Miss Domo Bento

February 26, 2010 Charaben

With too much girly girl, I put some bite back into my bento with a pink Domo onigiri. If I try to eat her, will she bite me first? See more Docubentory photos!

Wow, a two week bento hiatus. I feel like such a… turkey. Ha ha! Last week I kind of lost my drive after Monday, then come Sunday, just when I had plans for several cute Thanksgiving bento and some book reviews, I got sick. I ended up feeling better Tuesday night, but my fever came [...]

Boiled Salmon Rice Bento

September 30, 2009 Bento Love

No bento for Mr. Pikko today since he didn’t need one today. Tomorrow we’re having an office fondue party, which sounds really good. I’ll be posting a book review and hopefully my new contest as well.
Today I’m trying a third bento recipe from Easy Japanese Cooking: Bento Love, which is the Boiled Salmon Rice Bento. [...]

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 [...]

Gina’s BBQ (284)

January 6, 2009 Beef

We were going to order food from Kim Chee 7 at Westridge last night, but when I called to ask how much their family pack was, I was told the biggest thing they had was the “Special for 2″ that now costs a whopping $29.99.
What. the. hell.
Anyway, I wasn’t about to pay 120 bucks for [...]

I’m Back!

December 11, 2008 Chicken

I have three bentos to talk about today. I felt like I had to start back up again before my co-worker Junko came to riot at my desk tomorrow or something. She gets very upset when I don’t post for a long time, it cracks me up. It’s so nice to have a fan at [...]

Winners!

August 25, 2008 Pork

Okay, I owe everyone an apology for the long absence again. This week ended up turning into one long hectic string of things including a lunch meeting I forgot about on Tuesday, being part of an interview committee Wednesday, then a college meeting and lunch Thursday. I probably have an excuse for Friday, but I [...]

Chicken & Egg Salad Sandwich (198)

March 24, 2008 Chicken

Today I’m having a chicken and egg salad sandwich. With Easter, was there ever any doubt that I’d be having this for lunch today?? I’ll be eating boiled eggs for snacks for a week! I usually eat them with soy sauce, yolk tossed. I loooove boiled egg whites with shoyu, especially Kikkoman.

I used light mayo [...]

Jang Su Leftovers (197)

March 20, 2008 bento

I passed out last night with 8 Easter Baskets unfinished and so it was a good (well, not all good) thing that Baby Girl woke up this morning at 5:15 am to announce that she’d wet her bed. We finished them together and she so kindly topped it off with a nice big tantrum/meltdown. I [...]
