This bento is dedicated to my old cat, Mochi, who I found out yesterday, was put to sleep. Take a look at some pictures of my pretty white whale… er, cat and see what’s inside.

Ho Ho Ho!

December 11, 2009 Beef

Last weekend I taped The Santa Clausefor the kids because when I was in high school I thought that was a pretty cute movie. About 10 minutes into watching it with the kids, I started thinking maybe it wasn’t such a great idea since the plot rotates around one’s belief in Santa and both my [...]

Gobble, Gobble! Turkey Bento (418)

November 24, 2009 Beef

It’s kind of funny that I’m doing Thanksgiving bentos with teriyaki foods, but since I’m not about to roast a turkey just to put some into an authentic turkey bento, the “real” Thanksgiving bentos will have to wait until next week. We’re buying our dinner from the Hawaii Prince this year, something that I admit [...]

Smiling Daisies Bento (413)

November 6, 2009 Beef

Is it really Friday already? Is it already November? I really don’t know where the year went, but the coming of November reminds me that I have to start Christmas shopping. I hate being that one rushing home thinking, “DID A BOX COME FOR ME???” because I didn’t order early enough. I remember one year [...]

Next up in my Halloween [...]

Beef Sukiyaki and Salted Chicken Bentos

September 29, 2009 Beef

Last night, while I was giving the monsters a bath, Buddy started complaining that his hip hurt. He made little mopey faces and I felt bad for him. Then I realized that he was hurting because of his freestyle capoeira moves last night during a “show” that the kids put on. I have no freaking [...]

Two Steak Bento

August 28, 2009 Beef

I woke up this morning feeling ambitious, so I started to cook one of the last two gigantor top sirloin steaks that Mr. Pikko bought for me at Costco last weekend. The pack cost $15 and the steaks were so huge that I could make two meals out of each one, which meant that I [...]
