I bothered with bento today! To celebrate Mushroom’s recent achievement of swimming by himself, I thought I’d make him a special water themed lunch. Unless we’re out for the day, it’s only on a Friday that I regularly make Mushroom a packed lunch as usually he either eats at nursery or we’re at home together. After swimming though, he’s too hungry to wait until we get home. Also, it gives me time to get dressed in peace (I either go in with him or go for a swim myself) while he eats.

Here’s his lunch today:

Fish-shaped egg (using egg mold) in fish silicome cup, spinach pasta and tomatoes in frog silicone cup, carrot sticks and houmus with strawberries and green heart pick.

The silicone cups and heart-shaped pick (which came free with my order!) are courtesy of Grace at Eats Amazing, who is the inspiration for anything bento themed you ever see on this blog.

Here’s some bonus fish themed food: yesterday’s afternoon snack
