The saucy jettatore fluttered the dovecots with the purfled celibatarian, or What's for Lunch Wednesday.

I'm back with a bento. Here's a shared snack we brought to the pool the other day:















On the left are no-bake brownie fifteens (recipe from Healthful Pursuit) and pecans, and on the right, some dried fruit and orange slices.

The chuffy bouffage cowsed with the bosky cadger, or What's for Lunch Wednesday.

Here are some recent Zachary bentos. Let's see...something with quinoa, carrots (with a hard candy hidden underneath for April Fool's Day), pita and hummus:














 Strawberries, cheese, ants on a log with figs, pretzel, sunburst tomatoes, and mixed nuts:














Carrots for dad & sunburst tomatoes for Z, trail mix, sardine and avocado sandwich (covered for Z so his friend who told him his figs looked like poop wouldn't make fun of him):














Quinoa meatloaf muffins, chocolate chip bunny cookies, clementines, sunburst tomatoes:
