I have a few new goodies out that you can check out as well. For the most part I am trying to get better since I am doing a lot of volunteering and I want to be feeling better for the kids.

I am sick. I just took some meds but yuck I hate having a cold. It’s horrible and I feel like crap. I have to say that my husband has been  making lunches and yeah I am not excited about it at all but he is doing his best. The boys no doubt love it because it’s full of cookies and rice crispy treats but when you are sick you are sick.

I have a new sampler for you at digital pink ink it’s a alpha so grab it when you can.

Now I am off to eat strawberries for their Vit C and moan on the sofa. God I hate being so sick

Holy Crow where is this week going I have no clue! It is going to fast and I am not ready. My youngest started Kindergarten and my oldest started grade 2 and it’s flying by already.

Well yesterday I made that mouse for my oldest boy. I have to tell you that I love love love when they come home and I get to see what they “ate” out of their bento’s. The whole face was gone on that mouse lol. He ate it all except for a little bit on the back. It’s a great way to judge to see what your kids will eat or not eat when they have to “bring home” a container because with brown bags it’s doesn’t matter it get’s all thrown out no matter what and the same with zip bags etc.  I noticed that with my younger son he only eats about 2 chicken’s so I need to cut down on that as well. I am the type of mama that loves for her boys to eat eat eat. I am always wanting the to eat so also like learning the lesson of less is more lol.

So now that my boy ate the mouse I know that he likes chow main noodles. I used that for the whiskers. It’s a small victory for sure but that is how it starts! My bento’s were the same at the first day. Sandwich and chicken for my youngest. Remember this week is slow starts so stock up your kitchens with cute stuff. I know I could just faint over it all LOL. I love cute stuff!!

I have made a few lunch love notes for you to put in your husbands and or kids lunches. These are what I have been using for the first few days of school. My oldest son loves them my youngest one who can’t read likes the images I put on and my husband thinks they are funny. But they are a really great way to connect with your family while they are out doing busy work. I am going to be starting my bento recipes for you this week since it will be in the full swing of things and I am going to start of super easy so if you want to follow along please come and do that. I am all ready and can’t wait to start cooking! My kitchen is school ready and it just makes life so much easier to have it cleaned out and ready to go. So let me get on with the nice sample for you if you are interested in this. It is available at digital pink ink and oscraps.

I always put little notes in my kids and husband’s lunches. I feel very passionate about making sure they have homemade lunches. Both my kids have been picky eaters and I have turned to fun ways to make their lunches more enjoyable and healthy for them. Lunch box notes is just another great way to reinforce the positive things that we have going on as a family and a great way to let your kids know you are thinking about them.

These notes are for personal use only and I am starting on my blog my bento recipes if you have a picky eaters like me and would like to get into making bento boxes for your children. It’s a fun and great way to connect with your kids.

It comes ready to print on a 8×11 sheet.
