Not such a great picture


I was in a hurry this morning so I sort of rushed the picture taking. Top: Chicken and red pepper curry and two heart shaped onigiri. Bottom: Sliced mango, kiwi, and grapes. I used Glad press and seal on the curry container and it really worked to keep it from spilling out. Yay.

Onigiri bento


This was today's bento. Two stuffed onigiri, star shaped boiled egg, cheese cubes and mangoes, kiwi and grapes. I'm trying to get faster at making the bento. I was almost late to work this morning, arg.

First Bento



This is a bento I made about a week ago but didn't get around to posting til now. It was three color donburi (seasoned ground beef, sliced snowpeas, slightly sweet scrambled egg all over a bed of rice) and tomato/cheese mini buns. More to come.
