Hamburger Stew Bento

This morning, as I was getting ready to hop onto my bike, I decided I’d better stop and pull out the damn wedgie trying to take up permanent residence. When I was ready to resume my bike-hopping-on, I turned and saw this middle aged man walking to work with this big smirk on his face.

I hope he goes through his entire day tomorrow with his fly down.

Hamburger Stew Bento

Today I had leftover hamburger stew in one of my Zojirushi Mini Bento. Although the set is gorgeous, I have a hard time taking good photos of this set for some reason, so I really don’t like how this one turned out. I put brown rice on top of the stew before packing it up, but I didn’t think just rice would look very good.

I forgot to take pictures while I was making the stew, so I don’t have anything for Learn2Cook right now, but hopefully soon. I packed a little salad with Mr. Pikko’s lettuce and some sliced radish. I brought my dressing to work and the salad was awesome with it. For dessert, I have strawberries and blueberries again.

Yay, forward progress at last! Today biking was still awful, but it was slightly less awful nonetheless. I’m not gasping as much for sure.

On my way home someone rear ended a car just after they drove past me. I sure hope it wasn’t due to laughing at my Wall-E backpack. 🙁
