The “Fishing for goldfish with pretzels.” Bentos.

*GASP* Yesterday, my youngest tiny princess came home and told me one of her friends told her that, her lunch wasn’t very cute today! #lunchtimefail? I had to redeem myself today. Once again both lunches are the same. I’m lovin’ this!!

Tiny princess A’s lunch 10/16/12

Tiny princess K’s lunch 10/16/12

Here’s what I packed

• Apple sauce in a little dipper
• S’mores trail mix (enough to make 3 teeny tiny s’mores)
• Pretzel “fishing poles”
• Cream cheese “bait” in the mushroom cup
• Chocolate covered sunflower seeds
• Salami “boats” complete with boy and girl passenger food picks
• Carrots with ranch in shooting star cup
• Rice cake “Pond” with goldfish crackers

I absolutely cannot take credit for this adorable idea. I first saw the goldfish pond from a personal facebook friend whose daughter created this for her as a snack! I thought it was way too cute to not use in a lunch someday and today was that day. :o) All you need is a rice cake, some spreadable cream cheese with a drop of blue food coloring, and some goldfish crackers. The pretzel fishing idea came from HERE. I used cream cheese instead of peanut butter for our “bait”. I have another idea for this lunch so you may see it revised and revisited in the near future. ;)
