Bento Books by Susan Yuen
I have wanted to blog about the books written by Susan Yuen for a long time! I got them like last year…! 
Each time I wanted to write, there will sure be other things that get in the way and I’ll have to KIV it. Since I am free now (no need to cook lunch and baby is napping), I might as well get it out of the way! 
I have been an ardent fan of Susan Yuen. I just love her bento creations as they are simple yet very nice and appetizing not only to the eyes but to the tummy too! I can’t remember when I chanced upon her site but I do remember participating in her first Kid’s Bento contest that she has organized in her old blog and I was one of the winners.
She has written 2 books and I managed to get both books after lots of troubles since her first book was always out of stock! I only managed to get it by asking a friend from US to help me to purchase from Amazon last year.

She has some simple instructions for some of her bento so if you are a beginner in making kids bento, I would advise you to get a copy. Best of all, both books are in English! There are some very easy to follow recipes too so you can learn to cook some Japanese/Hawaiian dishes!
I’ve learned from her blog recently that she is in the midst of writing her 3rd book. Can’t wait for it to be published! I’m sure she has lots of new ideas for us!

Yes Kelly! I agree with you.
So far I only managed to make the “butterfly” in the book and the book had been collecting dust again … {blush blush}…

hahahaa… I don’t normally do exactly what I see from the books…
I love to tweak them a little so not like copying directly hehehehe
Susan got me started on my bento adventures! She’s an inspiration! i have both her books too. I especially love her recipe portion of the book. She’s actually working on her 3rd book!!
That’s is so great Mrs P!
I just love all the simple and neat ideas in her books.
Yeah, can’t wait for her new book too!
Thank you so much for your support and such a great review!!
