Gingerbread Pals Bento
It’s been hard to find time to make charaben lately with the weather being chillier because I find it harder to get out of bed. Last night though, I made myself give it a go again for the first time in months and it felt really great to be back at the cute lunch game.
By the way, by “chillier” I’m talking in Hawaii terms, which is 65 degrees F. This should give you mainlanders a nice hearty laugh. (or the desire to choke my neck)
Here we have a pair of gingerbread buddies. I cut them out of spam when I was making dinner last night using a mini cookie cutter from the Wilton Holiday 6-Piece Mini Metal Cutter Set
In the lunch I have tonkatsu slices and rice sprinkled with red hana ebi to make it look a bit more festive. In the other tier I have pomegranate seeds, mango, and carrot sticks.
Here’s a closer look at them, with little nori faces. They’re topped with a brown sugar and mustard mixture. I’ll write about how to make this on Learn2Cook soon, so keep an eye out for that recipe.
For this bento, I used #030.
Yeah, I haven’t done that in a while, haha! I really hope eventually I can have a bunch of really nice sets on Flickr.

My name is Crystal Watanabe and I'm 32 years old, living in Honolulu, Hawaii with my husband and two children. I have an addictive personality and that's a terrible thing when you're into cute bentos. I own over 200 bento boxes and way too many bento accessories!. 
Not really a fan of Spam but I’d probably still eat one of those cute gingerbread spams if it was in my lunch box.

LOL! We had 11 degrees F here today… But I do remember times and places where 65 meant winter…
