Pinky Hat Santa

It’s already December now and Christmas is just around the corner. I can’t wait to see other Christmas theme bento from my bento-ers fellow. Well, today I make my first Christmas theme bento for this year, Pinky Hat Santa. Mrs. Claus accidentally put some bleach while washing Santa’s hat last year and she forgot to tell him about it. Will it be a new trend? Let’s see. :D

Hello Kitty Chicken and Vegetable Soup

It’s Hello Kitty again…..Please, don’t get bored with it.
 
Well, my husband requested Chicken and Vegetables Soup this morning. While waiting for the water to boil, something came up to my mind that why I don’t make some Hello Kitty Soup for my Elaine. I used my veggie cutter to cut the Kitty potatoes and add some Hello Kitty Pasta to the soup. To accompany the soup, I add the Hello Kitty Rice too. 

Cute isn’t it?
