It’s beginning to look a lot like…

December 2, 2009 Christmas

…it’s time for Christmas bentos! :D After the Halloween and Thanksgiving bunch of seasonal bentos, having holiday themed lunches just seemed like the right thing to do from now on. I won’t curse myself by saying I’ll do a lot of Christmas bento because by now I’m sure you all have noticed that once I [...]

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 [...]

200K Bento Contest – Vote!

February 5, 2009 Contests

I received 24 wonderful, creative entries for my bento contest celebrating my 200k hits. Then I looked at my counter today and thought, “Whoa. What the heck? I’m almost a quarter to 300k!” What does this mean? More contests, more often! Muahaha! I looked through each of the entries very carefully. I judged each entry [...]

Sidestreet Chicken (285)

January 8, 2009 Chicken

I had more Gina’s leftovers for my bento yesterday, but it turns out, a fly had an appointment with my bento ointment. Usually I set my alarm for 5:30, wake up, set it to 5:45, go back to bed, then repeat in 15 minute increments until 6:15 or 6:30. I find that even with this [...]

Santa Bento (282)

December 24, 2008 Chicken

We went to Costco today to get dessert for today so we can fatten up while watching the Sheraton Hawaii Bowl this afternoon. I bought a bag of bell peppers, this one no doubt doomed to rot just like all my others. I used the red one to make this Santa bento today. I used [...]

Spaghetti (281)

December 22, 2008 Pasta

I am ever so slowly closing in on Bento #300 and I still don’t have a theme yet. I have one more day for a bento and I have to try to squeeze in a Christmas theme in there somewhere. I don’t know about everyone else but Christmas just totally snuck up on me and [...]

Cornflake Chicken (275)

November 20, 2008 Chicken

I had a conference at the Ala Moana hotel on Monday, which was why I didn’t post anything. I was too busy stuffing my face with little citrus cream cheese pastries and Steak Diane, steamed fish, and watermelon. I ate a TON of watermelon and more cream cheese bites than I care to admit. The [...]

Finding Nemo (272)

November 14, 2008 Chicken

I started doing this bento yesterday morning, but ran out of time and had to abandon it, taking my hastily thrown together lunch (frozen karaage and rice) in a Ziploc container instead. This morning I was able to finish it, much to the delight of the kiddies, who clutched at my camera oohing at it [...]

Teriyaki Beef (260)

September 25, 2008 Beef

I made a cute little bento and all, but then my co-workers had to go and ask me if I was interested in walking up to Asia Manoa for some Chinese food. So of course, even though yesterday’s teriyaki beef sounded really good, suddenly it didn’t and my nose was imagining the smells of beef [...]
