Thai-riffic


My neighbour friend gave me a Thai cookbook for my birthday (Simply Thai), and I finally got to using it this week - to great success! Here's Pad Woon Sen, and I added the baby corns myself. I failed to make enough rice to make bento out of the spicy pork awesomeness I made yesterday...but it may yet make an appearance here :)

Curry-licious


Mmmmm, this looks good! Leftover Chicken Curry and Mango Rice from Costco this weekend, carrots, green peppers, kiwi and strawberries. I really like this particular box because of its moveable divider...and its Strawberry Shortcake design. We're going to have to go back to that dollar store soon. I'm sure the man will enjoy the Dora The Explorer version.

Snowed in!


I noticed the weather forecast on Friday and realized we wouldn't be able to get out this weekend, so I picked out lots of things at the grocery store that would keep us well stocked. Today I made slow cooker pork sandwiches and coleslaw, which have be transformed into tommorrow's two part bento. Hooray!

A flurry of foodieness!


In the hour or so I've been home I feel I've accomplished a lot domestically! I made this bento which I am super excited to eat, cause I love left over spaghetti.

And I made this non-bento, but still impressive Pineapple Roll Cake for the cake auction at work tommorrow. Sadly, I won't get to taste it, but it sure did smell good.

Airplane Bento


The man has to travel today, and tragically will not be going Executive Class like we did on our vacation, so I hooked him up with Awesome Class Bento. Lots of snacky things that will be easy to eat on the plane and that he can pick at throughout the flight. The dip is White Bean and Roasted Red Pepper from President's Choice. Should be more bento action now that we are settling in from our trip.
