Back at the Bento! 



After a long hiatus from here and a shorter hiatus from Bentoing I am back. I have challenged myself to at least 3 bentos a week and at least one blog post. Lets see if I can keep it up!

My next bento was partially inspired by the way too cute "Wonderland" box I got at Target and partially by the fact that I now have less then 100 days till our Disney vacation! Yay! Expect to see a lot of Disney bentos in the coming weeks. 

Alice and the Cheshire Cat 



  It is a super simple bento, with tomatoes, Alice and Cheshire cat onigiri, cold sliced chicken and a flower full of raspberries. Yum!


The onigiri were fun as they were the first I have done with 2 colors in my molds. Alice is done in a bear mold and the cat is of course in a cat mold. Their accents are nori with a cheese smile for Mister Cat. 
You can see my pretty new box lid in the background here. It had a divider but I pulled it out for this box.

I hope you all have a lovely week!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Critters



This was a super fast, I have nothing in my cupboards kinda bento. I had made cut outs with  fruit roll ups then when I was trying to decide what to do with them the faces just kinda happened. The back box is pineapple and watermelon.

Sunny side up



This sunny little bento is scrambled eggs with a cheesy sunny daisy on top. The back box is purple chocolate chip pancakes and strawberries. Also there is a sparkly pink bear cupcake leftover from a party. This box was super fast to make and so tasty!

Curly Girl



Isn't she so cute? I love the little "peas" the best though!
She is made out of leftover lomain, and bread. Her little friends are peaches, strawberry Mochi, and 3 little Hello Kitty strawberry marshmallows that I drew little faces on with my food safe markers.

Baby, The Stars Shine Bright!


I love these little bento's and I loved watching Mr. Badger eat it even more! He was such a good sport about his cute lunch, and I had so much fun making them. 
The are chicken teriyaki, saffron rice, sugar snap peas, with Miso soup for him and peaches for me. I had starmallows to put on my peaches and I completely forgot! Looking at this now it still annoys me that I forgot.

Usa-chen!!!



So I am slightly...a little bit...okay madly, insanely obsessed with Ouran High School Host Club. More specifically Usa-chen Honey Sempai's adorable and beloved stuffed bunny. I mean come on the thing blushes...blushes!!! How much cuter can you get? So when I tried my hand at egg sheets for the first time I knew just the character to go with, my favorite, adorable, and happily one color bunny! I think he turned out pretty well for a first try. 

The food in this box is rather boring, Mac and Cheese, egg sheet, and carrot in the first box. The back box is peaches and pears jarred in their own juice and a PB and J heart sandwich.  It all tasted yummy though and that is what counts! Also you can see I just had to use my so cute dolly box again. I just love it! 

Someone else loved it too!!!

Hurry up and hatch we want to play!

These impatient Chicks are waiting for their sister to hatch so they can go off and play. They are packed in my newest and favorite bento box! It is filled with ginger pork, island soyaki shrimp and sugar snap peas, snow peas, and carrots. The back has grapes, with starmallow flowers, and goldfish. The egg and gold fish were eaten later as a snack.
You can see the box better here. Isn't it just so cute? This is the box that got me in to bentoing in the first place!
