Bento Fun #126
Today Baby G woke up very early as she was cranky the whole night screaming away for don’t know what reasons. She will do that once in a while… refusing milk and refusing anything we try doing to calm her down.
This morning my MIL has to be at the airport early so she helped me to carry Baby G so I can finish up today’s bento for Darrius (he was still upstairs zzz then) but I still did not get to complete it to my satisfaction but have to be content with it. >o<
If you have noticed why there aren’t any onigiri in my recent bentos, that was because I don’t have the time to make any in the morning (only have the most 45 mins each morning for bentos). Also, I don’t want Darrius to bring rice knowing that he will take ages to finish them! Therefore, I have to turn anything from rice to bread if the ideas I got were from my bento books.
What’s in the box today?
I tried making a 3-D bear today using wholemeal bread. I slot a slice of cheese on the bear head and the details on the ears. I stack the nose using some honey so they won’t move. I secured dried blueberries for the eyes using some spaghetti and a dried cranberry for the nose.
Since I am running out of time I did not get to do a lot of the details such as the tongue and the paw prints. Oh well… will definitely do another one next time with all the details!! 
Added some golden kiwi slices and yellow cherry tomatoes for Vitamin C (also, these are the only items left in the fridge!) as Darriu’s cough is getting slightly better. At least he don;t cough so much now compared to the last few months.
That’s all for today! Have fun bento-ing!

Super cute bear!!! That is so awesome how you made him out of bread.
Thanks Susan! Have to find a way since I don’t do onigiri like all of you bento masters are doing!
Too adorable!! Double layers on the nose just amazing
Thanks Lia!
Hi Angeleyes,
Your 3D bear is so lovely, it looks very real to me. Wonderful job!
Hey Emily! Thanks for your compliment!
ah I commented on the bunny one before reading this and the reasons why you don’t do onigiri. Seriously though, if you press the rice together hard enough it should stay in a ball and not fall to bits, so it will not make too much mess. :O) Love this 3d bread bear, very cute idea!
Asfora – haha.. now you know why I don’t pack rice balls. Also, the Chinese beliefs is that cold rice is bad for the tummy so if my mom finds out I am feeding her granson with cold rice, this mommy will get a scolding!
The bear is so cute. Wished I could be as creative with my bento.
AMD – Thanks! You could always go around playing with the ideas after browsing books or images from the websites. I’m sure YY will be happy if she gets cute cute stuff in her bento and probably cleaning them off too!
