Stars and Stripes Forever Bento


Titled "Swimming Upstream"
because sometimes
 getting
 anything
 done 
around here 
feels like swimming upstream.


So when the inspiration comes 
to make 
star shaped 
grilled cheese sandwiches, 
I jump 
up 
and
 down
at lunchtime.


Stripey stripe green bell peppers, 
tangy mango salsa (a go go),
walnuts (7 a day),
and
a sweet treat, Hi-Chew.
(bless you)

C'est un nomade...


This is a wonderful little box. I love the pale turquoise and yellow combination and the little backpack the bear wears. The bear is not happy or sad, just traveling dot dot dot.

I used to walk everywhere when I was a child and young adult. That's quite an accomplishment growing up in Southern California. I knew all the routes that didn't have mean dogs. I'd strap on the pack, wear comfortable shoes, and get cruising dot dot dot

Here's one of my lunches last week. Ham and cheese on baguette, lettuce, mango, radishes, celery, and a plum.
