Spring Bentos and New Bentobako

Although I mentioned my 100th post giveaway earlier, I have a few more posts left to write until I reach it hahah. I've been preparing my first giveaway items to send the winner in the meantime. I'm so excited finding some lovely bento gears. I sure hope the winner likes them! Sooo I'm going to post some bentos before I'm ready for the giveaway. Some of you may already saw these pictures everywhere else!


This contains scrambled egg and spinach stir-fry atop rice, shrimp/mayo, lettuce/braised chicken salad and a simmered chikuwa skewer.

  3. To be honest - I like your bentos prepared in everydays containers so really yummy w/o a lot of plastic stuff... But I must admit that I have given a bento box to my husband at x-mas and have to fill it every now and then ;-)

  11. Thank you. I added a little natural food coloring into the whipped cream so it doesn't taste mint. :)
