Happy Easter, Olaf..

That greeting is for you, too...
Yeap, all of you..

Happy Easter!
Hope you had a great Easter holidays :)


On the Easter day, kids wanted to go swimming.
Knowing by heart that they must be very pretty hungry when coming out from the pool :b
So, I made this bento.

Inside the box:
* Inarizushi
some of them, formed as in a brown bunny while some others as rice-bags stuffed with different kind of toppings such as chicken floss, chopped ham and edamame.
His cute brown face, completed with color-matching long ears :) Well, I just stuffed everything with white rice. Yes, including the both ears.
* Pink Kamaboko. Love the bright color and I just feeling playful with the cutting.
* Pan-fried ham, store-bought frozen ham
* Onion rings, store-bought too, just deep fried them
* Edamame
* Blanched broccoli
* Strawberries
* Kani 
* Mini tamagoyaki
* White bunny, from white rice onigiri, with her partly-pinkish-long-ears thanks to Kani sheet, of course. She is smiling pretty with blue ribbon foodpick and holding a "decorated Easter egg" This egg was actually a furikake-sprinkled-onigiri.
I spent an hour making this bento from scratch, from blanching the inari pouches bla-bla-bla I do not have to mention all the cooking, right?..yawn :D.... until assembling them into the box. 

Three kids finished them in less than 15 minutes. 

Straight. 
Hm.....lucky me *wide grin*



Everyone...... meet Olaf..

He is made from rounded white bread filled with strawberry jam.
The button is from halved chocolate chips, this is store bought.
I used Pokky as his hands 
The eyes are from cheese and nori sheets
The nose comes from a steamed carrot
The hair and mouth are from nori sheet
Again, I use cheese sheet for his single teeth.
He has two cheese-rolled bread, edamame, blanched broccoli, strawberries and steamed egg mixture with frozen vegetables inside a paper cup.

My daughter excitedly imagining the comments from her classmates.
...Kids... {^,^}
She loves Frozen the movie. All of my kids do.

Until next time.
