Pine Needles In The Garden

Well I moved to the woods!  With the new place comes a nice BIG garden. Though I do not have a green thumb to save my life, I have been reading up a lot on organic gardening. The biggest thing I read is to mulch the garden and of course try to keep weeding. Since my garden has not been in use the weeds took over like nobodies business.  I have a wonderful deal with a neighbor, he will till the garden and fertilize it if I let him plant on a portion.  I did not blink twice when I… More

Hello Kitty Breakfast Bento

Hello Kitty Breakfast Bento for my kiddo!  We both love Hello Kitty and who doesn’t like breakfast? So a  Cute Hello Kitty Bento is the best of both worlds, plus I put as much pink as I could this morning considering we are moving and I have nothing out.

Hello Kitty herself is filled with some cute marshmallow sweets,  behind her is a bottle of strawberry syrup for the pink heart shaped pancakes that are in a red liner (thank you freezer stash). With the pink heart shaped pancakes are a few red cherries with a pink pick. Below… More

Cute Little Chicks Bento

Today is going to be in the 80′s here in Colorado feels more like Summer than Spring! I do hear the little birdies waking with me in the morning tweeting away, love that.  So they inspired me today for the Cute Little Chicks Bento.

The cute little chicks are made from quail eggs. My kiddo loves the small eggs and they are very quick to boil in the morning. I used nori for the eyes and a triangle of carrot that I par-boiled, the tops are different colored heart shape picks. The chicks are all sitting in a nest of GF… More

Little Lion Bento

Little Lion Bento came to be due to the need to use up the food in the fridge and freezer as much as possible over the next few days, because were moving.  So who knows what will show up in my bentos this week beyond the usual fruit and veg. So we shall see if creation flow easily of if I struggle and just whip it all together. Either way kiddos love it because you throw a pic or two, make a cute face and have some colors= Awesome lunch no matter what.

Today’s Little Lion Bento is made with… More

Disney’s Chimpanzee Movie Review

Disney’s Chimpanzee Movie will be in theaters Fiday April 21st. and appropriately for EARTH DAY!  I cannot tell you how excited my kiddo is to see this film. If it is similar to their last movie African Cats I am sure were in for a treat.  One great reason to go today and this week if you can is for every moviegoer who sees CHIMPANZEE during the film’s opening week (April 20-26, 2012), Disneynature will make a donation to the Jane Goodall Foundation through the Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund in order to protect chimpanzees and their habitats. How cool is that!  So everyone… More
