Birthday

It's LT's birthday today. IT has no school, so I only made one bento today, an idea I got from a book. Its packed with his favorite fried dumplings and strawberries. The birthday boy turns 4 today! He had a simple birthday celebration at my mum's place last sat. And today, he celebrated in school with his friends.


Special birthday bento for the birthday boy. IT wanted one too, so I promised him I'll make him a special one for his birthday next year. :)


Elmo cupcakes baked by me, for his celebration in school.

Bear Sammy

There's no school for IT today, it's meet the parents session at his school. I picked LT slightly earlier. I brought the bentos along for both boys to eat in IT's canteen, while I went up to meet the teachers. And they were both allowed to buy a drink from the school's vending machine today.

Chicks on Soba

Made cold soba for the boys today. The boys have their lunch bentos at home, IT before school, and LT after school. So I just kept the lunch boxes in the fridge. Snack box for recess is bread, this time cut with varying star cutters.

Mickey and Cake

Mickey rice onigiri for their lunch today. LT celebrated in birthday in advance last Saturday, the snack bento for IT was a slice of his birthday cake. He had requested for sugar bunnies and 鼠小弟 ( a character from a Chinese story book series that he likes) for the toppers on a strawberry mousse cake, The mousse cake turned out fine, but the toppers I moulded were really ugly. But he loved them, hmmm, kids have very different standards from us.
