My daughter passed me her Sanrio collections of mini sweet piano sheep for me to made for her lunch bento ^_^ I don't have to think or do sketched...haha...just follow the image of the Sweet Piano Sheep and cooked whatever ingredients the fridge left :p
A closer look of the My Sweet Piano Sheep :) I mixed the rice with some Mizkan sushi pink and face made from cheese that I use cutter to cut out. Punch out nori details and freehand scissor cut the lashes :) Red food gel for cheeks and white candy balls (bought from bakery shop) for eyes. Broccoli along the side and chicken floss as well. Imitation crabstick for ribbon head gear.
Gyoza, quail egg, mushroom, carrots and sweet potato as flower. Some oranges and grapes.
I hope you will like today's theme bento and have a nice day everyone ^_^
Today is Ash Wednesday first day of Lent that we Catholic will fasting. But my daughter still young so she doesn't need to fast from meals. I prepare something simple for her as well to remind her the day of fasting when she reaches age 14.
Freehand cut out nori for little girl with a cross of ashes (nori) at forehead and stick on cheese then use toothpick to trim out. The sign of a cross ashes that will be receive it today's Ash Wednesday Mass.
I baked potato mushroom puff pastry using frozen puff pastry. Pretty easy to made but I didn't follow any recipes....opps....just mainly cooked potato, carrots, fresh button mushroom, garlic, onion as fillings. I'm sure you will have a better recipe for it but I tend to made it simple with less ingredients :p
Alphabet ASH WED letters pick for another puff pastry and few grapes, honey cherry tomato and flower marshmallows.
I hope you will like this simple bento lunch!

Hello everyone!! How's your weekend? Today is a special day in Japan. They're celebrating Girl's Day or Doll's Day ^_^ How nice that I could experience their culture, perhaps one of the days.....hahaha....Well, I made Hello Kitty version for Hinamatsuri Theme bento. Yes I know, it's Hello Kitty again :) Never get bored for my darling girl!!!
Shaped the rice using cling wrap and inside with chicken floss fillings. Emperor wrap with nori seaweed holds broccoli stem as ritual baton and Empress wrap with crabstick holds carrot as fan.
Side dishes have broccoli, edamame, chicken seaweed, sweet potato and grapes.
I hope you will like my today's Hinamatsuri theme bento and enjoy! Happy Monday!!
On March 3rd will be Hinamatsuri also called as Doll's Day or Girl's Day that is a special day in Japan. Last year I made few designed of Hinamatsuri Bento (will shared the links at the end of this post) so this year might as well made few designed too ^_^ Today's Hinamatsuri Obento lunch ideas from Pinterest. I assumed from one of the Japanese mum as I can't find the links on the picture. I loved this idea and pretty easy to made :) I just made some changes on the Emperess fan.
Here's the close look of the Emperor made of onigiri (rice mixed with green furikake and chicken floss fillings) holding a ritual baton made of brocoli stem. Nori for deatils and red food gel for cheeks.
Here's the close look of the Empress made of onigiri (Mizkan sushi pink mixed with rice and chicken floss fillings) holding a fan made of crabstick (use straw to cut the holes) Nori for the details and red food gel for cheeks.
I hope you will like my today's Hinamatsuri Obento. Have a great day!

Opps....making Hello Kitty theme again ^_^ I've noticed that many cutters that I bought hardly used =_=" So here I made Ham Kitty waiting for HUGS for my daughter's lunch bento. Pretty much easy by just using cutter and add on the nori details. The "Hug Me" egg container comes with different colours and designed. Perfectly matched my today's theme :)
A closer look of my Hello Kitty Ham and cute egg "Hug Me" contains chicken floss instead of hard boiled egg. I shape two onigiri rice mixed with furikake and wrap the ham by adding spaghetti strip to secured. Punch out nori for kitty-chan details and lastly add ribbon pick :)
For side dishes just simple ingredients: broccoli, quail egg, sausage and mandarin orange/apples.
I hope you will like it and have a nice day! Hugs!
Today's lunch bento very simple and little food :p Due to my daughter requested less food on every Tuesday that they need to practice choral speaking during their lunch break =_=" So I decided to made Hello Kitty Pancake instead of sandwich. I used Cornell Hello Kitty Sandwich Maker to made pancake. Butter at small hk container and cut out some hk apples using cookie cutter :)
Here is the close up Hello Kitty Pancake ^_^ Cute?? Hehehe.....
I hope you will like it! Have a great day ^_^
