Unexpected (and really) last bento of 2012

Mr Roast Meat has to get up really early and go out tomorrow morning, so lazy Mum, instead of also waking early to get him a fresh breakfast, decided to bento tonight so he can grab it before he heads out the door.


Some raisin bread cubes (Gardenia, in case you were thinking I baked it myself, hurhur), ham and cuke rolls, plus some chocolate covered nuts and raisins (I can hear him "yay!" already) I loved as a kid, and which he loves, but Takoyaki does not. Oh well.

Merry Christmas, everybody!

And... AH!! A giveaway by Bento Monsters! Quick quick head on over there!!

Some news (not of mine) and a bento sale!

This blog has been kinda quiet since my last official bento post for the year. Well, school's out so there's not much reason to bento since the kids are with me all the time (I cook, they eat, the end). And I've been busy researching on homeschooling my 2yo (very unofficially).

And I haven't been thinking or planning next year's bentos yet (haha! that would be so UNtypical of me, to plan), but I know I need to do so soon, perhaps not so much the actual food or themes, as the timing and workflow, since both Takoyaki and Roast Meat will be in the morning session. I hope to bento BEFORE they go to school on some days, instead of the night before. But this will take some preparing, something I'm loathe to do.

Some good news - Bento guru Maki is feeling better these days and has again begun updating both her bento site JustBento as well the sister site on Jap food (and other Japanese topics, as well as other cuisines), JustHungry. I know you don't know me, Maki, but I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better! Both your blogs have been sources of great inspiration (not to mention bona fide Japanese recipes that I depend so much on).


Wishing you a Blessed Christmas, everyone~
