Arrgh! Talk Like a Pirate Day!

.009

Yarr! It be ''Talk Like a Pirate Day'' for all ye land lubbers who didn't know! Welcome aboard the blog hop ship, The Flying Lunchman!!  Alright, that's the extent of my pirate but it was a good effort yeah? Today is my very first blog hop with the Bento Bloggers & Friends and I am super excited to participate! I grappled with whether or not to ''pirate-ify'' (yeah, my new word!) my already planned lunch...or come up with a totally new idea! Well, even though I couldn't find all the materials I wanted, I decided to stick with the plan and just pirate it up a little!


 IN THIS LUNCH: 

  • Mini Pitas w/ Krab Salad & Lettuce ''boats''. 
  • Orange Segments (to prevent scurvy)
  • Gold Dubloons!
  • Cheese water and a goldfish :P
This was my first attempt at using my food markers and while I am not happy with the cheese I think in general the effect of the two blog hop ships came out alright. Monkey saw the lunch and immediately knew what they were and was super excited about it. So it made me feel a little better. 

Be sure to check out the next lunch on me ship the Flying Lunchman by clicking the pirate flag below! It's my shipmate Amanda from Food Family Fun! Yo ho! Next lunch ahoy! Once ye return from your trip at sea, click here for the second flag, tharr the 16 lunches of Black Bread's Revenge be!


What's your little Pirate eating today? 

Happy Packing! YAR!

      Thanks I am glad you like it. I wasn't thrilled with the cheese water but it was my first attempt. Lol, for some reason your comment posted 3 times (don't be offended that I deleted the extra two!). :)
