Frog Prince and Princess

Well, actually this was my last week bento which i forgot to post. I used green peas to make the green color rice and mould the frog using the small bear cutter. Inside the box are chicken roulade and  stir fry green bean seedling with tofu and carrot.

I'm Back...

After 1 week not doing any bento, today i tried to make one for Elaine. I still have my cough until now, the doctor gave me antibiotics for it, hopefully the medicine will help.

Elaine was so happy to see her bento today, i could see it from her expression. First time she saw it, she said: "Ribbit..Ribbit..". So, i think everybody already know what is today's bento. :)

Inside the box: Rice with green peas, chicken and tofu with sweet soy sauce, chikuwa, broccoli, carrot.

Not So Green Frog

Yippie..It's Saturday, the day i can comforting myself from 5 routine days activities. After took a shower in the morning,i  turn on my laptop and watched "Mary Stayed Out All Night" (Korean Drama ) until 10.00am.. it was so relaxing.. :)

Today i only made bento for Elaine. I used the tips from Lia Chen to make the green rice from spinach, because i don't have  edamame. I think i put too many rice in the mixture, so the color was not green enough. Since it was my first time to make the green rice, i'm satisfied with the result. Thank you for the tips, Lia.. :)

Elaine's lunch for today...

Inside the box: green rice, cheese and nori for the face details, stir fry napa cabbage, indonesian pork barbecue, tamagoyaki, and carrot.

When i looked at the picture, i think my food arrangement was really bad.It would be better to use lettuce or brocolli as a baran instead of pink container and use food pick instead of cherry tomato.

And the last one, i have to learn how to make a good food photography.. :D

Frog Prince Sandwich

I tried to make frog sandwich bento for my husband today. I made the frog yesterday from cheddar cheese, just put some coloring and then put it in the refrigerator. In the morning, i only have to cut the bread with round cutter and fill it in with hazelnut spread.

Today is the first time i make checker apple, i am quite satisfy with the result. 

For my daughter, i made girl's theme for her lunch today, which was inspired from yum yum bento box cookbook. I named it "Elaine's face", because the face was look like hers :) 

Inside the plate: rice, star shaped carrot, brocolli, potato croquette, shredded chicken, vermicile. Today ,I cook 'Soto Ayam'   (Indonesian food), so i separated the soup in another bowl.
