Obento

for some reason right now, I'm so obsessed with making kawaii (and oishii too) bento. I bought star, bear and heart shaped musubi makers, cute little bento accessories to go with my already cute sanrio and dollar store bento boxes (i have a big collection ranging from My Melody to some Japanese Power Ranger type lunch box). This weekend I bought a pokemon furoshiki cloth wrap for my bento! I can't wait to use it.

My bento/okazuya favorites:
chiso musubi
yakisoba
chicken karaage
konbu
coroquette
tamagoyaki
tsukemono
