It's Reptile Week over at Bento Blog Network! In honour of this (and because The Muffin just loves turtles and tortoises), I decided to make a Tortoise Bento for her lunch tomorrow:
The Muffin has about two thirds of a banana (with a tortoise sticker), a handful of grapes with some dried blueberries thrown in (and a tortoise pick), vanilla yoghurt with green heart sprinkles, and a Tortoise.
The tortoise is a salami sandwich with cheese head, legs and shell markings.
I was very pleased with my little tortoise, and a bit sad that I had to wrap him up, because it squooshed him a bit. But I just don't trust bread to stay edible overnight unless it is plastic-wrapped, and I definitely don't have time to make this sort of thing in the morning!
I hope The Muffin likes him as much as I do! You can check out all the other Reptiles here.
Oh, and I am also linking this to What's For Lunch Wednesday at BentoLunch.net.

This is so cute!
I've heard you can wrap the sandwich in a paper towel (maybe it has to be slightly damp? Then you can just put the towel in first and fold it over the food, rather than wrapping tightly.
