JDaniel loves shrimp so, when I saw it on sale at one of our local grocery stores I grabbed a bag. He loves cheese too. Seeing the cheese sails on the shrimp boats made him really happy. “I know not to eat the tails,” he informed me before happily digging in.
His tin also included Italian flag colored veggies (sweet potato fries, regular french fries, and scary looking green beans), three Italian cheese mac and cheese, and Italian Cheese Cheese-Its. Columbus was from Italy after all.
How are you celebrating Columbus Day?

Love what you did for Columbus day, especially the Italian flag!
I’ll be honest, I forgot about Columbus day, but we’ll have to do something. Maybe we’ll have a pretend ship race tonight. 🙂 I love your shrimp boats. My daughter likes to eat the tails–bleh.
Great tin! I totally forgot it was Columbus Day! Until I got an email offering me a code to get 14.92% off any purchases. 14.92%? Then I made the connection!
Okay, you are way too talented! I would have NEVER thought of that!
That is awesome that he loves shrimp! Great tin!
Sadly I’m working this Columbus day.
What a wonderful tin! I love it.
Blessings,

So cute! I am considering starting a Muffin Tin Monday with Bubby.
Super cute! I love the shrimp boats!
For some reason some blogger blogs won’t let me post comments and yours in one of them. I have no idea why it boots me off. Hopefully this will work – LOVE the sail/shrimp boats…Too cute!!
Would you consider joining my new kids activity linky party at Adventures In Mommy Land?
Wow. That is a really cool way to celebrate 😉
What a clever, clever muffin theme! I had to come by and see what you did! It’s neat that eats such a variety of foods! You are soooo cool!
What a great idea!
I love it! I’ve got to start doing Muffin Tins for my girls.
Love the boats! We did a fair bit this year for Columbus Day, but it was a lot more academic. I would choose Spain colors though 🙂
You sure made a cute meal for this holiday!

I wanted to stop by and let you know that I’m running a Muffin Tin Challenge on my Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Emmas-Lunch/129254923796105. All you need to do is take a picture of your muffin tin and post it to the Emma’s Lunch page by Monday October 17th. You will automatically enter into a draw to win a lunch box for your child!
I hope you’ll join in!
You know, we didn’t do any Columbusy things. 🙁 It was my boy’s birthday though so we still got lots of celebrating in!
You are so creative!!
Such a cute idea! I have yet to offer the girls shrimp so I don’t know if they like it. Might try soon.
