I enjoyed watching this come together. We did this. My hubby bought vegies wraps (that are green naturally) and we made sandwiches with them, then included pears, snap peas, and sliced bell peppers (my kids like weird things, I know). Anyway, thanks for the great idea. Lots of smiles from our home!
