Bento Mania #16
I was in a little bad luck this whole week but that didn’t put me down when finally I am able to see the money in my PayPal account has reached an amount equivalent to the Canon Speedlite 580EX II. Woot! And because of that excitement, I’ve prepared a slightly heavy bento for the kids. Each of them brought home a piece of untouched chicken. Wasting food only. Must find a day to lecture the kids!
Instead of filling the house with smoky and oily smelly so early in the morning, I’ve decided to fry them the night before and the next morning, just pop them into the microwave. That way, I do not have to rush in the morning too. I just need to scramble an egg before emptying a can of bake beans into it. In a separate pot, boiled a little water with salt and blanched the french beans and carrot sticks.
I did all that under five minutes but spent the next 20 minutes arranging the food and decorating them with punched nori sheet. Oh, not forgetting taking pictures. *sticking out tongue*
p/s:Â I am still excited thinking of the external flash. *snigger*
