Ok so Monday was a holiday here in the USA so the boys didn’t get a lunch but I have to tell you what we did instead. I had bought a bunch of small dishes. Like salt pinch dishes and put a bunch of different foods into them. Like Raspberries, peanut butter, mushrooms, fried onions etc and we had a taste test of a lot of food. So now it ends up being that my oldest who didn’t like Broccoli now does lol. He didn’t know what he was eating and liked it. So I now because of our game he likes 6 new foods. Might not seem like anything but for us it was a great little family night in with some great food and we tried a lot of new ones.

I set it up like a episode of Top Chief that I saw. They had to be blindfolded and got to taste a lot of foods to guess what they were. I didn’t blindfold but I set up a tray with a bunch of little dishes in them with all sorts of food. We all took part in it and it was a blast. So today the boys had a nice assortment of fruit in their bentos. I am going to be making a nice face sandwhich tonight to share with you tomorrow.

This also came about because I was reading these articles and thought I would pass it along. We need to stop the craziness of hurting our children with process junk that can kill them. We need to as parent’s to stop this and start fueling our children for greatness.

There are tens of thousands of links. If anything  just have a look. Since we want to be healthy cooking for our bento boxes. Try not to put any of this junk in. I  volunteer at my boys school so you would be surprised at what parent’s put in for lunches. It doesn’t do any favor for the child when their lunches are laced with process foods and sugar. That is my opinion anyway!

Ok so I was knocked out last week for sure and I have a lot to catch up on. I didn’t get any bento’s made since I was so sick. Uuug so let’s start again next week shall we? 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 volunteer twice a week with extra stuff on the side. Anyway here is a look of my newsletter for this week

Also the whole store is on sale for 35% off since we are back to school so enjoy! No coupon needed!
