Bento #33: Hello Kitty onigiri bento
I had neglected my Flickr account for a long time. But last week, I managed to update it with the Cosmania pics and discovered that some people have recently added this bento pic to their Favorites list. ♥ ♥ ♥ I just remembered I haven’t...
The baby carrot army strikes again + new recipe
I know I wrote before that I won’t be buying baby carrots ever again. But just last week, I found myself. getting another pack for my bentos. I just can’t resist those orange cuties. 😀 I remembered coming across one recipe by Rachel Ray on the...
Bento #40: Tuna pasta
I’ve been away from the bento world for several months now because I was so busy with work and the JLPT review. Well, I still do not have a lot of time for making elaborate lunches like before and this is proof. Presenting bento #40:...
Crazy Harry Potter bento!!
I haven’t been making nice bentos lately. Actually, I don’t even make ugly bentos! Since I started with my review class, I hardly have any time for cooking so I usually just grab something from the nearby eatery to eat at my desk while working. When at...
Bento #37 – Featuring wafuu vegetables!

Bento #34 – Chicken nuggets

Bento # 31: Sardine spaghetti and longganisa bento
Originally uploaded by catchan1980 As a pasta lover, I have been experimenting with various sauces for pasta. Red only, of course (not a fan of white). One very simple recipe I found in the net called for sardines in tomato sauce. I happened to have...
Bento #30: Happy bear obento
For lack of a better title 😀 Lately, I’ve been trying to distance myself from cutesy obento — just to make my lunch more “age-appropriate”, so to speak. However, sometimes, I really can’t help it. Old habits die hard, I guess…and the habit might not...
Will the real baby carrot please stand up?
I love browsing through the internet for bento pictures — they always inspire me to keep on creating nice bentos. One thing I noticed about bentos made by Americans is that they always have baby carrots in their bentos. In whatever form: steamed, boiled, raw....
