I draw on her bags and she draws on mine and we make a great event of revealing the final drawing to each other every night or morning (depending on when we make our lunches). It really is a fun little thing that we share. In an effort to share our creativity with you all, we have been photographing our lunch bags every day. Choose your favorite and comment about it. Or ask why we drew a certain design. Sometimes the explanations are hilarious. Here they are:
