Monster Buns

Thanks to the kids I have a sumptuous breakfast today. Butter bun with cheese, shaved ham, egg mayo and lettuce. Yes! I added lettuce today for their sandwich. Long long long long time ago, I tried adding cucumber and it was a failure. The cucumber turned soft by recess time and the kids were not too happy about it. I hope they like the lettuce today. *fingers crossed*

There were 4 buns in a pack so just perfect for my family of four. The kids' daddy gets to bring one to work too!
This is the first time I am using a butter roll to make sandwich for the kids. I used burger buns before but never butter rolls so it's all new to me. I was not sure how it will turn out and frankly really didn't know what to do with it after I assembled all the ingredients. In the end, I decided to make use of some stickers and toothpicks to make it into 'eyes'. It was to keep the egg mayo from falling out of the sandwich.

It's a crab! No…It's a clam! No…It's a monster bun. That was what I have decided to call it since it didn't really resemble anything. Haha…


Most importantly, the verdict when they came back from school? The kids loved the buns and they wanted to bring it to school again. At least they are now willing to accept lettuce into the sandwich. *applause*
