Cora loved our Tree Hugger cutie from the other day, so I tried to turn her into a super hero

Our super hero cutie is a cheese sandwich decorated with fruit leather and more cheese. The Earth in the distance is a smushed up piece of bread. Super Tree Hugger needs some work, her eyes are kinda freaky.
The lunch is finished off with hummus and whole wheat pretzels, star fruit salad and berries and coconut yogurt for dipping.
