Muffin Tin Swap!

I got my package yesterday from my Muffin Tin Swap partner! And I just have to say... I got HOOKED UP!!! My swap partner was my good friend Jamie at Momma's Playground. I was so excited to learn she was my partner!

Anyway, my "wish list" was Bento stuff. I didn't have anything Bento but love seeing other Bento lunches and wanted to do Bento lunches, too! (I'm sure I said Bento enough here... Bento...) This is what Jamie sent me:

WOW! I just love everything! I would post pictures of each individual thing, but that would be a long post. :) So here are a few.

Look at these super cute princess cookie cutters! Jamie totally had Ashlyn in mind when she saw these. :)

I thought these liners were the cutest things ever! I almost don't want to use them. :)

I love these picks, too. So cute!

There were also two Bento boxes, more picks, dividers, cutters, and rice molds. I used one of the rice molds last night, actually! We decided to have rice as a last minute side dish with dinner and I made a rice bunny for Ashlyn. She's not eating much right now because she's teething so she didn't eat it, but she still thought it was cool! I can't wait to use everything! I'm going to be doing an extra special Bento MTM this week! :) Thank you so much, Jamie!

Muffin Tin Monday Swap!

I had a great opportunity to join in the Muffin Tin Monday Swap that Michelle over at Her Cup Overfloweth hosted. For awhile now I have looked forward to heading over to her blog every Monday to check out what everyone did for Muffin Tin Monday. I never joined in because, well, Baby Girl wasn't eating a lot of table food. She has started to try a lot of new table foods now, though, so I thought I might as well jump right on in!

A bunch of us signed up and we were given partners to send an MTM package to. I had wonderful luck and got Amanda from Funny Days with Mommy and Maddie as my partner. I have followed her blog for awhile now and always enjoy it! Anyway, she sent me a wonderful starter kit:

Silicone muffin tin, silicone heart-shaped and circle muffin cups, sprinkles, and super cute food picks!

Here is a close-up of the food picks. The pinwheels are just extra cute!

I may have to do "modified" MTM's for awhile, since Baby Girl doesn't exactly have a huge variety in her diet yet (being 11 months old), but I'm really looking forward to starting this tradition with her. I've said that I'm going to start the Monday after she turns 1, but we'll see if I can wait that long!! :) Thank you so much for the package, Amanda!! And thank you, Michelle, for hosting the swap!
