Pumpkin Carving Madness

October 24, 2009 FFXI

This year, Allakhazam is hosting it’s third annual Final Fantasy XI Pumpkin Carving Contest. It started out in 2007 when on a whim, I made this all-game contest at the very last minute. The majority of the entries that year were FFXI-themed, so the following year we tried to make it bigger and focused it [...]

The Anti-Climactic Bento 400

October 21, 2009 Charaben

I had meant to make Bento 400 over the weekend, but after a stomach virus began weaving its way through two family members, I had to put it off. Monday I stayed home with Baby Girl and then on Tuesday, she was fine and ready to go on a field trip which required….. home lunch!! [...]

It’s a Moogle Bento, kupo~! (306)

February 12, 2009 FFXI

Bento the Hotel

December 17, 2008 Uncategorized

Yes, I know, my subject line is really cheesy and lame. Lately all those old catchy rap and hiphop songs from the 90s have been getting stuck in my head, Back to the Hotel being one of them. I think it started at the basketball game when they played Hip Hop Hooray and Jump Around. [...]

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 [...]

Visit to Square Enix

July 29, 2008 Chicken

Alrighty so someone finally commented asking if I’m on vacation so I figured I better quit the silence bit and get off my butt and post something before you all start to think I died or even worse, that I lost interest in bentomaking. *gasp*
I’d mentioned that I would be attending Square Enix’s Premier Site [...]
