Creative People

I used to be creative. NO, really, I did. I used to make all sorts of crafts. I used to cross stitch. I used to scrapbook. I used to SELL scrapbooking supplies. My scrapping room hasn't seen hide nor hair of me since last April. It makes me sad and yet I'm very happy with my priorities right now: my health and my family.

However, on rare moments, the sadness won't go away....and one of them is right now. I read a Bento box blog called "Another Lunch". She makes me feel sad and quite inadequate. I could only wish to be this creative....or have that much time to be that creative....or to have the desire to spend that much time in the kitchen preparing the creative food.

Once upon a time, I would have come up with these fantastic ideas...or maybe a slightly less extravagant version. Instead, I will have to enjoy reading about someone else's explorations in the kitchen and copy when I can.

Bento Box Basics for Back-to-School | Alphamom

As school begins again, I'm constantly looking for ways to get my kids eating healthy foods. Let's face it. Eating a few carrots can be boring, but if you present them correctly, you might actually peak your kids' interest. Here is a link on Bento Boxes. I don't have one, but I think I'm going to give some of her ideas a try. The article was written by Wendolonia. Check out her blog. It's full of awesome ideas as well.
