Rilakkuma Cube Bento

This is post #197, which means next Monday will be my 200th post. :) I will hold a giveaway to celebrate my 200th post, and I will post the details on next Monday. I'm sorry I won't be able to give away the pack of angel wings picks as planned, as I ended up using them, but I'll substitute with other stuff. :)

I made little cubes today, using this mould that I got from Taiwan.They are really easy to use, I'm using the bigger size for my bentos today. :) I decorated the little cubes as Rilakkuma, Korilakkuma and Kiiroitori.

IT's bento for recess, in the box are ham/cheese sandwich, salmon belly and grapes. I used the same rice mould to cut out the bread, ham and cheese. :)

I did not make a box for LT to bring to School today, I told him I'll take a break and will make one for him again on Friday. :P

Ang Chao mee sua (Red fermented wine noodles) for me. Haha, dun be deceived by the color and appearance, it's really nice. It's typically serve as confinement food over here, as it uses sesame oil, ginger and wine, the 3 components usually used in confinement cooking. :)

    1. Yenn, I used sushi rice for this. But normal rice will work too if you add more water when cooking. Haha, yah, I cook on wkdays, I'm off (self declared) on wkends. :)
