Bento#56
My wisdom tooth is bothering me for 2 days now, and I’m still thinking if I should get it extracted. It’s a minor surgery, but it’s painful as I’ve done it before. Gee….not again!
I was a monster mommy yesterday, and I didn’t have mood to be nice to my kids. Thus, I wanted to show them that I’m sorry about my behaviour and try to show them that I love them a lot. Today’s bentos have lots of hearts, representing my love for them.
Each bento has heart shaped French toasts, 2 quail eggs, some sausages, heart shaped strawberries and 2 tiny citrus fruits which look like tangerine, but not tangerines! I bought the wrong fruit.
I slotted in some strawberry jam in the mini mayonnaise containers.
I need to help the kids to peel of the skin of the fruit, and if you know what’s the name of it, let me know! I bought the wrong pack, and there are only Thai words on the label, so I’m not sure what they are. They taste sweet, but not as sweet as tangerines.
I used the multi cutters to shape a shape on the quail eggs. It’s pretty easy to be done, and as long as you have smaller cutters, you can try it out. I shall practice more in making faces on food since my kids like it and the “faces” are still in place by late afternoon if I keep the bento boxes upright.
I didn’t use lots of picks this time but just packed in a pair of fork and spoon by Ciao and strap the bentos with straps given by Arlene. I wonder why I can’t find cute straps in various design here at Daiso and Sanrio?




Wah lauu…you really have A LOT of bento boxes and tools hor.
Khongfamily, and more to come soon. LOL! Siao liao, bought so much.
i do that sometimes too. Try to tell Kimberly that i love her by packing her a bento meal.
And hyour post reminds me that I have yet to make use of the Hello Kitty sauce container that I got from Chooi Peng. They are so pretty I hesitate taking them out of their original packaging. haha.
lots of love there….hopefully yr kids managed to catch them!!
cutting d shape on d quill eggs doesn’t looked easy to me….is it difficult to find where the egg yolk position??
Allthingspurple, go use the HK containers! Your girls will love them.
Jacss, it’s quite easy as I rolled the eggs in boiling water for awhile before leaving them to boil. Most of the time, the yolk will be in the middle then. You can give it a try.
