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 [...]

The Three Obentos!

August 12, 2009 Beef

Let it be known that when you’re on a bento blogging hiatus and people start posting nasty comments about your slackass or your aunties fire up the coconut wireless wondering if you’re still alive, it’s probably time to pick up your good old Wordpress pen and start writing again. I do apologize to everyone who [...]

Onigiri Brigade (Bento 371)

June 17, 2009 Chicken

Someone commented yesterday to say that my plant looks like radish seed pods, so I looked it up and the flowers matched and the pods look the same. I went outside to check again and sure enough, there’s a pathetically skinny looking daikon under the dirt now. Apparently people like to eat radish seed pods, [...]

Donburi Bento and Class Photos

May 18, 2009 Chicken

Today I have oyako donburi, but in a bento I put together rather hastily so that I could have a relaxing morning. I took the picture at work.

I’d brought green onions to chop up and put on top before the photo, but I found myself to be extremely lazy, so that ended that. The recipe [...]

Teddy Bear Bento (340)

April 6, 2009 Chicken

Mr. Pikko and I spent the night vegetating on the couch catching up on Celebrity Apprentice until like 1:30 AM, so when I woke up this morning I just tossed stuff together and was able to make this bento in less than 20 minutes.

I’m proud to say that I’m finally using one of the cute [...]

Adventures in Bentomaking 101

April 4, 2009 Chicken

Today I taught the first of two beginner bento classes for the Temari Center, a center for Asian & Pacific arts here in Honolulu. As is to be expected with me, Mrs. Procrastination, I was cramming prep work for the class last night while doing the cooking as well. I dragged the family to Costco [...]

The Last of the Mochiko (Bento 325)

March 10, 2009 Chicken

Now that I’ve come up with such a cool post subject, I wish I’d done a Last of the Mohicans themed bento or something. Maybe before I eat it I can just yell at my bento, “I WILL FIND YOU!” The office might have me committed, but I’d sure have a great laugh.
Before I get [...]

Lazy Bento and More TV (324)

March 9, 2009 Fish

Mr. Pikko was kind enough to cut up 2 hours of news for me to get this clip of my A Shirt for Sawyer bento shown on KITV News This Morning last week Thursday.

This week my Aunty C will be handing off printouts of both bentos to get to the cast via some complicated only-in-Hawaii [...]

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 by food [...]
