Contest: The Twelve Days of Bento

December 14, 2009 Christmas

This past weekend was pretty packed with things to do. Saturday I had to do a ton of cleaning to make room for our Christmas tree, which I planned to get on Sunday. In the afternoon, we had plans to go watch UFC 107 down at Giovanni Pastrami’s because we have two coupons for a [...]

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!! [...]

Pink Animal Invasion

September 4, 2009 Sandwich

My plans for sending Baby Girl to school with a cute sandwich she couldn’t resist have been defeated by my absentmindedness. I’ve taken two trips to the market and one to Costco and in all three instances, I forgot to buy some kind of sandwich meat. Last night, I realized I could try an egg [...]

Egg Salad Sammie Bento (370)

June 16, 2009 Sandwich

I still have no clue what the mystery plant in my yard is! To give people more clues, I popped open one of the small pods and found a single brown round “seed” thing. I popped it and liquid came out. The smell was slightly vinegar-ish. ??? The fish are still fine, though Mr. Pikko [...]

Anpanman Sammie Bento (362)

May 26, 2009 Chicken

I hope everyone had a fun Memorial Day weekend. The kids have been watching this episode where Curious George and Betsy make their own miniature golf course. They watch it almost every day, so on Sunday we took them to Pearlridge where there’s the Jungle River Mini Golf course. It was pricey with no kid’s [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Turkey Sammie (266)

October 22, 2008 Sandwich

Grandma J gave me some turkey cold cuts she wasn’t going to use so I decided to eat up the last of our bread and use the cold cuts up today. I started off thinking I’d make a bunny shaped sandwich and a birdie shaped sandwich but it ended up being way too small for [...]
