Dr Seuss' Birthday

I love Dr Seuss so much, what an inspiring man.


"I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. It's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities." ~Happy Birthday Dr Seuss!

Green Eggs and Ham.  Deviled eggs, I put mustard and Brianna's Poppyseed Dressing, and some food based green coloring. Strawberry and bananas make a Cat in the Hat hat, red and white stripe apples, carrots and red peppers. 

Smitten Salad

Heart Salad:

Heart shaped eggs, here's how.

Heart Tomatoes

Heart Carrots

Heart Cucumbers

Heart Strawberries on the side  

Love Birds

These were so much fun! Hard boiled egg love birds on a bed of mixed rice with broccoli... Nori eyes with the face punch, carrot beaks and wings. Heart carrots, cut apples, cashews, green peppers as sides. 

Halloween

Halloween lunches for the week: 

Ghost eggs. Nori punched with regular hole punch and hand cut mouth, on a bed of greens, with rice cheese cut with my letter cutters.  We dried the apple mouth with some cashew pieces. Whole Foods had these awesome ghost potato crisps! They were so yummy and so much fun! I drew a jack-o-lantern face on their cuties. 

My little one, who is allergic to eggs, got a mashed potato ghost: 

The hot dog fingers are always a hit! So gross though! I cut the hot dogs, then boil them in water and a bit of coconut aminos , added some slivered almonds as super gross fingernails! 

Halloween Breakfast: 

I tried to make some pancake ghosts... they didn't quite turn out as I had hoped, but they are certainly creepy! 

A creepy pancake: 

And some creepy eggs: 

Dinner, which was supposed to be tentacle chicken pot pies in mason jars. I have not yet perfected the art of gluten, dairy, and egg free pie crust, so they were very difficult and frustrating to make, and I was so disappointed how they turned out, but, my kids were happy.
