Friday means pancakes

Pancakes are not a breakfast food to me. I just don't like sweet foods for breakfast. It might be a holdover from my childhood when my Mom was very healthwise and didn't allow sugar in the house. The only exception to this rule is yogurt. I love yogurt for breakfast. In any case, pancakes in our house are good for lunch or dinner but they never appear on the breakfast menu. And I enjoy using these frozen miniatures for bentos because they are so easy to make and I can do so many cute things with them!

Today's pancakes have a thin layer of pink icing to make pancake sandwiches. I first took my tiny heart cutter and cut a heart into the center of the top pancakes.

In the bento: Baby corn covered by a provolone Hello Kitty face, baby tomatoes, soy sausage link,provolone cheese hearts, pancakes sandwiches with icing, an apple bunny and two lemon slices.

Unfortunately I did not pay attention to the type of box that I was using and packed it way too full - the lid wouldn't fit on! There was some major rearranging to get the food to fit without being squished by the lid.

I'm not big on pancakes for breakfast either, I can't eat anything that dense first thing in the morning. I love the little hearts and the HK cheese. :)

wow, you have full pack of pancake! Allow me to take one or two pieces so you can nicely close the lid... *hahaha..I am kidding*
