Measuring up

Just in case you've been feeling pretty adequate and on top of things lately, I give you this image, from this Japanese mom who makes lunches like this one (and posts photos, nutritional information, and tool sources) on her blog. Daily. Personally, I'd also like to see the "after" photos, when her child has finished eating -- what's left? And, what does this child do when confronted with food that has not been painstakingly cut, molded, and arranged into art? Finally, what will this mom do the day her child says, "OK, I'm 25, enough already with the little animals and stuff!"?

LOL Yeah, my mom taught used the "you'll eat what is put in front of you" school of cooking :)

this is just plain HILARIOUS! I'm definitely NOT showing the photo to my kids for fear of a rebellious uprising against plain ole' pb & j.
