Curry Bento


From this to...
yes..this..talk about being creative...
By the way, these are eggs..normal medium size eggs.
First and foremost, what is Bento?
Edited. Thank you Bento Pet- I know the meaning of bento afetr visiting your blog.
Bento = Traditional Boxed Lunch...
More Japanese Glossary here..
I am too lazy to find google it and I am too excited to post these pictures. Look at my interesting curry dish I cooked yesterday. I took leave and went for a breakfast at Latta's curry house. Then, we went to Asia City to look for Bento molds. I met someone there too, another Bento addict mama. This mama is another addict. Wait till she post her Bento dish. Read more here. So when I reach home, I tried it and the other mama also tried her mold. This is what it turned out to be!! Interesting food from now on. Hubby ate two of these. I know he doesn't really care about the design of the egg but it sure make cooking more interesting. So, will you buy it for your kids? I am sure they will love you more for taking time to cook pretty and interesting food for them. Sona is still small and I can't show her any Bento food but I will start this collection. One item or few ( I have ordered quite a number already hahaha) a month just like her cloth diapers. Talking about clot diaper, we were at Giant 1 Borneo yesterday and we passed by the disposable diapers section. hubby said "Glad we don't have to buy this" and every time I see people carrying big pack of disposable diapers, I feel relieved that for the past two months I didn spent a single sent for Sona's diapers. I will buy again when she is going for a large size..so parents out there, change to Cloth Diaper and visit Sandra. By the way she is having a workshop soon. Be there! Oh, ya, she is the new Bento crazy mama hahaha ( ops Sorry Sandra). Are you going to see Bento at your store too? ha ha ha..she might be busy preparing Bento for Indy now.

So cute that thing..what is that actually? It look like a flour being mold into that shape? Or is it something else?
