About Me

Pikko & Baby Girl

I am a 30 year old mom of two living in Honolulu, Hawaii. In 2007, I lost 22 pounds on Weight Watchers while doing this bento blog. I was born and raised in the small town of Hilo, Hawaii. My other interests include online gaming, scrapbooking, bon dances, University of Hawaii football, and UFC. I work as an Admin/Fiscal Support Specialist at the University of Hawaii for the Live Healthy… Work Well Project and as a Senior Content Manager for the ZAM Network on the Allakhazam.com Final Fantasy XI and the Final Fantasy XIV websites.

I can be reached at pikko@aibento.net.

Question & Answer

How long as Adventures in Bentomaking been around?

I began this blog on MySpace in April 2007. I moved to Blogger and then to adventuresinbentomaking.com and finally to aibento.net.

Why did you start doing this?

I began bentoing after doing an online search for some internet friends to show them what a bento was. I found the online bento community and since I was starting Weight Watchers at the time, I decided to use bentos to regulate my portions. It worked!

Where did you get the name Adventures in Bentomaking?

One of my favorite movies to watch as a kid was Adventures in Babysitting. Elizabeth Shue was totally my hero and I couldn’t resist naming my blog after that awesome movie!

Why do you call your kids Baby Girl and Buddy?

Mr. Pikko is a very private person and I happen to agree with it in certain areas. For that reason I keep their names off my blog and anytime family members comment using their names, I edit it out and change it to their online names.
