Bento #96 ~ Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer!

Another one month is Christmas! Christmas mood is on! ^_^ I love Christmas more than any other festivals. So I've started to make Christmas bento ^_^ This bento was last Sunday's dinner for the girls. I've made Rudolph the red nose reindeer.

Reindeer is made of rice wrapped in inari, cherry tomato for the nose, sausages for the antlers and ears, cheese and nori for the details.

In another box, there are teriyaki meatballs, corns, brocolli, strawberries and baby bell pepper that I love to eat. So that is meant for me :D I've carved a Christmas tree on the apple and add some cute reindeer picks in the box. Of course this two boxes of food is not enough for my girls, they have additional dishes for their dinner ^_^

Bento #95 ~ The Little Ladybug

Little A's story books always give me lots of inspirations. I love to transform these storybooks into bento especially those that Little A's currently reads, she will be very excited with all these storybook bento :)

As we currently are reading on The Grouchy Ladybug from Eric Carle, I've made this little ladybug for Little A's dinner. Little A always complain about the grouchy ladybug, so when I told her I'm going to make it for her dinner, she remind me to make the kind ladybug instead of the grouchy ladybug ..... :D

Ladybug is made of rice mixed with tomato sauce and nori. The antennae are uncooked spaghetti and corn. In the bento, there are honey soy chicken, air-fried meatballs, broccoli and sweet corns. All are Little A's favourites :)

Decorating gel for the cheeks and add cute picks for them. In the bento, there are strawberries and air-fried meatballs, which is currently Big E favourite, she can have it everyday :)

Bento #92 ~ Big Pig On A Dig

Little A has the habit of reading her favourite books repeatedly every night. So today, I'm making her favourite book, Big Pig On A Dig. We have a whole series of the books but we have repeated this story for five days till Big E and I are bored with it....Hopefully we can change something different tonight.....hehe.

Big Pig is made of ham, cheese and nori and lastly a dabbed of decorating gel on the cheeks. The soil is scramble eggs. In the bento, there are cheese and ham sandwiches, strawberries and chocolate in the small container.

Little A is so happy when she saw the Big Pig but she said "Mummy, why only Big Pig? What about Big Pig friends?" :S
