9.25.13 National Family Day

Today's lunch is all about celebrating national family day. Family's can be lots of things to lots of different people; some are chosen and some are given but all are special.


In the large section we have a family of hearts.


  • Two large black forest Ham hearts - cut with a large heart cookie cutter. 
  • Two provolone cheese hearts cut with a slightly smaller heart cookie cutter and decorated with the word family. 
    • Family was written with a toothpick dipped into food coloring and written in several languages
      • English = Family
      • German = Familie
      • Indonesian = Keluarga
      • Turkish = Aile
      • Russian = CembR (i don't know how to get my R to show backwards)
      • Estonian = Pere
      • Slovak = Rodina
      • Vietnamese = Gia dinh (again I have not idea how to make the correct symbol on my key board for the d)
      • Hawaiian = Ohana We recently watched Lilo and Stitch  this is a great movie about the changes, differences, and meaning of family. 


Top Right Section:

  • Ritz sandwich crackers with peanut butter
  • carrot half moons

Bottom Right Section:

  • A small pear - every family started with a pair of people, so to represent them today we have a little pear.
  • Muffin cup of nuts - I'm not certain about your family tree but most include a bunch of nuts. Little S's lunch has chopped smoked almonds and roasted lightly salted peanuts.
