Doctor Who Blog Hop -- Waiting for Who

You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this hop! We've done quite a few hops with the Bento Bloggers & Friends group but this? Oh ... this one makes me all sorts of wibbly wobbly inside.
Unless you're a new follower, you have probably guessed by now that I'm a huge Doctor Who fan. Waiting for this hop (and the new season!) has left me feeling a bit like poor little Amelia Pond sitting in the back yard waiting for that beloved Vworp-Vworp sound of the TARDIS. In fact, it was that feeling that inspired my lunch: 
Well, that feeling and this screen capture:
Now, my John is only six years old and has a tendency to not think that he can handle anything that might be deemed as scary. He loves cartoon monsters and computerized zombies, but he isn't real keen on any that appear "real" on tv. I figured that because of this I would have to wait at least a couple of years until I could really introduce him to Doctor Who. Thanks to bits and pieces and YouTube clips, though, John is becoming a little Whovian!
I was thrilled to finally be able to make him a Doctor-ed lunch and it has three of his favorites: a Dalek, Eleven, and an Adipose*.
*(Yes, I am fully aware that Ten was the one who met the Adipose. Same character. Different face. Your argument is invalid.)


Now click on the TARDIS and travel on over to see what's going on over at Bento for Kidlet and then continue your travels from there! (I do highly recommend that you also take some time to check out her past Doctor Who posts!)

    1. I know that we always say "oooh you need to at least start with the beginning of 9" but, really, you could skip to the beginning of 11 and not miss a whole lot. Well, you would miss a whole lot but you wouldn't feel lost story-wise. (My lunch is from "The Eleventh Hour" -- the first episode of season 5 which is the first full episode for 11.) As a general rule, though, 9 and 10 should be watch together in order and 11 should be watched in order ;)
