well well well... it's back to school time here in ottawa for
the wee little ones!


little rikrak is loving his fun new teacher, his fabulous arts forward classroom, & seeing all of those wonderful school friends all day again!

as mommy, i'm delighted for his joy, and to be honest... a wee bit missing my little sweetie! it was such a great summer! alas! how are you feeling about the wee ones back at school?

i saw a GREAT article in the Globe and Mail last week on the joy of packing a gorgeous healthy handmade lunch for our kiddies! indeed, lunch-packing can be a parental chore & problem-solving task! but i loved the great bento box ideas. beautiful! thought i'd share some here.

check out the whole article online for more pro-healthy school lunch ideas. they might take a wee bit longer to craft, but what a handmade lunch! {loving the use of cute reusable cupcake holders to divide some of the lunches, too!}

woohoo! yay school! lunch never looked so creative & delicious! (ps: by the way... little rikrak's lunch didn't look much like any of them today! alas... i'll keep trying! :)

  1. I fear these would take me all day to make! I'm not in the making-lunch period of mothering anymore. But I would love someone to MAKE ME some of these everyday for work! HA!

  3. Oh how cute! Since switching to a "balanced lunch" system I've been at a loss for lunch ideas...these I think I can do!

  4. Great ideas! But I think I would have to get up very early to do this, LOL. Guess I have 4 months to practice before the oldest needs packed lunches (hee hee).

  6. It is beautiful, but I have only 10 minuts to make a lunch, so it always pita with chokolad spread or pasrama and shary tamato by side.
    I wish I had a time for it
