Today’s bento is skull-themed, to get us in the mood for Halloween! This weekend we’ll be bringing down the Halloween box and decorating our front lawn. The kids love it and so do I… This little skull is getting it started 😉

I really like the way the head came out. I’m using sugar skull cutters I just got over the weekend and they are FABULOUSLY cool. I didn’t use the stamping part (yet) but it looks really detailed and interesting too (link below).  Instead of the stamping, I used smaller cutters to (an oval, a heart and a moon) to make the cuts in the sandwich to be like a skull. I think it worked out 🙂

The one thing I wish I could get past here is the fact that I’m packing very similar sides everyday. Have you ever bought a TON of fresh produce (like fruits and veggies) and need to use them up right away before they go bad? That is my desperate attempt with the grapes and kiwis! They just need to get used up (so sorry for so many repeats!)
