The Girl has a lunch inspired by The Witches.  She has a "half nibbled" English muffin with cocoa almond spread and raisins around the edges, corn puffs, and a little carrot mouse on top of a bed of lettuce (that could be cress, for the soup, right?), along with "Formula 86" to turn children into mice, which is actually some banana apple sauce, and she also has some strawberries.

Enjoy the Blog Hop - Check out what Cristi over at BentOnBetterLunches has for you, and then hop around the other Bento Blogger and Friends to see the whole group!
