Octopus's Garden Bento

The Mister was super upset with me. Aren't the eyes suppose to be on the side? Well, I said, these are baby octopi. He was quite upset that the clams were too big (in relation to other things) and what's that purple stuff?

Well, I said, (after fussing with this Tiffin bento long enough), it is what it is. And then he ate it.

After that, he wasn't so grumpy.

Polar Bear Bento

The Mister works in the great outdoors and will eat everything on his plate, everything on my plate, and everything leftover. In other words, the man is hungry!

So yesterday I made a little appetizer while the dinner was cooking. I've been wanting to use my charm stones as cold packs in my bento. Here, though, the polar bear is more of a decoration (He is chilled though.) And the shrimp are sitting on crushed ice too.

Bento Box for Boyfriend #1

Usually we both work on Thursdays making it rather hectic to do something nice for each other, although he's pretty good bringing home some nice take-out from Pier 46.

This week I'm on vacation and totally wrapped up in my new hobby Bento Boxing !!!!!! So I made him some sushi rolls with radish roses.
He wouldn't take one of my bento boxes though. No, he said it would just get wrecked. But I know the truth; the guys at the construction site would call him Hello Kitty for a couple of months.
