Burger Lunch Box

Written by dave on Tuesday, February 19th 2008 under Uncategorized

I don’t want to make this an all-burger, all the time blog, but some things are just too serendipitous not to post.

From the description -

“This cute little lunch box has three compartments. One for a sandwhich, one for a snack and one for a desert.
…
The perfect little lunch box to start that conversation with the lunch room hotties!!”
