Bento #12 and #13

Last night, requested hubby to drive me to the supermarket to add in some stock for my boys bento cos it's lacking greens and fruits which is not quite healthy for them. Brocolli is the only vege that both boys will eat, they are very choosy on vege. Clement will go for white vege like bean sprouts and cabbage and Clarence will go for green vege with hard stem like asparagus etc.

I am very happy to see my creation today. At last I added colors to my boys bento.

Today's bento:-
Rice, brocolli, meatball on seafood tofu, crabstick and grapes. Furikake in the container and the nutella bread.
The nutella bread, as usual, is for Clarence after school. Clement told me not to pack for him cos he likes to eat school food. As he has no chance to eat during recess, he eats after school before boarding the school bus. And guess what, he eats another round when he reaches grandma's place. Maybe the portion is too little for him or he is just greedy?????

Bento #10 and #11

Indeed it is very tiring to wake up an hour earlier just to make bento for the kids. When you know that the kids finished up all the food, it's all worth it. Must salute all bento mummies out there.

Here's today bento

Bread roll with ham & cheese, ham flower, seaweed chicken, meat ball with crabstick

Pooh cut out bread with nutella and the other with cheese


The pooh bread with nutella is for Clarence and decided to make a set for my girl too. Have a great time playing with the cutter.

Bento #8 and #9

Clarence's first day at school, they normally have buddy to bring them for recess and I thought I can have a break for another few days before I start preparing bento for my boys to bring to school but the first day experience told me that I need to prepare bento for Clarence for recess.

My boy is so shy that he dare not ask for anything except to the drink stall to buy a packet of milo. Then, they sat down at a table to finish his drink. After guiding him on how to dispose the packet, I saw my poor boy sitting alone at the table, the buddy is no where to be found. He is also so lost as to what to do. In the end, I need to bring him to the assembly area where the teacher will bring them back to the classroom.

Today is the second day of school and I tell myself I need to prepare something for the boys. Here is the bento for today.

Prata with hotdog, nuggets and star biscuits for recess. The cut out are bread with Bak Kwa.

Th bread are for them to fill their stomach before taking the school bus back to the grandmother's house as the journey is about 2 hours. Hmm...already thinking of what to prepare for them tomorrow.
