It's Always Something

There are times that I don't realize my age. I wouldn't call it denial, but I would call it being forgetful. I work at a place where, if I had to take a guess, the average age is about 25. And I think I'm being pretty generous there. So yeah, I forget about my own age sometimes. That being said, I have those aha moments where I realize that I lack in the "keeping up with the times" department. I know that high school boys have long shaggy 'dos, but I still want to take Kyle to get a haircut. I know that Syd is going on 11 and is a girl, but I still want her to wait until she's 13 before she starts shaving her legs. I know that most of the world is doing their part to be just a little bit nicer to Mother Earth and be just a little more green. Ok, so that I'm doing, too. But one thing that kind of stopped me in my blog trolling tracks today was ..... (drum roll please).... bento lunches. Are you kidding me? I carry around Syd's lunch box from last year with whatever I can get to fit into the thing. Where have I been for however long? They are brilliant! I don't think I'm the last to catch some Bento Madness, but clearly I'm a little late. I'll tell you what, though, I'm hopping on the bandwagon! I did a web search and an image search, and I'm pretty excited! Hopefully it'll spark a little more creativity in my lunches since for the last 3 weeks or so, I've had a PB&J sandwich on some type of wheat or multi grain bread. It may be a little while, but stay tuned, I may surprise you with a pretty, edible concoction! Oh, and here's a another couple of pics I thought I'd throw into the mix. They were taken at Mission Beach a few weekends back. I love my family!
