Furkid on Treadmill!!+Dessert Bento no 38

Dessert bento consists of yummy moist Pandan(Screwpine leaves) Butter cream swiss roll as Furkid with sweet Red Globe grapes in this double tier Pikachu Bento box. Furkid always likes to stick a bit of her tongue out so that's why a bit of grapes skin was used on the butter cream.

Oh dear loads of calories in this bento especially the cream and do you know 25 minutes on the treadmill burns 150 calories only for me guess I have to step up the level...la..yikes!

Furkid on the treadmill!!!

Have a look at the video of furkid on the treadmill "walk walk" indoors. With the hazy weather, sudden rain and all sorts of viruses especially Leptospirosis, Meningitis and Swine Flu or now known as Influenza A(H1N1) is best to do my exercise indoors! with furkid...LOL. Hey my doggy needs her exercise too...or else she will be sulking and pretend to be very sad lying flat down on the floor!*grin*

Have a happy day bento-ing.....

Teddy+Flower Rice moulded bento no 37

Teddy + flower onigiri with half fish shaped egg, prawns, brussel sprouts and carrots.

Make use of the shaped silicon cups on this rice moulded bento with stir fried shelled prawns, brussel sprouts and hard boil egg. Actually this was part of dinner food but ensemble into my new Minnie Mouse bento box for this bento. Filled a little light soya sauce in a cute apple face sauce container for added taste to the half hard boil egg. Details were done with nori and crab stick on the teddy+flower onigiri. Wanted to fill the gaps with lettuce and cherry tomatoes but couldn't find any in the fridge...sigh! Time to go groceries shopping........

Fruits shaped bento no 36

Mangoes and papayas in different shapes in Tomica bento box

Did a mango and papaya fruits bento in my new Tomica bento box which is about 220ml in capacity smaller than the usual ones of 300ml. As you can see from my previous post picture it is not much bigger than a pack of picks! It's kind of small but great as a compliment snack box. Various shapes were cut using miffy, mickey, bear and flower cutters accessorized with lovely picks to beautify the faceless miffi and mickey! LOL!

Happy bento-ing!!

Surrounded by blanched carrot, mini corn, cherry tomatoes and mini chinese "pak choy" plus coral lettuce. Expression on the egg face, flowers and stars from punched out nori/seaweed to beautify the bento meal. Oh ya blushing rosy cheeks with a drop of chilli sauce too. Lastly to complete the bento meal with some picks..two semi quavers, mini hearts plus tiny mickey head. Ta..da...finito!

Thermos Lunch Box

Didn't prepare any bento today so was digging out some old photos and decided to post this purchase of a Thermos lunch box sometime back at Jusco at a special promotion price. I believe this product was in the market for a while cos' stocks are very limited as I couldn't find this in Parkson. The size is just right for an adult no frills kind of cute bento. Lol!


What's in the plastic packaging? An insulated aluminium bag, 1 steel container, 2 small plastic containers, a pair of chopstick and a elastic belt to hold the outer steel container together.



All ready to go, pack in the insulated aluminium bag.



Amount in ml for the 3 different boxes which if you pack compactly equals amount of calories taken but off course in the required food proportions.....
