Decided to test sending ramen noodles for hubby's lunch. I'm expecting they'll be a bit gloopy, but hopefully not too bad - I added a tiny bit of oil, let's hope that helps! Mixed veggies with the ramen. Mini burgers from the stash. Couple sprigs of broccoli. Chopped up plum, with an elephant food pick. Hello Kitty cuppy of ketchup for the burgers. And a scrambled egg brain.
Wait, what?!
Yeah, I scrambled two eggs, then formed it into a round. But, it looks like a brain, in my opinion. >_>; Appetizing!
Not shown, the usual side container with mini cookies and muffins.
WE GOT A NEW CAMERA! Haha, yeah, I'm excited. We recently got cell phones, and with each, got a $50 gift card. Figured that it was a sign we should invest in a new camera! Only ended up paying 70something bucks with tax, yay free gift cards! We got a Sony Cybershot, 7.2 megapixels. Not too bad! It's pretty user-friendly, but I'm still getting used to it (and I'm somewhat technologically challenged, so bear with me! But, pictures should be better now! :D
Hubby-bento contains "fried" rice a la Biggie with ham and mixed veggies, grapes and carrots, and mini burgers with yellow hot pepper rings.
I made more hand-shaped onigiri today too, towards my freezer stash. Really liking that freezer stash - so nice to be able to grab stuff to add to lunches without any more effort than microwaving for a couple minutes!
And on a totally random note - Shrek 3 is freakin' hilarious! We need to buy it when it comes out on DVD, I LOVE that movie! Haha
So, I've quickly learned that my new spot for taking photos really isn't any better than the others - anything light colored gets totally washed out, and with flash off, isn't very visible. x_x
I actually took the whole afternoon baking/cooking stuff in mass batches to freeze for bentos - mini banana bread muffins, mini corn muffins, supercute mini peanut butter cookies with star decors, randomly shaped onigiri, and a bunch of mini hamburgers. Alas, the cookies and such look lame as hell with this crappy camera, because you can't see all the little details I put into them. :(
Top is my bento - simple, I know, but I still feel like hell. This is the most solid food I've eaten since I got sick. I never feel like eating when I'm sick, the most I eat is soup. :S Consists of one mini banana bread muffin, some raisins, red grapes, and brussels sprouts and carrots with a little butter.
Hubby's for tomorrow. Mini burgers with a few yellow hot pepper rings, lion soy sauce bottle for the onigiri (you can't see it very clearly either, and it's CUTE!). Two butterfly onigiri stacked on top of each other (I even took the time to draw on yellow details on the top butterfly, using a hot pepper's juice), surrounded by red grapes, and brussels sprouts with carrots (with a little butter on 'em).
Side dish with 4 mini peanut butter cookies (the star decors make them SO cute, I really need to take a picture of them somewhere they can be seen properly! :( , two mini banana bread muffins, and one mini corn muffin. Also, a hello kitty container of ketchup for the burgers, and more soy sauce for the onigiri.
