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 [...]

Hello Kitty Bento (326)

March 11, 2009 Pork

I’ve been told by my cousin’s husband’s aunty who reads my blog that she can’t find bento boxes in Hilo. Well! I must respectfully beg to differ. We went to eat saimin at Nori’s before Baby Girl and I hopped back onto the plane and next door to the restaurant was a store called Nori’s [...]

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 [...]

A Shirt for Sawyer (Lost Bento 3)

March 4, 2009 Chicken

When I came up with the idea for this bento earlier in the week, I immediately regretted using yellow omelet to be the blank slate for Ben Linus last week. It seemed really redundant to use yellow omelet two weeks in a row. This little annoyance aside, I wanted to do this one anyway because [...]

Hinamatsuri Bento (320 and 321)

March 3, 2009 Chicken

Yesterday on the way home I was wondering what we should get for Baby Girl since today is Hinamatsuri (Girl’s Day). After a bit, it dawned on me that I have the ability to give her a great gift… a bento to take to school! A lot of people assume that I make all my [...]

Pork Tofu Bento (319)

March 2, 2009 Pork

This weekend was rather interesting because I got my first ever fat lip courtesy of my wonderful son. We were watching tv together, but Buddy wasn’t interested in the show, so he decided to take out his plastic toy bat and swing at squeezie baseballs thrown by Mr. Pikko from the couch.
I know a plastic [...]

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, [...]

Shrimp & Egg Patties (283)

January 5, 2009 Restaurants

Christmas in 2008 was very good to me bento-wise. All three of my gifts were bento items! Mr. Pikko and the kiddies got me a Zojirushi Mr. Bento Stainless-Steel lined Lunch Jar, Silver, which I’ve wanted for forever. Elmer from JPButton.com was in a store in Japan when he saw a bento book, which he [...]
