Description
I bought a cute pink Bento box from this site and i was inspired to make a cute lunch and take a picture of it!I made the chicken myself. Its a japanese chicken recipe i found on the web thats pretty good. i just added some toasted sesame seeds and cute yellow ribbons for decoration.
The shrimp is a little spicy. its basically leftovers from the restaraunt i ate at last night.
Hard boild egg with green food coloring to make the face and some japanese rice crackers just below it.
An apple bunny (golden delicious apple) and some grapes for desert.
and some Rice with salmon furikake!

xAx its hard for me to make apple bunnies... i'm afraid i'll cut myself

aww >w< i'm sure you'd do fine! i can't wait to go to the grocery store so i can try!

When you do, make sure to put your freshly cut apple in some water with a pinch of salt for a few minutes. it'll keep the apple from browning.

oh really?! i know lemon juice helps to prevent browning, but i've never heard of water and salt. i'll have to try it!

lol i've heard of using lemon juice, too! I heard of the salt version first though... I was told by my coworker Kazuko-san during lunch break one time.

well then i'll try an experiment! i'll cut up a whole apple and make a bunch of apple bunnies and put half in water and salt mixture and the other half i'll rub with lemon juice and see which one i like the taste of better!

when i first started making them for lunches i didn't make them cute, or half the time even really delicious. i just want to make delicious food that i enjoy eating for lunch!

it just taste practice. eventually you naturally just start making them pretty and yummmy for lunches without thinking too much into it
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes i just need to keep practicing! i've been paying much more attention to them lately. i hope to get some good habits down this summer so i'm all ready for the fall!

I'm guessing the Chicken is 'karage' right? (Karage is basically the yummier version of chicken nuggets in Japan). Oh god, do I miss making that when the meat is pricey here in Canada... T_T
Gah! Looking at this makes me miss MY mom's cooking...despite that I can cook myself... >_>;

uh no... it's some recipe that some other american lady put on a site. and all i did was just add sesame to it and make it look pretty. it has the bone still.
XD and everyone will miss their mom's cooking at one point or another. i love my mom's cooking! except when she makes some strange philopeano food i don't know.... then i don't bother trying it cuz it's scarry to me. ahahahahhahaha.

Ahhhh... I see... Sorry about that. Though... Now I'm curious for that recipe (even though, again, chicken in Canada is pricey.. >_>; ). You don't mind linking it, do you?
Filipino food... I wanna try that... (eve if it sounds strange, I've eaten weirder foods)

[link] thats the link. but i'm confused by how the sauce is made so i think when i made it i putzed it up. its the kind of chicken that needs to be eaten right away. saving it for later...doesn't go so well.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow... that sounds pretty good. 
For the sauce... hmmm... did you mean that it got 'thick' or something? Because usually, it should be a bit in between soupy and thick (and by the look of the recipe in making it, there is no order the ingredients should be mixed..).
Oh dang... apologies that my culinary-chef brain has to come up... >_>;

i donno. i didn't know if it was suppose to be either. or if i was suppose to cook it or what? course i just skimmed though it and made myself quick notes so i really didn't read it well so maybe thats why it came out weird for me. i drizzled it over the chicken as it backed...then halfway though i decided to cook it a bit on the stove top....but i think i burnt it....DX

Oh... XD
Hmmm... when I get the time, I shall investigate this...'culinary matter'.
