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 [...]

Easy Japanese Cooking: Bento Love

September 28, 2009 Bento Love

I’ve got three bentos to post today. One is from Friday that I was too embarrassed about to blog, but since I’m writing today about my new ones, I figure I might as well throw the ugalee one in too.
Ugalee is, of course, toddler speak for ugly. This word is much more malicious and therefore [...]

Chicken Lettuce Wraps (291)

January 20, 2009 Chicken

I watched the Inaugural Parade for the first time today and I have to say that I was really impressed with the CNN/Facebook comment feed. I was watching Obama’s younger daughter looking totally bored and grouchy and I just had to laugh. I can imagine my own grouchy, grumpy kids pouting during a long and [...]

A Farewell Bento

January 14, 2009 Charaben

The bento I’ve made today is not something I’ve ever done before and not something I plan on eating. I realize this might make some people feel awkward, especially if they don’t read my blog or know what I do here every day. Bear with me though, as I’ve found that over the last year [...]

Yakisoba (288)

January 13, 2009 bento

I was going absolutely bonkers last night trying and trying to figure out why the heck my comments re-direct was sending everyone to a 500 Internal Server Error page. I finally discovered that it was a comments plugin that was messing things up, so now things are back to normal. It’s a good thing too, [...]

Mapo Tofu (250)

September 9, 2008 Pork

This past weekend was rather fun-filled. We attended the first home UH football game against Weber State University and went to the zoo for some city sponsored event. The football game was pretty fun. I’d bought Baby Girl a new Rainbow Dancers outfit cause her cheerleader one was too small. The bookstore re-did the cheerleader [...]

Lunch Lag

July 8, 2008 Pasta

I’ve been so busy lately on all fronts that I’ve been forgetting to post my lunches the days that I eat them! D: This lunch was from last week, I can’t even remember when! I’m clearly losing it. I think it was Thursday. Yes, Thursday, since Friday was a holiday!
I blame the absentmindedness on the [...]

Ribeye Stir Fry Bento

May 29, 2007 Beef

As I mentioned yesterday, we ate at Outback on Sunday night and I got the very tasty rib eye steak but only ate half of it. I’d ordered it with broccoli and so took all of that home for today’s leftovers bento! I sliced some red bell pepper for additional color and stir fried it [...]
