Like you see, I really love Hello Kitty...

This snack Bento was really an experiment, just to find out what would be nice to use in the Hello Kitty veggie cutters... And the mango turned out to be very nice..

Manderin, grapes, melon, kiwi and mango...

Sweet olives

Since my parents life in a small town nearby Utrecht, I've discovered sweet olives... Yummie and unfortunately, can't buy them everywhere... I thought it might be nice for in the Bento and it was really delicious, this salad with bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, bear egg and of course, the sweet olives....

Sometimes we just like to have something differents... These small hamburgers we made we're really yummie....

Homemade Hamburgers, Hello Kitty egg and a small salad...

The papercups I use to bake muffins, are also great for seperating the food and, most important, the colour doesn't give off...

In Japan, fruit is treated like it's candy or snack... This small snack bento was for the coffee break, but because of the work we need to finish, we just had time to eat it in the train...

Fruitsalad with Mango, grapes, raspberries and a flower manderin.

I really love the cute animal food picks, it just ads a certain factor of cuteness in it...

Using egg molds and the Hello Kitty vegie cutters, it is really easy to make a super cute small salad....

Udon noodles, I really love it... We thought of making some more, so we could put them in the bento for the next day, unfortunately, there was nothing left.... If we really intend to put it in the bento, I think we should make even more then we did...
