What Animal Is This?

Start of a new month and exam is here soon. Stress…Stress….Stress….

The kids wanted a bunny sandwich AGAIN but I thought otherwise. I saw a really cute picture of a raccoon on a baby toy and decided to make it into a sandwich. I drew the picture on a piece of paper and cut out the seaweed on the cheese. I gathered all my round and circular molds to create the raccoon eyes and nose on the cheese. Took me awhile to cut the seaweed and I was wondering if the final product would turn out cute.

As usual, I used my trusty round mental ring again cut the bread that was filled with peanut butter jam.

I personally find it very adorable. However, my kids didn't know what the animal was. One thought it was a panda and the other said it was a bear wearing eye mask. *sweat*

I told them it is supposed to be a raccoon!!!

This sandwich is definitely not Kung Fu Panda wannabe, ok! It is a RACCOON!

It gives me the inspiration to make a panda sandwich for the kids next time.

Raccoons or bears, they are just adorable!

Quick & Easy - Sandwich Bag

I have to admit I don't feel like making cute sandwiches this week but my kids still need their food. Sandwich bag is the easiest as I am free to decorate the bags. Too lazy to even make sandwich, I bought some buns from a bakery and put into colored sandwich bags. 

Added their favorite stickers to the sandwich bags instead of drawing on it. They are not really into Disney Frozen anymore (what am I gonna do with the hand drawn Elsa sandwich bags now? *sweat*) and one of their new favorites is the Winx Club. I just added a short message on the bag for a personal touch.

They seem happy with the arrangement as they get to choose the stickers for the bags too.  

WIN-WIN situation! :)

Last Minute Dinosaur Sandwich

The small one has not fully recovered from her stomach flu so I wanted her some bread with grape jam to bring along in a sandwich bag today. The elder one said she didn't want any sandwiches but changed her mind this morning and I was only left with ten minutes to get their food ready. I dug out a dinosaur sandwich cutter and used a chopstick to poke the eyes and I was done! 

With time to spare, I decorated the sandwich bag warning them of danger in the bag. Hehehe....

Cute Sandwich Bags for Learning Journey

The kids are going for the Learning Journey today and the usual sleepy head was soooo excited that she woke up at 5am. After failing to wake her sister, she squirreled under my sheets trying to wake her parents instead. Sorry but I just continued sleeping. Hahaha…

I don't make any sandwich for them today since they are going out. The sandwiches would be distorted by the time they have a break. I bought buns from a bakery and put them into very cute animal bags that were meant for rice balls. 

They were so excited to choose the designs this morning. These bags are not cheap so I only use them when they go for school excursion. Love these bags not only because they are so cute but the design enable my kids to eat the food without touching the food at all. Clean! 

They took the blue elephant and brown bear today. I am only left with 2 more bags for their next excursion. 

Don't you agree that the bags are super duper cute?

Happy Friday! 

Sandwich Bag Deco

Making last batch of tarts today and hopefully I can have the energy to make sandwiches for the kids tomorrow. I bought some buns for them to bring to school today.

I used a colored sandwich bag, added a sticker and a personalized message for the kids. I shared the idea with a friend and now she writes words of encouragement for her kids on the sandwich bags during exam period! :)

The sandwich bags come with stickers but I prefer to use my own for now. I have some chinese words written on the stickers. I really hope my kids can pick up some chinese words along the way.

Believe! You Can Do It!

Once upon a time, when Disney Frozen merchandises were rare and few, I bought plain sandwich bags and drew the pictures using permanent marker. The kids were delighted of course! The classmates even asked for their used sandwich bags.

Whenever I feel lazy, I will dump the sandwich into the colored sandwich bags, paste some pretty stickers on it or write some encouraging words for the kids. And off they go to school with it.
