Whaddya Know... It's Never The Last Till...

School ends. Although I realise it should actually be "The Year Ends", because I never know what may assail me to bento for fun in the holidays. Ha ha.

But here is the last for the school year at least. I loved giving him a proper box this time instead of the sandwiches I've fallen on the last couple months.

And of course he loves his bratwurst d:)

On a side note, I found some pretty Christmas-themed wax paper at Daiso to add to my ever-growing bento wax paper collection. Muahahaha!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Possibly Last Bento for 2014...

Ham-cheese-cucumber sandwich and fruits.

Spaghetti Shrimp Aglio Olio

Made with quick-cooking angel hair spaghetti, here's another of RM's favs. Keeping things simple, I only sliced some red and yellow capsicum and cucumber to go with it.

Chicken in a Pocket

If you've been bentoing for some time, you most probably know about this cool pocket sandwich maker, a cheap but useful implement obtainable from Daiso.

I realised I could use just one slice of bread instead of two (if someday I discover I only have one slice left, haha) to make a dumpling-style pocket.

RM's chicken pocket school recess bento

All you have to do is fold that one slice over on itself (with the filling inside) and press down on the pink part as per normal.

Takoyaki's class outing bento

The little brown patties in Takoyaki's box are Quinoa patties. She doesn't like quinoa on its own but these quinoa patties taste almost like beef patties. I'll share the recipe another day.
