So today in honor of the first day of spring, I made Nico a spring-ish themed bento. He took it in his yellow Tootsie Roll Tootsie Pop box with the owl. You know, the one asking "How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?" LOL It is a nice roomy box.
He has a baby chick sammich, red grapes with a bunny pick, baby carrots, and edible Easter grass with bunny shaped marshmallows. Not pictured is his juice box and ranch dressing for the carrots.
The baby chick is made from sliced cheese, ham, and bread with ham circles for his cheeks (sorry but one was slightly misplaced! LOL) The eyes are colored on with edible, flavored markers, and the beak is a piece of carrot.
The edible grass is neat! It is supposed to have a green apple flavor but its just kind of sweet and dry. You have to suck on it a minute to get any flavor out.
Nico gave it a 2 thumbs up!
