept giving me the pieces of my boots that fell off behind me! My regular boots were way back at the car so I ended the day wearing just the ski boot lining on my feet! Here is a photo of one of the boots when it started to crack. Crazy!
I DID pack us a lunch on Friday but we were running too late for me to get a picture.
Here is E and S's snack for today. Cantaloupe and graham crackers with cream cheese. With the time change, I no longer have sunlight to take pictures in the morning. Bummer. Hopefully in a few weeks...
Lunch today was some bunny crackers, strawberries an blueberries, chicken, cookies and ketchup in the green container for dipping the chicken into.
A and I joined DADDY for lunch today! My lunch is above - yogurt, strawberries and a granola bar.
A had a hard boiled egg, strawberries, a few little cookies and pasta with butter. He REALLY wanted pasta so that he could use the little orange guy who is filled with Parmesan cheese.

A New Cheap Online Source for Bento Stuff
I bought most of my Bento stuff from a store called Ichibon Kan which used to offer it's products for ordering online. Ichibon Kan is like a Bento Dollar Store. Not the best quality but SUCH cheap prices! I was so bummed when they stopped the online service. :(
BUT I just heard of a new cheap bento store online! It is called fit All the bento stuff seems to be about $2 each! Check out the boxes and accessories.
I know absolutely nothing about his company but I'm hopeful and excited!
