Got the itch...

to shop... surprise surprise. Recently working an extra day a week has paid off, and all i want to do is spend, spend, spend. horrible I know, top of my list is this cute Hamburger shaped bento box. Super kawaii! I also want booties, this romper from FE, and most of all my louis vuitton small agenda.

Want it RIGHT now.

Musubi

Nothing like a fresh hot ume musubi for breakfast! From iyasume on koa ave. So close to billabong, my new fave waikiki eat.

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
