BLOG HOP! So much fun you'll be whistling ...

Wednesday's the first day of summer and a great day for a Bento Bloggers & Friends Summer Blog Hop!

As you've probably been able to figure out, I love movies and my favorite summer movie of all time has to be National Lampoon's Vacation. The first time I saw it I was far too young for it and still loved it. It's only gotten better for me over the years. Besides, how can you not get this song stuck in your head ....

Top Left: star shaped hard cooked egg, rolled deli ham
Top Right: zucchini and squash in sauce with a cheese Walley World sign
Bottom: Garden Delight spaghetti topped with Hamburger Helper (from one of those EasyMac kinda cups. Cousin Eddie would be proud), a cheese road, Truckster and letters (with the proper number of o's and everything! Go ahead and sing along ... we won't tell!)



Now hop on over and see what's next at Zoe's Lunchbox!

      It's got that classic guilty pleasure feel to it, doesn't it? :)

      As soon as you mentioned Hamburger Helper that night I knew I had to work it in ... if only as a small layer over something more edible ;)

    Oh, and my first car was not too far off from this wagon. My neighbors used to call us the Griswolds since my parents toted us around in the family wagon. Embarrassing!

    That was my first car! I had to get it jumpstarted every time. So I had to park near likely jumpstarting places and walk further to get where I was going!

    I hate Hamburger Helper too!
