This was my first time making bento, it was very simple coz I didn't have much time to prepare it, I had to take Mayra to her gymplay class at Gymboree. Bento was supposed to be made for people going to work or school or just having lunch outside, but mine wasnt. Mayra only go to "school" twice a week for gymplay n music class. Each class is only for an hour long.. That means actually it's unecessary for her to bring bentos, coz she's having her lunch at home anyway. But I like the pleasure of making bento, it made me feel happy n I think so did Mayra.. It's like putting love into lunch boxes :)
I'm not a full time stay at home mom nor a full time mom * hate those labels*, I run a family business that gave me the privilege to have a not so strict working hours, I can take mayra to school in the morning and still go to work after that. But I often still have to work after office hours or even after midnight. Well because of that I like the idea of making bento s for Mayra's lunch so she could still feel the fun lovin feeling in her meals.. I always try to cook myself her meals so she can have nice and healthy meals, and I think it would make her more happy if it's packed in a cute n fun package..
For this bento I made a bear-shaped rice mixed with scrambbled egg, some fish nuggets with mayo sauce, starfruits and strawberries. Mayra is very excited with her lunch, she ate both of the bears with some chicken soup ( I didn't put the soup into the bento ). I'm very glad she like it ^_^
