Lunch Made Easy: An Apple A Day...

Little Miss loves making SunButter & Honey Apple Sandwiches. So, I thought I'd make her an fun apple themed bento box to go with one of her favorite sammies for Monday's lunch.
School is on Spring Break, but she'll be enjoying this "apple a day" EasyLunchboxes lunch with her sitter. 
An apple shaped cookie cutter and SurfSweets Top 10 Allergen Free Gummy Worm is a simple way to add some allergy friendly fun to an otherwise plain looking sandwich:

Lunch Made Easy: Happy Halloween!

Right now, it's raining and thundering outside. It's suppose to continue through tomorrow (Halloween). 
1) That stinks for taking photos - no natural light, lol, and 2) Trick or Treating might be a bust if it's crummy weather. Boo!
At least we can have fun with lunches, right? RIGHT! Woo!
For Little Miss' Halloween School Lunch, I made her an EasyLunchbox filled with vampires, bats, and creepy crawlies. What could be better than that!? ;)

Halloween Cute Food & Party Table Decor Ideas #AllergyFriendly #GlutenFree

I love Halloween.

I know for families with food allergies it can be a scary time, but once you learn what works best during "trick or treating" time for your kids, it can be an enjoyable night with lots of laughs and silly costumes.

The same goes for Halloween parties. I love coming up and making cute themed foods and decorating my house for the holiday.

Halloween can be everything from oranges, black, greens, purples, pumpkins, spiders, vampires, ghosts, and more.

Here are some of our favorite Halloween party tips & fun food ideas to make your party a success!

Beary Special Birthday Ideas! {Bear Party Theme}

Coming up with budget friendly and creative birthday party ideas is something I love doing. 
You don't have to spend a fortune to create an unique and fun themed party for your kids.
Last year, Little Miss had a "Bear Themed Birthday Bash". When my friends at Surf Sweets heard this, they asked me to share some of our beary special birthday ideas on the blog!

@SurfSweets Snack Mix {Allergy Friendly & Gluten Free} #Recipe

We've really been focusing over the last year to cut out artificial colors, dyes, and GMO's as much as possible. It happens sometimes - let's face it - but if we can cut it significantly down, I feel like that's a great start!
Thankfully, we have Surf Sweets as a convenient and delicious treat. 
Surf Sweets are an all-natural organic gummy candy & jelly bean company. They are Top 10 Allergen Free, Non-GMO, Free from Corn Syrup, Gluten, Artificial Colors, and Artificial Flavors. And delicious!
It's great knowing my daughter can snack on these at school or as a treat for dessert, at the movies, etc. and get 100% Vitamin C per serving! 
That's why I wanted to take them a step further and create a yummy Snack Mix that we could enjoy as a family that same way. Great packed up for lunch or snack at school, served as a class treat, or even a container to munch on at the drive-in, at the park, or while camping. Who doesn't love a delicious trail mix?!
