Bento #19 - Chicken Chop Suey

Yeah, it's getting dark outside, can you tell? My poor little camera can't handle the lighting. At least you can see it, right?

Bottom tier is more banana sushi (yeah, I know, but it's good, and healthy enough) with kiwi filling in the blank spots, and an octopus food pick. Top tier is chicken chop suey from my mommy - they got takeout Chinese food, I guess. *shrug*

Normally, I'd post both mine and my husband's bento pictures at the same time, but then again, normally, they're pretty similar. His is totally different this time, and it's currently in the oven. I'll post it later tonight. ^_^

It's the first day of his new job tomorrow, hopefully he likes the meal I make for him to bring. :)

Bento #15 and #16 - Picnic Bentos

Hubby and I took Kaia to the park today. It's late September, and it's absolutely gorgeous outside - yay global warming? Seriously bizarre. A few days ago, it felt like it was going to snow, and now it's shorts weather again. Not that I'm complaining, it was so nice to spend time in the sun again!

Top bento is hubby's. Mini burgers with a few hot pepper rings on top. Bowtie pasta with sundried tomato pesto, with a little parmesan on top. Concord grapes and kiwifruit on the right side, with a little dolphin food pick and Hello Kitty containers of ketchup.

I got my eBay package in, can you tell? ^_^ Lots of cute food picks, Hello Kitty condiment containers, cute soy sauce bottles, an apple-print Putifresh kinchaku, and this:


Grape Putifresh bento box! Top tier of bowtie pasta with sundried tomato pesto and a little parmesan. Bottom tier of "banana sushi", with kiwifruit and a little penguin food pick.


This is it closed. Gotta love the Engrish.


Kaia, eating her snacks. She was good and stayed on the blanket while she was eating her snacks, but then she decided she was full (or bored) and attacked my bento box (by then it was closed, at least). Then, she decided she was going to attack the camera:


And then? She took off on the grass, grabbing dry leaves. She tossed most of them, but every once in a while, she'd find one she decided was edible, apparently, and tried to eat it...

Was a fun afternoon, though. ^_^
