Hey, busy bees! It's Dzung! I hope you guys had a wonderful week.
Today I am back with another back to school episode, except this time we're going to get a little crafty.
So put on your artiste hat and tap into your creative side.
You guys, there's about to be a TON of changes,
both to my life and this channel, so make sure you're subscribed below.
I am not having another baby. Whenever I tell people about the news coming up,
they're like "are you having another baby?"
And that's a no, but you guys will find out very soon next week, so yeah, I can't wait to share it with you.
But in the meantime, also make sure you're following me on Instagram at @Honeysucklebeez
Because I will share the latest updates on my insta story.
Alright now let's go ahead and get started on our fun sandwiches.
Alright, first I'm starting with two slices of white bread
Then on one side, I'm going to add mayo. The other I'm adding mustard.
I like Dijon mustard, but you can also use yellow mustard.
Now I'm laying on two slices of ham, a slice of cheddar cheese.
Ham and cheese! Cool. Now that we have our sandwich assembled,
we're going to work on our animal face.
Taking a large round cutter, I'm just going to take off a large chunk off the middle top.
This looks good.
Then taking a slice of cheese and a large piping tip,
I'm just going to cut out large circles. These are going to be the eyes!
I'm going to glue them down with some mayo.
Then I took a small Kalamata olive, cut it in half for the eyes, and then for the nose and feet,
I use carrots. Just cut them out into the shapes that you want.
And finally for the wings, I took the extra meat that I cut out
Position them, and if they look good to you just go ahead and glue them down with some mayo
How cute is that?
Hoo-hoo! Fly away, owl!
Fancy sandwiches are great, but
honestly, I love a simple ham and cheese sandwich. Makes me feel like a kid again.
Especially with these animal face designs.
For the next sandwich, I'm taking a slice of wheat and a slice of white.
I'm just going to cut out two circles.
I'll layer the bread circles on top of each other, and then I'm going to cut them into strips.
Next, I'm going to spread on some peanut butter
and then some honey, and then I'll close up the sandwich with the other slice of bread.
Flip the middle bread over so we get stripes, and then taking the excess bread
I'm making a little triangle, and with the extra wheat bread, I'm cutting out hearts to make another sandwich layer.
And finally for the eyes, I have a mini marshmallow that I stuck a mini chocolate chip in.
Buzz buzz buzz! Hey, busy bees!
Honestly, who knew making lunch could be so much fun?
I cannot wait until Erisy is old enough so that I can make these fun sandwiches for her lunch. Or with her!
I feel like this is a really fun hands-on project
that you can do with your kids, or if you guys are still in school,
spice up your lunch so that it's not boring. You're never too old to play with food!
For our next one, I have a white slice and a wheat slice. Put them on top of each other
And then I'm just going to cut them into thirds at an angle.
Now I'm taking a slice of white bread. Add on some mayo and mustard
some turkey and I'm using havarti here, but you can definitely use swiss cheese.
Now with the extra bread that we cut,
I'm taking the white slice, placing it upside down with the point towards the bottom
and then the wheat bread. I'm just going to flip them over as well
With the bottom towards the top. This looks good.
and then for the eyes. I just cut out two circles of cheese.
and then now I can start building the face.
For the pupils, I'm using the tip of the olives, and then for the nose another olive that I just cut in half
Put it down sideways.
You guys see where I'm going here?
and then for the wagging tongue,
I cut out a small piece of ham.
and then for the ears, just two triangles of cheese.
It's Ollie!
Hey, Ollie, here's a bone. Go fetch!
Aww, it kind of looks like Ollie!
My Ollie sandwich.
Alright, last one! I have two slices of wheat bread
I'm just going to add some mayo on each side
some mustard, then a slice of smoked Gouda, some salami
And for this one, again, I'm just cutting circles for the eyes.
And then for the snout, a large oval piece
two olive slices for the nostrils and the ends for the eyes
For the tongue, I'm going to add in another slice of salami.
I'm going to move everything down; his face is a little too high.
To add some horns, I just cut out some cheese triangles
and stuck them in between the bread!
Now for the ears, I'm just taking another round cutter and just going towards the edge of the bread on top
and cutting off the corners.
Oh and remember to glue everything down with mayo once it looks good to you.
I had a little too much fun with this episode, and I got a little carried away playing with my food.
I call this the homestead life.
Back-to-school was always one of my favorite time of year because you just get that excitement to start new again.
It's like another refresh. You get your haircut, new clothes, new school gears,
Seeing your friend, all of them again, from a long summer break.
That was like my favorite time, just kind of getting reacquainted with everyone and meeting new friends.
Anyways, let me know what you guys are excited most
whether you're still in school or if you're a mom with your kids going back to school
I bet you're looking forward to that free time
but let me know what you're looking forward to most for back-to-school by commenting below and
Thank you so much for watching, you guys. I will see you guys next Sunday. Bye!
Speaking of haircuts: My bangs! They're so short!
You know how stylists always say don't cut your own bangs
Yeah, don't make the same mistake I did you guys. Just go to a professional and get it done.
I was getting annoyed because the hair was getting into my eyes, and so I decided to snip it and
I did it a little too short so I went to someone to get it fixed, and now it's just all over too short.
So yeah. *laughs*
