Bento2016#Feb05~Miffy, Girl, Baymax & Rilakkuma

Yay! Two more days is Lunar New Year and this week will be my final week to made bento for my kids. I hope you will like my bento creations ^_^

Day 1: 1/2/16 (Monday)

Miffy's Love Letter
 On Monday, I made Miffy using the cookie cutter as outline ^_^ It's simple and quick when you have cookie cutters at home. Simply filled up the rice and add the nori details. Crabstick for red dress, broccoli and meat floss at background. Underneath is rice as well and side dishes have broccoli, fish roll crabstick and the chicken herbs inside the foil (store bought)


Day 2: 2/2/16 (Tuesday)

Shopping Girl
 On Tuesday, I made shopping girl ^_^ I think majority ladies will love window shopping, perhaps including the man as well who knows :D Well, I have some cookie cutters for the handbag, shoe (dress & hat but I didn't use cut the eggsheet out) to matched the shopping girl theme bento. The dress is made out of milk cabbage奶白菜and perfectly pretty as a dress :) Eggsheet for hair details and I added nori for extra touched.


Day 3: 3/2/16 (Wednesday)

Since CNY is coming soon, I created my 3rd CNY Theme bento. I made Baymax wears samfu and wished "gong xi fa cai" for the upcoming CNY :D Looking smart and handsome right? Haha.... The "福" nori wording was punched out using puncher (I can't remembered bought from where) Side dishes have bean curd with minced meat, broccoli and button mushroom.

Day 4: 4/2/16 (Thursday)
 
Rilakkuma & Friends
On Thursday, my darling girl requested for noodles so I stir-fried some organic charcoal noodles for her lunch. To made Rilakkuma & Friends, I used rice to made since much easier :) As usual Rilakkuma in brown rice (dark sweet sauce + rice), Korilakkuma in white rice and Kiiroitori made of cheese (carrot as beak). Side dishes have spinach and spring rolls.

Bento2016#Jan29~My CNY Bento

Time flies so fast another week passed and soon the Lunar Chinese New Year just around the corner ^_^ So this week bento sharing I started to create some CNY Bento and hope you like enjoy and like them.

Day 1: 26.01.16 (Tuesday)

Hello Kitty Monkey Costume
Monday is a public holiday so I didn't make any bento since no school ^_^ On Tuesday, I started to create my 1st CNY bento and since is the year of Monkey why not let Hello Kitty wears Monkey Costume to celebrate this upcoming CNY. I know my daughter will love it :D 

To made brown rice as monkey, I add some sweet dark sauce and mixed with rice. Shape the head, body, arms, ears and legs. The white kitty-chan face just shaped a thin layer of rice and lay on top of the monkey head. Next create the cheese face featured for monkey and nori detailed.

As for side dished have spinach, bitter gourd with egg and prawn potato.

Day 2: 27.01.16 (Wednesday)
Sleepy Pandas
On Wednesday bento will be sleepy pandas =_=" Felt so sleepy that day so all I could think of was PANDA!!! Is pretty easy to create since I've the panda rice mould and panda nori mould to create the detailed. So basically I just spend time on cooking the eggplant (pan-fried) and meat patties (pan-fried). I did packed a small container for the grapes but forgot to take picture :(

Day 3: 28.01.16 (Thursday)

Little Girl GONG XI FA CAI
On Thursday, I made 2nd CNY Bento creations ^_^ This round I thought of made some Tangerines since oranges in Chinese sound like the "gold" hence it has an auspicious meaning to bring in good luck and wealth. So I made the tangerines using mashed sweet potato to create them and to made it cuter I add little girl holds one tangerine :) I should have made her dress in red qipao Cheongsam then will looked nicer :D Oh well, I didn't thought of it that day.....

As for side dishes have spinach, fishballs and potato croquette.
